What This Card Is Best For

The SPAR SBI Card PRIME is designed for regular shoppers at Landmark Group stores SPAR, Lifestyle, Home Centre, and Max who want the highest possible reward rate on their retail spending. Earning 15 Reward Points per ₹100 (3.75% value-back) at Landmark Stores and 10 Reward Points per ₹100 (2.5% value-back) at restaurants and cinemas, the card consistently delivers strong returns on everyday and lifestyle spending. The welcome and renewal bonus of 12,000 Reward Points (₹3,000) on fee payment each year effectively offsets a significant portion of the ₹2,999 annual charge for loyal cardholders. The tiered Landmark Milestone structure, rewarding spends of ₹40,000, ₹1,00,000, and ₹1,80,000 at Landmark Stores, provides escalating incentives for concentrated spending. An additional 20,000 bonus points on ₹5 lakh overall annual spend brings the cumulative milestone ceiling to 58,000 Reward Points worth ₹14,500. With 8 domestic lounge visits and complimentary Priority Pass access with 4 international visits per year, the card suits frequent shoppers at Landmark outlets who also travel occasionally and value airport comfort. 

Overview 

Co-brand Partnership with Landmark Group: SPAR SBI Card PRIME is a co-branded credit card issued by SBI Cards and Payment Services Ltd in partnership with the Landmark Group, one of India's largest retail conglomerates. Landmark Group operates Lifestyle, Home Centre, Max Fashion, and SPAR Hypermarkets. Cardholders earn the highest reward rate on purchases at all of these retail brands, both in-store and online. 

Reward Structure (Tiered by Category): The card earns 15 Reward Points per ₹100 at Landmark Stores (Lifestyle, Home Centre, Max, SPAR), 10 Reward Points per ₹100 on Dining and Movies, and 2 Reward Points per ₹100 on all other non-fuel retail purchases. The redemption rate is 4 reward points = ₹1. Reward Points can be redeemed instantly at all Landmark Store outlets or converted to Landmark Rewards at 1 Landmark Reward = ₹0.60, unlocking dual-brand value. 

Welcome and Renewal Bonus: On payment of the joining fee, 12,000 Reward Points (equivalent to ₹3,000) are credited to the cardholder's account within 30 days.

Milestone Benefits (Overall Annual Retail Spends): An additional 20,000 bonus Reward Points are earned on achieving overall annual retail spends of ₹5,00,000 across all eligible categories. Combined with the Landmark Store milestones, the total cumulative milestone ceiling is 58,000 Reward Points worth ₹14,500 per year. 

Lounge Access (Domestic): 8 complimentary domestic airport lounge visits per year, capped at 2 per quarter. This benefit is provided directly through the card without a separate spend condition. 

Lounge Access (International via Priority Pass): Cardholders receive a complimentary Priority Pass membership worth US$99. The benefit includes 4 complimentary international lounge visits per year (2 per quarter). After exhausting the complimentary quota, each additional visit is charged at US$27 plus applicable taxes.

Pay in Full Monthly
Clear the entire outstanding balance by the due date each month to avoid finance charges of 3.75% per month, which would negate all reward value earned on the card.
Avoid International Use Without a Forex Card
The 3.5% foreign currency transaction fee makes this card expensive for overseas spending. Pair it with a dedicated zero-forex card when travelling internationally.

Things To Know

Important information about this card
  • The Annual Fee Is Not Waivable: There is no published spend-based annual fee waiver for SPAR SBI Card PRIME. However, the 12,000 Renewal Reward Points (₹3,000) credited on each renewal fee payment effectively recover the ₹2,999 renewal charge each year, provided the cardholder uses the points at Landmark Stores or converts them to Landmark Rewards.
  • Value Is Maximised at Landmark Stores: The 15X earn rate (3.75% value back) applies exclusively to Lifestyle, Home Centre, Max, and SPAR. Spending outside these stores and outside dining/movies earns only 2X (0.5%), making the card less rewarding for general everyday use compared to flat-rate cashback cards.
  • Milestone Spends Are Landmark-Specific: Three of the four milestone tiers (₹40,000, ₹1,00,000, ₹1,80,000) require spending specifically at Landmark Stores. Only the top-tier 20,000-point milestone is based on overall retail spend. Cardholders who do not concentrate their spending at Landmark outlets will not achieve the Landmark-specific milestones.
  • Priority Pass Includes Complimentary International Visits: Unlike some other SBI cards, where Priority Pass membership provides no complimentary visits, SPAR SBI Card PRIME includes 4 complimentary international lounge visits per year (2 per quarter). Additional visits are charged at US$27 plus taxes per visit.
  • Reward Redemption Outside Landmark Stores Incurs a Fee: Redeeming points at Landmark stores directly at POS incurs no redemption fee. However, redeeming through the SBI Card Rewards Catalogue at sbicard.com attracts a ₹99 per redemption request fee. Plan larger redemptions to minimise the per-request charge impact.
  • Flexipay Is Not Available to Add-on Cardholders: Only the primary cardholder can avail of the Flexipay and Balance Transfer on EMI facilities. Add-on cardholders are not eligible. The Flexipay conversion window is 30 days from the transaction date.
  • Finance Charges Are Significant: Finance charges of 3.75% per month (45% per annum) apply on any balance not cleared in full by the payment due date. Carrying a revolving balance will far outweigh any reward points earned, making a full monthly payment essential to realising value from this card.
  • Foreign Currency Fee Applies: A 3.5% foreign currency transaction fee applies on all international transactions, making this card expensive for overseas spending. Consider a dedicated zero-forex markup card for travel abroad.
  • Card Is Positioned in the Shopping Segment: This is a co-branded retail card, not a travel or general rewards card. It does not offer hotel memberships, golf benefits, concierge services, or enhanced travel insurance beyond lounge access. Users seeking broad lifestyle or travel privileges should consider other SBI Card premium options.
  • Contactless Limit and Security: Contactless (tap-to-pay) transactions of up to ₹5,000 do not require a PIN. Transactions above ₹5,000 require PIN entry. If the card is waved multiple times at the reader, Visa payWave's unique security key ensures only one transaction is processed.

The SPAR SBI Card PRIME is designed for users who want to maximize their credit card benefits effectively.

Do's

  • Route all Lifestyle, Home Centre, Max, and SPAR purchases through this card to earn 15 Reward Points per ₹100 (3.75% value-back), the highest available rate on the card
  • Redeem your accumulated Reward Points instantly at Landmark Store checkout for immediate on-bill savings without any redemption fee
  • Plan your Landmark Store spending to hit the three milestone tiers (₹40,000, ₹1,00,000, ₹1,80,000) to unlock cumulative bonus Reward Points worth up to ₹9,500 beyond regular earnings.
  • Apply for the Priority Pass Card at sbicard.com to activate the 4 complimentary international lounge visits per year (2 per quarter) included in the card
  • Use all 8 domestic lounge visits (2 per quarter) each year by checking participating lounge lists at sbicard.com before travel

Don't

  • Don't use this card as your primary card for general everyday spending. The 2X base rate (0.5%) on non-Landmark, non-Dining/Movies spends is low compared to flat cashback cards
  • Don't miss the annual fee payment; the 12,000 bonus Reward Points (₹3,000) are credited within 30 days of fee payment and form a core part of this card's annual value proposition
  • Don't use this card for international transactions, given the 3.5% foreign currency transaction fee. Pair it with a zero-forex card for overseas spending
  • Don't redeem Reward Points in multiple small batches; the ₹99 per redemption fee at sbicard.com reduces net value; consolidate into fewer, larger redemptions
  • Don't carry a revolving balance; finance charges of 3.75% per month (45% p.a.) will far exceed any reward points earned on the card
