Earns nothing on

  • No SCoins on cash, wallets, fuel, quasi-cash, gambling and jewellery

Where the sources disagree

  • reward rate: The product page headlines "5% rewards" (accelerated), "10%" (super accelerated) and "37.5%" (SalaryDay Bonus), but the feature document's terms say 5 SCoins are worth ₹1, so 5 SCoins per ₹100 is 1% (10 per ₹100 is 2%, 37.5 per ₹100 is 7.5%). We use the feature document.

Terms the calculator does not value

  • SalaryDay Bonus: on the 1st and last day of each calendar month, SalarySe UPI payments earn 25 SCoins per ₹100 (virtual only card) or 37.5 (physical plus virtual card), unlocked by spending at least ₹5,000 on other days and capped at ₹15,000 of spend a billing cycle (3,750 or 5,625 SCoins). The product page calls the lifetime-free card the virtual-only one, so this paid card is read as the physical plus virtual one (37.5 per ₹100, 5,625 SCoins a cycle); not stated outright.
  • A cap of 10% of the credit limit in SCoins a month applies to base, accelerated and super accelerated rewards (not to the SalaryDay Bonus); the credit limit is the holder's own.
  • Offers shown in the SalarySe app (merchant offers, gift voucher deals) are not published in the bank's documents.
