The Central SBI Select and Select + cards offer an accelerated reward points structure where cardholders will earn 20 reward points for every Rs 100 spent at Central stores. Dining and entertainment spend will earn the cardholder 10 points per Rs 100 spent while all other categories will earn them 2 reward points per Rs 100. It also offers up to Rs 5,000 to cardholders.
