Throughout the year, credit card issuers in India frequently introduce various spend-based offers to encourage increased spending and provide incentives for holding a credit card. These promotions are often exciting, as they include regular rewards and bonuses. Recently, Standard Chartered, which does not often participate in such offers, has introduced its own spend-based promotion for credit cardholders.
Customers with Standard Chartered credit cards can receive a free Times Prime membership voucher worth ₹1,299 by spending a minimum of ₹2,500. This offer is particularly appealing because the spending requirement is relatively low and easily achievable.

This is a targeted offer, available only to select customers who have received official communication from the bank. It will be valid from February 18 to March 15, 2025.
Offer Terms
- This offer cannot be combined with any other promotions from Standard Chartered Bank.
- Qualified customers will receive their voucher within 90 days after the end of the offer period. Each customer is eligible for only one voucher during this time.
- The following transactions do not qualify for meeting the spending criteria on the credit card: ATM cash withdrawals (6010, 6011, 6012), wallet transactions or gift card purchases (MCC-6540), unsuccessful transactions, and those that were canceled or rejected by the bank. Additionally, transactions that are followed by partial or full reversals, as well as those canceled by the cardholder, also do not count toward the criteria. Please keep these exceptions in mind when considering eligible spending.
- NRE and NRO cardholders are not eligible for this offer.

Bottom Line
Those Standard Chartered Credit Cardholders who have received official communication from the bank should definitely take part in this spend-based offer as the required spending amount of ₹2,500 is quite low. One can easily get Times Prime membership for free on top of earning regular rewards just by spending ₹2,500. Another reason for some to opt for this offer can be the expiration of the free Times Prime membership on Visa Credit Cards offer.
Remember to be eligible for the free Times Prime membership, users would need to spend ₹2,500 before 15th March 2025.
