RentNo reward——
Details
Status
Verified — no reward
Issuer note
Rent earns no Niyo Coins (excluded MCCs 6513, 7349). SBM MITC Table 07: rental payment fee is 0% for Niyo SBM Global.
Education——Partially verified
Details
Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Educational institutions (MCC 8220, 8241, 8244, 8249, 8299) and legal/accounting/child-care MCCs earn no Niyo Coins, but school MCC 8211 is not in the excluded list. The category depends on the merchant MCC, which DhanChakshu cannot distinguish. SBM MITC Table 07: education payment fee is 0%.
InsuranceNo reward——
Details
Status
Verified — no reward
Issuer note
Insurance earns no Niyo Coins (excluded MCCs 5960, 6300, 6381).
UtilitiesNo reward——
Details
Status
Verified — no reward
Issuer note
Utility payments earn no Niyo Coins (excluded MCCs 4900, 4812, 4814, 4816, 4899, 9399).
Fuel——Partially verified
Details
Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Fuel paid at a pump is a POS transaction and earns no Niyo Coins. The rewards T&C excludes fuel dealers/distributors (MCC 5172, 5983) only; fuel-station MCCs 5541/5542 are not excluded, so an online (ECOM) fuel payment may earn the ECOM rate (20 coins/₹100 domestic, 10 international). An earlier Niyo source said fuel earns nothing (surcharge waiver only); the rewards T&C does not confirm that, so it is partially verified.
Groceries——Partially verified
Details
Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Rewards only on online (ECOM) grocery spend: 20 Niyo Coins/₹100 (2.00% at ₹0.10/coin) domestic, 10 coins/₹100 (1.00%) international; no rewards at POS or tap-and-pay. DhanChakshu cannot tell online from in-store spend in a category, so this is partially verified.
Dining——Partially verified
Details
Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Rewards only on online (ECOM) dining spend: 20 Niyo Coins/₹100 (2.00% at ₹0.10/coin) domestic, 10 coins/₹100 (1.00%) international; no rewards at POS or tap-and-pay. DhanChakshu cannot tell online from in-store spend in a category, so this is partially verified.
Food Delivery——Partially verified

Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Rewards only on online (ECOM) food delivery: 20 Niyo Coins/₹100 (2.00% at ₹0.10/coin) domestic, 10 coins/₹100 (1.00%) international; no rewards at POS or tap-and-pay. DhanChakshu cannot tell online from in-store spend in a category, so this is partially verified.

Issuer note
Rewards only on online (ECOM) shopping: 20 Niyo Coins/₹100 (2.00% at ₹0.10/coin) domestic, 10 coins/₹100 (1.00%) international; no rewards at POS or tap-and-pay. DhanChakshu cannot tell online from in-store spend in a category, so this is partially verified.
Travel——Partially verified
Details
Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Travel booked through the Niyo App earns 30 Niyo Coins/₹100 (3.00% at ₹0.10/coin); other online (ECOM) travel earns 20 coins/₹100 domestic, 10 international; no rewards at POS or tap-and-pay. The channel and the app route cannot be distinguished by DhanChakshu, so this is partially verified.
GovernmentNo reward——
Details
Status
Verified — no reward
Issuer note
Government, tax, court, postal and fine payments earn no Niyo Coins (excluded MCCs 9211, 9222, 9223, 9311, 9399, 9400, 9402, 9405).

Status
Verified — no reward
Issuer note
Railway payments earn no Niyo Coins (excluded MCCs 4011, 4112).
FASTag——Research pending
Details
Status
Research pending
Issuer note
FASTag: the MCC of FASTag recharges is not stated. Wallet / stored-value loads (6540, 6541) are excluded but tolls (MCC 4784) are not listed, and rewards apply only to online transactions, so the result depends on how the recharge is coded. Kept pending.
Jewellery——Partially verified
Details
Status
Partially verified
Issuer note
Not in the excluded-categories list, so online jewellery earns the ECOM rate (20 Niyo Coins/₹100 domestic, 10 international); nothing at POS. Inferred from the absence of an exclusion, confirm in the Niyo App; online vs in-store cannot be distinguished by DhanChakshu.
TelecomNo reward——
Details
Status
Verified — no reward
Issuer note
Telecom payments earn no Niyo Coins (excluded MCCs 4812, 4814, 4816, 4899).

“—” means not established. “Research pending” is not zero: it means DhanChakshu has not finished verifying that category, so it is not counted.
