Buy Sunglasses for my wife?
I want to buy sunglasses for my spouse as a birthday gift. I have an Amex Platinum Travel Credit Card. What is the best way to do it?

- Recommended method: Buy a Sunglass Hut e-voucher via the Amex ShopWise portal (Reward Multiplier platform for e-vouchers; it replaced the older Gyftr route).
- Key benefits (when available): you can get an instant discount on the voucher (example: 8% off) AND earn accelerated Membership Rewards points (example: 3X on Platinum Travel for ShopWise transactions).
- Cost example (₹10,000 voucher): If ShopWise is offering 8% off, you pay ₹9,200 for a ₹10,000 Sunglass Hut voucher.
- Points example (₹9,200 spend): Platinum Travel base earning is typically 1 MR point per ₹50; with 3X, that becomes ~552 MR points (₹9,200 ÷ 50 = 184 base points; 184 × 3 = 552).
- How to access: Log in to your Amex India account → Rewards & Benefits → open ShopWise (shopwise.giftstacc.com) → search for ‘Sunglass Hut’ voucher → purchase with your Amex Platinum Travel card.
- How to use: Redeem the voucher at Sunglass Hut stores (and/or online) as per brand terms; check validity, eligible outlets, and any exclusions before purchase.
- Why this is usually best: it combines immediate savings (discount) with extra points, so your effective value beats a normal direct swipe in many cases.
- Important note: Discounts, multipliers, and brand availability can change—confirm the current offer and read the latest Terms & Conditions on ShopWise before buying.
- Alternative tip: Also compare against any ongoing Sunglass Hut website/in-store sale or bank offer; if there’s a bigger instant discount there, take that instead (points rarely beat a large upfront discount).
