My Experiance
I followed the payment process described above and made a test payment of Rs. 35,000 to my own account.
Magicbricks states that it typically takes up to 4 working days to transfer the rent to your landlord’s bank account. However, in my case, the rent was transferred within just 30 minutes.
Magicbricks keeps you informed by sending notifications via SMS and email once the payment has been transferred to the landlord’s account.
Bottomline
Magicbricks is definitely a strong option for paying rent by credit card, alongside competitors like NoBroker and RedGirraffe. NoBroker offers similar processing fees and payment options, but Magicbricks also provides PayZapp offers, making it even more attractive.
When using Magicbricks to pay rent by credit card, the transaction is reported as a utility payment. Some credit cards, such as Amex, may not offer reward points on utility payments. However, you might still be eligible for milestone benefits and annual fee waivers where applicable.
