Education Spend Is Moving Onto Cards
Professional Services and Membership Organizations (31 codes) covers licensed professional work and membership bodies, but the code drawing the most search interest in this range is MCC 8299 (Schools and Educational Services-Not Elsewhere Classified) — a reflection of how much ed-tech, coaching-platform, and tuition spend in India now happens by card rather than cash or bank transfer.
Cards offering an "education" reward category typically match against MCC 8299 alongside more specific school- and college-fee codes elsewhere in this same range. Since education spend can be large and infrequent, it's worth confirming the exact code a platform uses before assuming a purchase will qualify for bonus rewards.
