IRCTC SBI Credit Cards – Review
SBI Card seems to be on a product-launching spree, thanks to the upcoming IPO. They have now launched IRCTC SBI Premier credit card. This new credit card along with IRCTC SBI Platinum credit card are probably the only credit cards in India targeting frequent travelers of Indian Railways.
If one recalls, SBI had recently launched two co-branded credit cards, SBI Club Vistara Prime and SBI Club Vistara, in partnership with Air Vistara.
Best Travel Credit Cards in India for 2020
After writing on Air Vistara credit cards last week, I thought of figuring out the best travel credit cards available in India. Simply because when we go on vacation or travel, the single largest expense is the flight cost.
While there are only 2 full-service domestic airlines in India that offer air-miles, the travel credit cards space has lot more choices thanks to few international airlines offering co-branded credit cards locally and few card issuers who allow conversion of reward points to air-miles of multiple airlines.
Of all the travel credit cards available in India, I have listed the best 5 cards below. For others, I have made a comparison table to indicate why they did not make the cut.
Air Vistara credit cards – Detailed comparison
Air Vistara has recently launched two new co-branded credit cards in tie-up with SBI. The SBI Club Vistara Prime credit card and SBI Club Vistara credit card. Given that Air Vistara already has three credit cards in tie-up with Axis Bank. The Axis Bank Air Vistara Infinite credit card, Axis Bank Air Vistara Signature credit card and Axis Bank Air Vistara Platinum credit card. The launch of these new cards is an opportune time to compare and see which cards are best suited.
Citibank Premiermiles: How I saved 100,000 last year on it
I love minting credit card points and I do so by putting my every expense on credit card. Last year, I saved nearly 100,000 on my Citibank Premiermiles card alone. Below are the details on how I did it.
Redeemed Citibank Premiermiles point for flight tickets on MMT
Citibank Premiermiles reward points offer the best value (1 point=45paise) on flights and hotel bookings. Thus, I used my points to book return tickets to Singapore. Two return tickets for Singapore were priced at 46000, but I booked them just 4 bucks!! For rest, I redeemed my Premiermiles reward points. An instant savings of 46,000.
HDFC Diners Club credit cards – Review
It is a well-known fact that HDFC Diners Club offers the best rewards among all Indian credit cards. Their 10x program at present is unbeatable. Recently, HDFC launched a new credit card with Diners Club, the HDFC Diners Club Privilege. This card is a mix of Diners Club Black card and Diners Club Miles. Also, the bank has further enhanced the value proposition of its flagship, the HDFC Diners Club Black card.
Thus, this is an opportune time to compare all the Diners Club cards available here in India to see how they fare with each other.
