Questions people ask

Which online shopping and groceries card gives the most on online shopping?

Among the cards we compare, the CASHBACK SBI Card from SBI Card is first, at 5% value back on online shopping. Rates are capped on most cards, so check the monthly limit on its page.

Is there a lifetime free option?

Yes: CheQ AU Credit Card (AU Small Finance Bank), Amazon Pay ICICI Bank Credit Card. They charge no joining or annual fee on the bank's own terms.

Which of these cards work on UPI?

PhonePe SBI Card SELECT BLACK, HDFC Bank PIXEL Play Credit Card, CheQ AU Credit Card (AU Small Finance Bank), PhonePe SBI Card PURPLE, Tata Neu Infinity HDFC Bank Credit Card, HSBC RuPay Cashback Credit Card, Tata Neu Plus HDFC Bank Credit Card, RBL Bank ShopRite Credit Card, Jupiter Edge+ RuPay Credit Card (CSB Bank), YES BANK POP-CLUB Credit Card, IDFC FIRST Bank HPCL FIRST Power+ Credit Card. Only RuPay credit cards can be linked to UPI apps, and UPI rewards are often lower than card rewards.

How did you check these numbers?

Every fee, reward rate and eligibility rule comes from the issuing bank's official pages and terms, last verified 20 Oct 2026. Where a bank doesn't publish what a reward point is worth, we leave the rate blank instead of guessing.

Which credit card should I use on Amazon, Flipkart or Myntra?

It depends on the store, since most cards pay their top rate only on named sites. Amazon Pay ICICI pays 5% on Amazon.in for Prime members (3% without); Flipkart Axis pays 5% on Flipkart and 7.5% on Myntra, each capped at ₹4,000 a statement quarter; HDFC Millennia pays 5% on Amazon, Flipkart, Myntra and 7 other merchants, up to ₹1,000 a month. CASHBACK SBI pays 5% on most online spends, not just named sites, up to ₹2,000 a statement cycle.

Which credit card is good for Blinkit, Instamart or BigBasket?

A few cards name these apps. Swiggy BLCK HDFC pays 10% on the Swiggy app, Instamart included, up to ₹1,500 a billing cycle; Tata Neu Plus pays 2% at BigBasket as a Tata brand; Axis Neo gives discounts on Blinkit. Cards with a grocery rate, such as HSBC Live+, go by the merchant's category code, so a quick-commerce order can earn the grocery rate or the lower base rate depending on how it's coded.

Do I get cashback if I buy on EMI?

Usually not on a purchase you convert to EMI later. Amazon Pay ICICI and Flipkart Axis take back the rewards on a purchase later converted to EMI, and HDFC Millennia gives nothing on EMI transactions, even if you close the EMI early. Tata Neu Plus still pays 1% on a merchant EMI taken at checkout, but nothing on purchases converted to EMI afterwards.

Why did I get less cashback than the advertised rate?

Usually a cap, a merchant code or a minimum. Caps: CASHBACK SBI's 5% stops at ₹2,000 a statement cycle and HDFC Millennia's at ₹1,000 a month. Merchant codes: HSBC and HDFC set the rate by how the merchant codes the payment, so a purchase can earn 1% instead of 5% or 10%. Minimums: CASHBACK SBI and Flipkart Axis pay nothing on transactions under ₹100, and Swiggy BLCK HDFC pays nothing on Swiggy orders under ₹249.
