The Axis Bank Olympus credit card is one of the latest additions to the Axis Bank credit card portfolio. It boasts several advantages and can compete with many Indian super-premium cards. With this card, you’ll earn 1 EDGE Mile for every ₹100 spent domestically and 2 EDGE Miles for every ₹100 spent internationally. While this reward rate may seem low, you may be surprised to learn that 1 EDGE Mile equals 4 Partner Points. This means you would earn 4% rewards on domestic spending and 8% on international spending. Additionally, since this card charges a Forex markup fee of 1.8% + GST on international spends, the reward rate on foreign spends actually comes to 5.8%, which is quite impressive. In addition to the high reward rate and easy redemption methods through Travel EDGE, one can easily convert 7.5 lakh EDGE Miles in a year to various flight and hotel partners. Apart from the rewarding rate of returns, this card offers exclusive airport privileges such as unlimited domestic and international lounge access, airport transfers, and concierge services. Those who have a passion for golf can enjoy eight complimentary golf sessions each year with the provision to earn more on each spending of ₹50,000 or more. You might be wondering where luxury comes into play in all of this. Well, with this card, you’ll also receive a complimentary Taj Epicure membership, which unlocks new doors and offers for cardholders.

Etihad Guest SBI Premier Credit Card

SBI tied up with the UAE-based Etihad Airways airline and launched two travel credit cards in 2019: Etihad Guest SBI Credit Card and Etihad Guest SBI Premier Card. Needless to say, the Premier version offers more benefits and also carries a higher annual fee. Back then, the travel industry was one of the booming industries in the country. SBI probably launched this card considering that the travel-related spends accounted for 33% of the overall card spends in the SBI credit card portfolio at the time of launch of the card (certainly not the case now, due to the COVID pandemic). Also, Dubai is one of the favorite destinations among Indian travelers as there is a fairly large diaspora of NRIs in Dubai and many Indian HNIs (high net-worth individuals) frequently travel to Dubai on business trips. Etihad Guest SBI Premier card earns you Etihad Airways AirMiles (called Etihad Guest Miles) for every Rs. 100 spent using the card (number of AirMiles earned varies depending upon the category of spends). You also get many travel-related welcome benefits and milestone advantages with the premier card. Keep reading to know more about the card:
