Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)


Q. What is a Credit Card?

A credit card is an instrument to help you make instant credit based transactions.

Unlike debit cards which are linked to your bank accounts and debit the corresponding amount for every transaction, credit cards offer you the flexibility to make transactions on credit independent of your account balance. These amounts however are repayable at the end of a pre-specified credit period, and each credit card involves a credit limit beyond which transactions cannot be made.


Q. How to Apply for a Credit Card?

You can apply for credit card with Axis Bank :-


:- Online by checking out Axis Bank credit cards

Q. What is a credit card limit?

The credit card limit, also known as the credit limit, is the limit assigned to the cardholder by the bank or fixed by the issuing company. This indicates the maximum amount one can spend on their credit card and is determined on the basis of the credit score given by the credit rating agency TransUnion CIBIL Ltd. (Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited).


It is important to note that the total outstanding or the total transactions made through this card, which also include the associated fees and charges, should not be above the credit limit.


As a first-time user of a credit card, you will receive a lower credit limit considering that the bank is not familiar with your spending pattern and your ability to make your credit card bill payment.

Apply Now :- https://ekaro.in/enkr20230316s2249515

Q. What is the minimum credit score for a credit card?

The credit score of a credit card reflects the creditworthiness of the cardholder. This means if you make purchases or transactions with your credit card and settle the credit card bill payment by the due date, your credit score will be high.


As per the credit rating agency, TransUnion CIBIL Ltd. (Credit Information Bureau (India) Limited), try and maintain a minimum credit score of 750 to ensure better offers and quicker approval on new credit cards. On the other hand, a CIBIL score of 900 indicates high creditworthiness, and such a score will enable you to get better benefits when it comes to your credit card.


The CIBIL score, as it is called, is an important criterion that will be considered by your bank or the credit card company before they issue a new credit card to you.


However, it is important to note that the credit score may be subject to changes periodically.


Q. Do credit cards come with any airport lounge benefits?

Yes, there are many credit cards that let you enjoy credit card rewards such as airport lounge benefits such as airline customer service, free Wi-Fi connection, comfortable seating arrangements and refreshments while you wait for your boarding call. It is advised that you check the product features of your credit card to know more about these benefits.


While some of these services may be free of cost, other benefits may incur additional charges based on the terms and conditions of your bank or credit card company.


Under the Axis Bank Airport Lounge Access Program, there are different types of credit cards that offer limited or unlimited complimentary airport lounge access across different cities on domestic and international flights. However, Axis Bank does not guarantee the benefits and privileges at the participating airport lounges, which may be subject to the guidelines of the airport management.


Q. What does "minimum due" mean on a credit card statement?

Each month, when you receive your credit card statement, you need to make the credit card bill payment to avoid any penalties. However, to ease out the process, you are required to pay a "minimum amount" before the due date so that a late fee is not levied. Once this amount has been paid, interest rates will be charged on the pending amount.


To ensure that you do not have to face the hassle of late payment fees, ensure that you pay the total amount instead of the minimum amount before the due date.


Q. Does my credit card number change when I renew?

Your credit card should be used for digital payments as and when you need to use it. However, it is not compulsory to use your credit card each month. Furthermore, your credit card will not be cancelled in case you do not make payments on the card for a particular month.


However, there will be applicable annual fees that you may be required to pay if you don’t use your credit card for a long time.


Q. What should I do when my credit card is lost?

In case you happen to lose your credit card or if it is stolen, immediately access your mobile banking application or log in to your internet banking account to block your credit card. Alternatively, you can also reach out to the customer care of your bank or credit card company to inform them of the loss so that they can block your credit card soon.


Q. Can I get Credit Card Online?

Yes, you can apply for credit card online on the Axis Bank website. Once you provide your details such as mobile phone number, income, PAN Number, etc. (for a new customer). The card limit will be fixed based on your income number. You can also apply using the Axis mobile app.

If the card is an international credit card, it can be used for transactions – both online and offline.

For instance, you can choose to use it only for online shopping but not at POS or ATMs, and so on.
