Bottom Line

The CheQ AU Credit Card looks like a fresh and slightly different option in the market, mainly because of its LED feature. It is a good option for people who spend a lot online, especially on platforms like Amazon, Flipkart, food delivery, and travel.

The reward system is decent, but the real value depends on how you redeem the points. If you use them for travel or shopping, the value is better, while using them for bill payments gives a lower return. The annual fee is reasonable for new credit card users and can be waived.

However, if you already hold an AU First Bank Credit Card, then you can not apply for this credit card, but if you don’t hold any AU card and you already use the CheQ app and spend a lot on online shopping, food, and travel, this card can be useful.
