IndiGo Axis Bank Credit Card

The IndiGo Axis Bank Credit Card is the entry-level variant among the IndiGo co-branded cards offered in partnership with Axis Bank. Designed for budget-conscious travellers, this card focuses on helping frequent IndiGo flyers earn BluChips at a low annual cost.

Available at a joining and annual fee of ₹799 + GST, the card offers a 1,200 IndiGo BluChips welcome voucher, which can be used for future flight bookings with IndiGo. While it does not provide premium travel benefits like international lounge access, it covers the basics well, including accelerated rewards on IndiGo bookings and a quarterly domestic lounge visit. This card can also be used for UPI payments since it is available on the RuPay network.

For those who primarily fly with IndiGo and want a simple, affordable travel card without paying a high annual fee, this card can serve as a practical starting point.

    Bottom Line

    The IndiGo Axis Bank Credit Card is the basic variant, while the IndiGo Axis Premium Credit Card offers more benefits at a higher annual fee. Those interested in an IndiGo co-branded credit card can choose between these two options based on their budget and travel needs.

    While the reward rate is decent, it can feel slightly confusing because IndiGo BluChips do not have a fixed value. Even so, at an affordable fee, this card can be a practical choice for someone looking for a simple card with basic travel benefits.
