For people having a low credit score or no credit history at all, it becomes difficult to start their credit journey as they don’t get approved for a credit card.

Yes Bank, being a major card issuer in India, offers various credit cards best suited to different categories and add-on cards can also be issued under the primary cards. Though the supplementary cards do not have as many benefits as the primary cards, some of the Yes Bank Add-On Credit Cards come with decent privileges like reward points, lounge access, and many more.
