BOB Eterna LTF Offer: Unlimited Lounge Access + 5X Rewards!

Though LTF is good, any specific use case for this for someone having couple of premium cards? Have IDFC wealth too but not used for months as even offers are more on debit than credit card.

It’s difficult to use this card honestly if you don’t have a lot of UPI spends and specially if you already have Infinia/EPM sort of cards.
However, it has milestone based rewards so if you are able to spend 5L in a year you get 20k points (5k Rs) which takes its normal reward rate to 1.75% on normal non-accelerated spends. For first year you get additional 10k points (2.5k Rs) that takes its reward rate to 2.25% on normal spends if you achieve 5L spends in a year.

Now, if you consider accelerated reward rate of 3.75% on dining, online, international & travel, the reward avg. reward goes further up. 5k points cap.

So good for international spends - 3.75% reward rate against 2.36% forex so net positive gain of +1.39% till abt 40k spends. Even if it goes beyond that forex markup will avg out to bare min. (0.4-0.6%) which too is great.
Best domestic lounge network.
Rupay variant can be used for UPI spends.

If this makes sense to you, go for it; otherwise, no harm in passing it.
 
Does BoB Eterna has lounge access in Delhi T3 Arrival? Read somewhere in community but could not find in official list

Thanks that was best summary and assessment of this card. Though got approved will not do KYC. I have EPM and DCB and even Atlas. Maybe 3-4 return travel in the year..other cards enough for lounge access and upi spend may not be high.

Thanks this has been most clear evaluation of this card. Though approved, I think I skip.
Good decision. I took this card out of fomo and I hardly see a single case where could I use this one.

I took the bait of unlimited airport lounge access without realizing the 40K ₹ spend criteria.

When you have other Prem cards no point in diverting spends to this card for lounge.
 
Just inform all BOB Eterna RuPay JCB credit card users — you all can easily unlock unlimited airport lounge access. DM ME if anyone wants to know. Only for RuPay users.

RuPay variant - You will also get 25% Cashback on International spent but only on selected countries.


Also get scan and score offer (working on online UPI transaction too) -


I have BOB Eterna JCB Rupay CC. Please guide on how to get unlimited lounge access and 25% on International spends
