HDFC Infinia Add-On Cards: Seeking Guidance

[stech18]

I'm holding HDFC Infinia considering add-on cards for family. Can anyone share insights on:

1. Limit: Is there a maximum number of add-on cards allowed? I read somewhere it's 3, Can anyone confirm it.
2. Relationship: Must add-on cardholders be blood relatives?
3. How do we add guests on domestic lounges? Does Mastercard variant accepted in lounge or will always have to use priority pass?

Your experiences and advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

1. yes it’s 3
2. yes need to be directly related, eg. wife, child, parent etc.
3. just use the add on card for domestic lounge and add on priority pass given with it for international

Is there any check or documents for point 2?

most likely as they will do KYC or check the HDFC account of the add on card holder. I didn’t need to submit anything as i used my wife’s customer id while applying.

U can get 4th add on by applying offline through branch. (Add on card application form)but for family member only . Inlaws count. I know 2 parent card holders with 4 add on cards

let them use their priority pass everywhere as it has unlimited usage both domestic and internationally

I think it would not allow to complete application online after 3

I just applied from net banking and looks like if the customer have hdfc account then they don’t do any checks. Not even the last name.
I received sms instantly that will receive the card in 3 days.

Does anyone know if add on card will also be metallic? I actually wanted to be plastic as easy to carry below mobile cover without scratches 😀

1. Usually it’s 3, but with product approval one can avail 4.
2. Not necessary, if the user is existing hdfc customer just input their customer ID and select a relationship. Hdfc doesn’t actually verify.
3.Guest access will be charged through PP.

I've 1 add on card and I always use PP for myself and add on member for both domestic and international lounges, never been charged.

Do you use a single PP for primary and guest at once ?

 

[aashish2137]

No, separate PP. But I've heard people using the same PP twice and it's free as well because it counts as 2 visits and Infinia has unlimited lounge visits. You'd be charged if you swipe it once but add a guest to it.

Yes many lounges ask for multiple cards for multiple people. They don’t allow same card to be swiped twice. Not sure about pp but I faced this for cc

Yea, it changes from lounge to lounge. Recently at Delhi t2, they offered to swipe it twice but I had separate PPs so I had to stop them.

How do we apply for an add on card for Infinia, if my spouse does not have an HDFC account?

 

[Deleted member 11974]

fill a form and submit it in the branch

Hi, I got add-on card for my wife and both CC and PP have different numbers to my cards. Are the reward points and gyftr voucher limits also separate?
