Scapia Federal card is a no brainer for zero forex its LTF, 2 pc returns, unlimited domestic lounge access, or RBL WORLD Safari, if you push it hard they provide it LTF.

I was considering IDFC Wow - but actually other banks have better forex rates than IDFC. Just looking at zero markup might not tell the whole story.

In the last 25+ years of my CC journey, I had used (n closed) OVER 30 different cards from many banks - like Andhra Bank, Bank of Baroda, Bank of India, SBI, ICICI, AMEX, Citi Bank, RBL BANK and HSBC.
Many special limited edition cards like AMEX Green, AMEX Gold, HSBC Gold, SBI Employee Gold, BOB Sachin Tendulkar card..... Started using cards when my salary was 1700/- with my first card having a limit of 3000/-. Seen charge slips, bulky impression machines, physical statements, NO-OTP days, No Apps, NO Cibil/Esperian scores, embossed cards...... Seen all.
 
Attaching my credit card portfolio, nothing fancy. Hoping to hit 20 by end of the year.
Started my journey with ICICI Bank secured Credit card almost 12 years back then gradually shifted to unsecured ones. Got most of the good cards listed below this year only.

This is news to me. Have you looked into forex rates of banks?
Which card did you find best with 0 or less forex markup and good forex rate?
 
Scapia Federal card is a no brainer for zero forex its LTF, 2 pc returns, unlimited domestic lounge access, or RBL WORLD Safari, if you push it hard they provide it LTF.
What's the eligibility for world safari ltf?
Can it applied via C2C? If yes, what would be the ideal limit?
