Any reference for LTF ICICI Card for Self employed. I want to keep 1 ICICI card for offers.

there are 3 ways
1. Open an account in ICICI and wait for pre-approved offer - this may take some time and it totally depends on how u maintain the account and ur relationship with the bank

2. Apply for Amazon pay ICICI CC from amazon app use it for a few months u might get a pre approved offer from ICICI
- I'm in similar situation, I've Apay cc and it's been 6 months but I did not get any card offer . it totally depends on ur luck and remember that they stopped sourcing their core cards on LTF basis through twitter which most of the ppl followed few months ago

3. Apply for their cards offline and submit ITR they will review ur application.

The method I'd suggest:
open account-> apply for Amazon pay cc-> within a few months u will get any core card as pre approved and it would be mostly LTF - 99.99% works

Even if Self Employed is earning 50 lakh+...Banks are vary of offering Credit Card to self employed......Try with a bank with whom you have more than decade relationship else they will reject the application

Did you not get any pre approved offers so far?

That's not the case. Except icici, all top 10 cc issuers give without income proof, without savings account

The biggest challenge for self employed is that 90% of them have same home and office address...Bank clearly mention that if the address is same, application will be rejected....

My mother is self-employed and she too has a similar trend in LE and pre-approved CCs after opening her account in 2021

In ICICI without an account, it's not that easy to acquire a CC for a self-employed person even his/her credit profile is excellent
this is what I observed in the last 3-4 yrs
