IDFC First Bank Mayura Super Premium Credit Card & Ashva Premium Credit Card (Both Metal Cards) Launched
- Thread starter BVC
- Start date
I had almost made up my mind to apply for Ashwa for the free movie tickets alone. We (family of four) watch a lot movies (around four per month) and do not have any BOGO cards. I was seriously considering applying for Ashwa for the BMS BOGO offers alone which would cover two movies a month (2 free tickets + VISA Infinite offer). However there seems to be a catch.
For some reason IDFC cards allow only one free ticket per transaction. So no matter you book 2, 3, or 4 tickets you get only one free! If you need two free tickets on booking four, you have to book it in two separate transactions which introduces another line of hassle. And that too for a paid card!
These guys are hell bent on making everything so difficult! Oh how I miss the Magnus!

Every where we miss Magnus, that was from another league in total.
For Ashva and Mayura??
As they didn't mention anything related to wallet spends under excluded category:
- Done 500*4 txns on Amazon Pay. Let's see, how it goes.
- Done 500*4 txns on Amazon Pay. Let's see, how it goes.
I have not done 4 eligible transactions yet, today only completed.
2.36% yes .
No Didnt load wallet, bought Apay vouchers.
wallet loads will be charged 2%+GST using Credit cards.
Sometimes doing same value txn, bank will block the card for security reason. Have faced multiple times with SBI, dont want to get to that mess.
For the combination of Wealth CC and Mayura CC, if we are spending less than 20K per month go for Mayura for 2X more points. But on incremental spends beyond 20K both give only 10X.
@Everybody different txn amount helps in tracking also, if by chance some txn fails.. it will be very very difficult to explain to customer care which txn failed if amount of all txn is same
It will work

Overall Verdict:
IDFC launched cards just to fill the void of the paid metal cards in their portfolio. There are no super premium nor premium benefits on these cards, but the name and legacy they used is watchable to promote Indian names. At this price point they have maintained spend base access to Lounges, Golf, Spa etc.. and reward rate is not also good at this price point. Recommended only for Joining benefits.
