Indusind Legend Reward System

codenerd

TF Ace
Hi,
I recently got Indusind LEGEND CC LTF and was exploring its rewards structure.
Even though its LTF (I didnt pay even a single rupee as renewal and hence didn't get any joining benefits) but it still is very useful.

Its reward rate as I checked:
On weekdays - 1 RP/100 rs
On weekend - 2 RP/100 rs

This means on weekends it basically gives 1RP/50rs spent. This is same as AMEX Gold charge card/AMEX Smart Earn and other AMEX variants.
But the catch is that in case of AMEX, if we consider the worst redemption method - cash redemption of points, then we only get 0.25p/point whereas in case of IndusInd, on weekend spend u get 0.75p/point.

This means by spending 100rs, you get 0.50p return in AMEX for cash redemption
AND
by spending 100rs on IndusInd LEGEND, you get 2 RPs per 100rs which means 0.75p*2 = 1.5rs/100rs spent.

Basically 1.5% returns on legend on any offline/online spend on weekends. This according to me is a good rewards return as compared to amazon icici card which gives flat 1% CB on all online offline spends but not as good as Axis Ace's 2%return.

But again not everyone gets Axis ACE.

So in my opinion, the rewards structure of Indusind Legend, plus lounge offer plus the ability to keep Indusind Select account at 0MAB by linking Indusind Legend credit card to your savings account makes it a very good to have card.

Please share your views about this comparison if I am missing any card like SBI cashback card or anything.. I dont have much idea about that..

NOTE:
If you get this card as LTF, dont expect to get Priority Pass which means no International Lounge. You wont get any lucrative benefit which is mentioned on the website which you can only get if you pay the joining fees.
They do mention movie offers (BOGO) which you will actually get with LTF card also, but I personally was never able to use IndusInd's movie offers as they always are some weird quota based on BMS. I wonder if anyone ever was able to use movie offers from IndusInd Cards.

Legend Rewards Redemption T&C: IMPORTANT: Do check out airline transfer options also. Looks lucrative as compared to AMEX where
  • 3 Amex MR Points = 1 Club Vistara Point (transfer ratio)

This is not the USP for Legend, name of this card itself not justified first of all. Ever booked a BMS ticket with legend card? Most of the time it's not allowing due to limited quota. BTW when was easydiner 1 year offer came out? 😀
The USP was I think before they started making it LTF and quite a few years before I got the card ( got it last year). The huge fees and benefits recovered the money but now it has been devaluated too much.

That 9999 was joining fee, which we haven't paid for LTF card. This documents generally won't have LTF related things. The fees and charges are updated for other things like, EMI, limit overdraft and etc.. Don't worry, Legend is LTF only.

Is there anyway to confirm about LTF status?

I got Legend card delivered today. But nothing in mentioned in the enelope document. (I apllied directly from official website)
 
Hi,
Is the IndusInd Legend cc useful wrt. lounge access (especially International lounge access as I see it provides Priority Pass).
Can we get Priority Pass for add on card holders as well?

If not, can you suggest some LTF credit cards that provide International lounge access/Priority Pass?

legend only gives complimentary pp membership.
usage would be chargead 32$ per vistit.
NO card which is given as LTF openly would provide international lounge access free of cost.
If you are able to get tata nue cards infinity variant or regalia/regalia gold as LTF then you would get international lounge access for free

Oh, I didn't realise the access is chargeable. Thanks for the heads up!
 
Doesn't the Legend have a Rs. 99 + GST Redemption fee? If so, the reward rate would be less than projected.

Also, the Priority Pass lounge visits are chargeable, i.e. not as good as it it's hyped up to be.
