Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum salary for a credit card?

Most banks require a minimum monthly income of ₹15,000 to ₹25,000. For premium cards, the requirement can be ₹50,000+.

How to apply for a Lifetime Free (LTF) credit card?

You can apply for LTF cards directly through our platform. Popular options include Amazon Pay ICICI, IDFC First Millennia, and Dhanlaxmi Bank Platinum.

Can I get a credit card without income proof?

Yes, you can get a secured credit card (like IDFC First WOW) against a Fixed Deposit without showing income proof. This is great for students and homemakers.

Does checking my eligibility affect my credit score?

No. Checking eligibility on our platform is a 'Soft Inquiry' and does not impact your CIBIL score. Only when you submit a formal application to the bank, a 'Hard Inquiry' is done.
