SBI Card
A genuine cashback card with no merchant restriction on the 5% online rate, undercut by an exclusion list SBI itself says is incomplete — utilities, insurance, fuel, rent, wallets, education, jewellery and railways all earn nothing, 'and more'.
cashback
Genuine cashback, auto-credited to the SBI Card account within two working days of the next statement generation — not reward points requiring separate redemption.

ICICI Bank
A lifetime-free card that pays its best rate on Amazon. Worth holding for Amazon spend; unremarkable elsewhere, and you cannot simply apply for it.
ICICI Bank
An entry-level card whose real value is the lounge and cinema benefits, not the rewards. The reward points earn into a goods catalogue with no published rupee value, so treat the rate as unknown rather than as cashback.
ICICI Bank
A no-fee starter card. Earns the same catalogue points as Coral but without the lounge, cinema or milestone benefits, so the fee saving is most of what distinguishes it.
