Frequently asked questions
Which IDFC FIRST Bank credit card is best for fuel spending?
IDFC FIRST Bank Quantum+ Credit Card (FD-secured) returns the most in the CardMasters model — about ₹100 a month on ₹10,000 of fuel spending, ahead of IDFC FIRST Bank FIRST Ashva Metal Credit Card and IDFC FIRST Bank FIRST Mayura Metal Credit Card. The order changes with your spend level because each card's monthly cap binds at a different point, and the annual fee still has to be subtracted.
Do all IDFC FIRST Bank cards earn on fuel spending?
No. Only 4 of 10 IDFC FIRST Bank cards tracked here return anything on this category. The others either exclude it from rewards, cap it at zero, or apply a surcharge that cancels the earn — which is why they are left out of the table rather than shown with a headline rate they do not pay here.
Should I pick a IDFC FIRST Bank card just because I bank with IDFC FIRST Bank?
Only if it wins on your actual spending. An existing relationship can help with approval and sometimes with pre-approved offers, but it does not make the card the best value. Compare this ranking against the same category across all issuers before deciding.
