  • Today we have discussed the 3 years update of the HDFC Infinia credit card. We have covered our entire journey over the three years. We have faced nearly all the devaluations made since 2020.
    We have fairly calculated the difference in our returns post all the concerned devaluations.
    Check out our detailed review of HDFC Infinia vs. Axis Magnus:

    I am an Infinia holder for 3 years and I have seen the golden time in terms of the returns, so I can totally agree with your assessment. For flights, please also account for the fact not only 10x came down to 5x, the platform also introduced convenience fees which eroded the benefit even further. A 299 fee on a domestic flight for one person, meant you would burn points earned for 9000 rupees of normal spends. They disguised under partner convenience fee which I think is not entirely true. Thanks

      Hi, I have received an offer to upgrade to Infinia for 1st year free and 2nd year onwards 12500+gst. So if I pay 12500 from 2nd year onwards do I get reward points worth the same amount?

    These devaluations had to happen. It is tough to sustain 33 pc return for long. I use Infinia mostly for Smartbuy or very large purchases. I mostly use Amex cards for normal online purchases, especially gold charge and MRCC.

      Exactly. This is how Infinia should be used.

    • @amitabhmaheshwari
      @amitabhmaheshwari Рік тому +5

      @@bindir1421 No, when you take into account the bonus points that you get on Amex gold and reward cards and redeem those points on the gold collection, your reward rate may easily go higher than 5-6 per cent or even more. Otherwise why will anyone use Amex ? Moreover, Amex gives points on wallet upload, utility and fuel payments (charge cards only). On gold you get 1000 bonus points on spending ₹ 1000 6 times in a calendar month, in rewards card you get 1000 points on spending ₹ 1500 4 times a month and another 1000 points on spending ₹ 20,000 a month.

    Hi Card academy, your videos are very insightful.
    But I’ve a question, as you said that your team member got Infinia card by filling out form based on previous card history(existing credit card limit should be more than 8L and last 6 months spends should be more than 7.5L), I would like to know,
    1. which card did he have previously ?
    2. What was the limit ?
    3. What was the monthly spend ?
    4. While applying for Infinia, did they issue Infinia card based on just previous spends ? Or did they also ask for income proof ?
    I’m asking this because I also want to get Infinia card, currently I’ve Regalia.

    • @CardAcademy
      @CardAcademy  Рік тому +1

      1. Previous card - Diners Club Black
      2. Limit was 6 lakh before it was increased to > 8 lakh
      3. Monthly spend was in the range of 1.2-1.5L
      4. Payslips and bank account statement were submitted with upgrade form. But this should not matter if you meet the limit and spend criteria.
