Hands on Experience with Axis Bank Flipkart Credit Card

By | November 26, 2019

This is a review by our reader Satish Kumar Agarwal who recently got hands on Axis Bank’s newly launched Flipkart credit card.

Flipkart Credit card could possibly be a game changing addition to Axis bank family of credit cards, so much so that it can take Axis bank credit card user base to a high level if managed well by the bank.

Comprehensive features of this Axis bank Flipkart card has already been covered in the card launch article. So this article will cover more about the card application experience as well as some of the useful facts about the card which may benefit prospective card seekers.

My Application Experience

Axis Bank Flipkart Credit Card

Applied for this card via Axis bank website on 23rd July 2019, the day it went open for all to apply. Prior to this date the card was mostly open to previous Axis Buzz credit card users for swapping. Flow of card processing is as below–

  • 23.07.2019- Applied for the card via Apply Now tab on website
  • 25.07.2019- Bank executive visited my house for KYC as I had no prior relationship
  • 21.08.2019- Received email/ sms that card is approved (Cibil enquiry also done today)
  • 27.08.2019- Received Application ref no. for the first time via sms which was not provided even by the executive who came for KYC
  • 30.08.2019- Received sms containing Bluedart AWB for tracking
  • 01.09.2019- Card delivered (Generated Pin via Axis Mobile app)
  • 07.09.2019- Pin delivered by EMS Speed Post

As can be seen card processing time can be quite long, like 35 days in my case when you don’t have any prior relationship with the bank.

Name on the card is printed and not embossed. Card design is as usual but looks vivid and colourful. Credit Limit is almost 1X my salary and among the lowest of the 6 cards I hold.

Things to Know

  • Welcome bonus of 500 Flipkart GV on any spend within 30 days ( I received it via sms link within 2 days of 1st transaction )
  • 1st transaction on Myntra using this card will give you 15% cashback upto 500
  • Most importantly EMI transactions will not earn any cashback
  • Wallet topup/ Gold purchases will not earn any cashback
  • Every Wednesday/ Saturday Axis bank runs good offers on Grofers/ Amazon Pantry/ Big Bazaar
  • Sms received after each transaction confirming the eligible % cashback
  • Cashback to be credited in card account for use in next billing cycle
  • Every billed transaction shows earned cashback against them (completely transparent) in the monthly statement
  • Bank executive told me salary requirement of 60K+ for the card (this may vary from city to city)
  • He also told me 2-3 times that the card is pre-approved for me. As I don’t have any prior Axis relationship so far, only possible reason may be salary north of 60K plus
  • Generated the pin via Axis mobile app as soon as I got the card. Few days later sadly I am unable to use the Axis mobile app as an error is shown everytime saying Customer ID login mismatch. Axis bank support is unable to help and suggests to visit Axis bank branch.

Looking at the past 3 months statement it’s clear that there won’t be any cashback below spends of Rs 100 for general merchants or even uber which falls in 4% cashback category. Can’t say about flipkart though.

I hold Citibank, HDFC, Yes, RBL, ICICI, Kotak apart from this card and this cards statement is much superior and transparent than any of the card I hold. 

Bottomline

Over the past year I have found that Axis bank is not generous in issuing credit cards to non account holders. As Axis is targeting to issue 1 million of this card in first year itself hence even if you don’t have an account, chances are that card may still be issued easily if monthly salary/ ITR/ CIBIL is good enough. Though card processing time could be as long as above.

If opening Axis account relationship is not something you want, better apply this card via website and not through branch, as branch executive may insist that opening an account is mandatory to apply for the card which is not true.

Also if you don’t have any of the Super Premium credit cards and are an avid online shopper, this card along with the ICICI Amazon Pay card will reward handsomely being comparatively easy to get approved.

    I already have ltf axis neo with 40k limit (less limit coz i have 10 other cards also :D) and salary is well above 60k. Will they give me this card or do I need to close my existing card? Any chance of getting this as ltf

      Just call Axis CS and they will easily approve this card in most cases. Though I doubt if they will give it LTF to anybody. May issue LTF to their real HNI customers selectively.

      Just call customer care and tell them u need an upgrade if u already have an axis bank credit card like I did. If you need the old card to keep working, tell them not to close the old card and if you need an add-on, tell them at that time itself. DO NOT FORGET THESE TWO THINGS.
      Getting an ADD-ON with axis bank is the most difficult thing to do unless u do it when u apply. Mutiple follow ups and rejection for some super secret reason.

      I had myzone. This method will not give you LTF. I dont know if they even have LTF for this card.

    I got this card this month. only. I applied for it within the Flipkart App last month. And now I see they running 1000 Rs Flipkart voucher bonus on joining. Should’ve waited a big longer. They sending a detailed SMS after every transaction of how much %cashback I’ll get on the transaction and which billing cycle will show it. Pretty decent card.

      I think the Rs 1000 Flipkart Gift card is for applying for a new Citibank Rewards credit card. The Axis Bank Credit card does NOT come free as there is a joining fee always which they do reimburse with a Rs 500 GV for Flipkart.

      Pls check your Flipkart app and let me know if you are indeed getting this Axis Bank card with GV as I might then be tempted to get this card.

    I have Axis select card already.I was interested in this card also,so wanted to apply this card through the website initially.But,someone mentioned that,you can get this card by calling customer care,If you hold a Axis credit card presently.So,I tried that route and to my surprise,they sanctioned the card within 5 minutes,and the cedit limit is same as my existing select card,2.4 Lakhs.I am very much satisfied,with the customer care of Axis credit cards.

    I’ve applied for this card about 3 times now. They even took my ITR, Bank Statements, etc but since then haven’t heard back. This was way back in August 2019.

    On a slightly similar note, I used to have a MYZONE card with them. Until I started seeing random charges from the UK on it and I immediately called the bank to cancel. They said they would cancel my card and I would be getting a new one in the mail within 10 days. Been over a year now and still nothing.

    Gave up on Axis credit cards with that!

      Can’t exactly compare Millenia with this card. Both have their own advantages n disadvantages. This card is among best offering from Axis bank.
      Whereas in HDFC there are way better cards than Millenia if you are eligible.

        For paying rent via payzapp (redgiraffe) won’t Millenia gives me around 5 percent of the rent and along with the usual promo code of billpay it would be 5 percent plus 200 ?

    I got this card within 10 days of application over phone. I already hold neo and privilege credit card from axis (started closing them). Already earned more than 10k in cashback. It was super helpful in diwali sale when I maxed out 10X of DCB. From my experience I can say this has the most transparent reward experience ever. Few points I want to add.
    1. 5% cashback on flipkart has a cap of 10 transaction in a month
    2. Cashback is rounded off. Transaction of 70 rupees earns 1 Rs cashback for 1.5%. Very useful for small value transaction
    3. As always Axis offers reward point/cashback for wallet loading.
    4. One hack I found is for NPS topup 1% is charged on the amount of investment as surcharge. This card gives back 1.5%. 0.5% profit.

    Reply
    1. Rajkumar

      Pragyan – There is a Payment Gateway Charge for NPS while making payment with Credit Card -(0.90% of the transaction amount + Goods & Services Tax (GST) @ 18%). Is this 1% surcharge includes above 0.9% payment gateway charge?

      Reply
    2. Satish Kumar Agarwal Post author

      Point 3. I did try loading paytm wallet and sms came that this transaction is eligible to earn 1.5% cashback. But when I checked the statement on generation, no cashback provided as its supposed to be wallet loading.

      Reply
    3. Pranab

      @Pragyan, what’s the hack in it (Point 4)??? The 1% (actually 0.944%) surcharge (actually Payment Gateway Charges) in NPS is levied to all credit cards. The cashback (or Reward points) are totally different things. I can use my Infinia card and get 3.33% value back (as reward points).
      The point is, you’ll get 1.5% cashback in all you transactions, not only in NPS.
      If the charges were waived for any particular card, then it could be termed as hack/trick.

      Actually the cashback is not rounded off, they are truncating all decimal digits. Eg.
      purchase for 120 rs,
      1.5% is 1.8 rs
      but axis will give only 1 rs cashback and pocket the 0.8 rs.

      nice trick.

    I’m having this card since 4 months. I had Axis Buzz card (with one add-on) and when applied through Flipkart site, card was instantly generated (similar to ICICI amazon pay).
    The limit was similar to existing Buzz card. My primary Buzz card was deactivated soon after I used this new card, but surprisingly the Add-on card is still active.

    I think you are promoting axis cc service.
    Not reviewing the service, I have bad experience from axis bank cc center. Last 3 years I am using my zone cc on last September, I just upgraded to Flipkart card and added an add on card for my wife at the time of upgrading. No bank executive came to my home for addon card. Poor service by axis bank cc center.
    To be frank I planned for surprise gift to my wife.
    Finally I cancelled the service blocked the card and ended the 7 years bank relations.

    Such a bad experience…

      No visit is required if you take another credit card if u already have one card. Just call customer care and give a request within 7 days card will be attached to account which you can see in axis mobile / net banking and card will reach to you within next 7 days. No document verification, no paper work, nothing, just a call, if u upgrade and you get what u need easily. Axis is best for this service.

    You said “Every billed transaction shows earned cashback against them (completely transparent) in the monthly statement” but they also employ a trick to cheat customers in cashback.

    I have this CC and although Axis says that it gives 1.5% cashback on each transaction, I have noticed that they reduce the cashback in every transaction by removing the decimal points completely. They don’t even round off, they simply remove all decimals. For ex. if u purchase worth 1790, although 1.5% is 26.85 rs but they will give u cashback only of 26. So Axis will pocket the remaining 0.85 rs and they do this in all transactions.

    This is not being transparent, this is just fraud.

    You said Axis is targeting 1 mil customers for this CC, imagine if Axis can cheat 10 rs per customer per monthly bill, they can fraudulently make 1 mil x 12 months x 10 = 12 crore every year just by this trick.

    So trickery in our Indian banks 🙂

      Axis should not have done this. But imagine if they didn’t give points details it would have been much difficult to even calculate.
      So you are right. Forgot to add this point in review.

    2. Abhishek Roy

      @Mungurappa The point is many credit card companies credit the point on the basis of per ₹100(SBI)/₹150 (HDFC)/₹50(AMEX) etc. This is used to calculate point in the multiples of the number mentioned above. So this is not fraud, it’s just the way the bank calculates the points. for eg, whatever may be the spend value. If it is less than ₹150, you’ll not get a single point from HDFC.

      Reply
    3. Rahul

      Rightly said Abhishek. However, I would like to counter that.

      SBI, HDFC & Amex gives 1 point for every Rs.100/Rs.150/Rs.50 spent by you and not a fixed percentage.

      Axis bank Flipkart card has 1.5% cashback. So they should give the complete cashback including the decimal portion.

      Also ICICI bank Amazon pay credit card gives complete cashback including decimal portion.

    4. Prashant Kumar

      plz let me know one thing, are you paying any extra amount while paying to merchant? or you thiink that when you pay with your debit card then you get more than 1.5% cashback? or any other card in this range giving 1.5% cashback on all transavtion? If these are not true then why are you blaming that they are doing fraud? These cashbacks are not given by merchant these are given by Axis bank only, so its their offer to give you what you said its 26 RS or 10 RS . Its given you for free. So be happy and in my openion its one of the best card, as i am already using this card from last 6 month.

    @Mungurappa,
    What about HDFC then? Then don’t give us any points if transaction value is even 149.99!!! Every bank has their own terms & conditions. Terming Axis ‘Fraud’ for denying decimal values is an overstatement. 1.5% value back for a non-premium card is way too much. Even some premium & super premium cards don’t give that much. Only DCB & Infinia (which comes at 10 & 20 times annual fee respectively) have a higher (only 0.166% more cash) value back.

    Reply
    1. Abhishek Roy

      @Pranab How did you come to 0.166% figure? NPS charges 0.9% + GST that amounts to 0.9% + 18% of 0.9% = 1.062% of the total value that you spent for NPS. Considering the fact that HDFC Diners/Infinia/SC Ultimate gives 3.33% as return in the form of RPs, therefore net gain is 3.33%-1.062% = 2.268%. I hope this is clear. Let me know if I am doing any mistake in this or not.

      Reply
      1. Satish Kumar Agarwal Post author

        As per my understanding Pranab was referring to cash credit comparison. As in DCB and INFINIA cash credit will be 1.65 per point as compared to 3.3% if redeemed for Flight tickets or Hotel booking.

    The only reason I got this card was for other spends.
    i have been using this card for 2 months.
    No other card gives blanket 1.5% cashback for all spends. except for dcb &infinia, but they are not giving me either of the cards.
    I saw hsbc cashback 1% on weekdays and 1.5% on weekends. this card is better compared to that.
    Pros:
    – I use ubereats more than Flipkart, so 4% is a good default cashback option.
    – 1.5% default cashback is a good cashback to get behind this card for credit card beginners.
    – All cashback are credited 3 days before the next billing cycle, so overall you need to pay less. which is equivalent to cash in hand at the next billing.
    – Statement is very clear about cashback for each transaction.

    Only downside I am facing is that cashback is rounded down to the lowest value. even if u r eligible for 2.95rs. They will credit you only 2 rs. You won’t lose much in high-value transactions. eg. spending 1495 you will be eligible for Rs. 22.4 but you will be credit only 22 so the effective cashback is 1.47%. but the smaller ones u lose more. eg. if you spend 130 u are eligible for 1.95 but you will be credited only 1 rs which makes effective cashback to 0.76%

    @Abhishek,
    You merged my two replies in one.
    Anyway, your first concern is right. It was a calculation mistake by me. It’s indeed 1.062% for NPS. But the context by Pragyan is totally wrong. It’s never a hack. I mean, how it could be??? We’re getting 1.5% cashback for every transactions, not only NPS. The statement of his a total waste and bogus.
    Coming to your second concern, I’ve already mentioned ‘Cash’ (DCB & Infinia) and further elaborated by Satish. In Axis Flipkart, we’re getting 1.5% (Annual Fee 500); whereas in DCB/Infinia, it’s 1.666%* (Annual Fee 5000/10000). So only 0.166% more CASH benefit but a huge 10/20 times annual fee difference.
    *Considering points conversion to cash, not Flight/Hotel bookings.

    1. Abhishek Roy

      No sane person will use DCB/Infinia to get statement credit or “cash” as you call it. The real benefit of the card is only when redeemed as RPs and not as cash. Plus, the amount of priviledge you get for that amount is unparalleled. Besides, the fees is waived off if you spend more than 5L for DCB and 8L for Infinia. Most owners can meet this criteria. So i think they are great card and in no way can be compared to Flipkart Axis card.

    @Pranab,

    One thing that you have rightly said is 1.5% cashback for a non-premium credit card is quite good. However, comparing DCB/Infinia with this card just on the basis of fees is quite inappropriate. There are many more additional things that these super premium cards offer, the most lucrative being its Smartbuy 10X offer which translates to 16.5% (Cash benefit)

    Axis Bank is a cheat. They have PVR Cinemas as a preferred partner, I always get a message for 4% cashback but the statement only give me 1.5%. I have escalated the matter but to no avail. They don’t respond and there is no respite.
    I am going to close the card before I complete one year. Pathetic service with Axis Bank.

    @Abhishek and GTMAX, I’m not comparing. My sole intention was to discard the ‘Fraud’ statement by Mungurappa.
    In less than 3 months of having Infinia, today (26th Nov) my RP balance is 87718 (after approx 10K points redemption in flights for a colleague). It’ll be at least 300000 in a year. I’m not a frequent traveler (2-3 times a year), yet to have a mark in my passport. So, there’ll definitely be a time when I’ve to redeem my points as statement credit. That’s the reason I consider Infinia rewards rate as 1.666% (16.66 for smartbuy).

      Dont redeem above 100,000 points for statement credit , it attracts Gift tax , our dear friend income tax department will send you a sweet love letter to cough up tax , reward rate will be even lower thereafter , rather splurge on a business class ticket if you end up having 300,000 points at end of year … its just a suggestion

    If one is looking for a LTF card or very cheap annual fees card for just domestic lounge benefits and movie ticket benefits (BOGOF) for 4th card to add to the wallet (other 3 takes care of online spends, intl travel lounge, rewards thru cashbacks), what would you recommend?

    1. Satish Kumar Agarwal Post author

      ICICI Coral cc will fit nicely to your requirement. If you have an account in ICICI bank, you may get it as LTF from time to time or else fee is 500 per year+GST.
      Yes First Preferred is also good LTF card if you are able to get. But movie offer is 25% on BMS and comparatively higher airport lounge access per year plus PP for International lounge access.

        CS executive told me limit will be same and shared between both cards.it seems they given the same limit but not shared between the cards..I have done some transactions on new card and available limit is showing different than the old card..and both have different bill dates and due dates..

    Axis customer support is plain horrible. I already have axis signature credit card and I also have salary account with Axis. I called customer care once in September and once in October to apply to this credit card. They said their sales team will get back to me. Nothing happened. Third time I applied online by providing all the details and then finally their sales person called me to arrange document pickup. So, even though I have salary account + credit card, I had to submit the documents once again. Then for next 1 month, no updates.. The customer care person said that I have to apply for card again. This when they had already made a CIBIL enquiry. Then I had to escalate the issue. After two days, card was approved and dispatched couple of days later. I didn’t liked the packaging much, one of the simplest card packaging I have received. The card has a separate limit than my existing credit card. It’s almost 4X time my monthly take home, so no complaints there.
    The fact that 4% won’t be applicable on MMT/Goibibo with coupons is a very big disappointment.

    Now comes the most horrendous part. A week after receiving the credit card, I get a scam/phishing call. The caller knew I had applied for axis bank credit card. They were asking for last 6 digits of my card, what variant it was (flipkart/neo), were confirming expiry date (since they knew it was issued last month, so they were able to take correct guess) and whether it was mastercard/visa. And I realized that only that information was enough for phishing guys to do an international transaction. Wow. I had a very interesting conversation with the girl trying to scam me. First I fed up all wrong information to her just to see where this was going. Later when I called out on scam, she got angry and started cursing me, saying “we work so hard, it’s not easy to scam people” and then threatened that she is anyways going to transact on my card.
    So somewhere during the process my name, my number and the fact that I was applying for an axis credit card was leaked. And it worries me that a phishing group has my mobile number and name.
    I recently upgraded my Yes and HDFC credit card, and the process was so smooth.

          After 2-3 months in march first week i received call from mumbai sales office asking for what all reasons i didn’t applied the card. Told him to give me card on card basis and he asked if i got diners black he is happy to accept my application. Told him i have citi permier miles instead with good limit and he agreed …. rest all i wrote above how the guy with tablet came for application and was surprised that my application was getting accepted C2C basis. I think it was year end sales target which made it happen.

      Yes, there is indeed some problem in axis bank security system. After a fraudulent transaction with my axis card (which was solve in my favour) I keep block and change card in every six months. And once or twice a year I got msg that some one try to do transaction with my old card numbers and failed as it was already blocked from my end. So always I block my axis card transaction for international from your mobile app and open it on way when ever required.

      Bcoz quite a few old Axis card users got their card converted to this Flipkart card via just a call to Axis cc. May try 2-3 times as Axis cc is quite unpredictable.

      Mis-management, I’m dealing with them for last 10 yrs and when I raise any request ,I anticipate every possible mistake from them. For instance, they have my 5 address, and when I upgrade to vistara from priveledge, they sent the card to my old house despite confirming address twice. So tough to deal .

        Got my card recently, managed to activate Axis Mobile. However, when trying to register for Internet Banking, it is not accepting my customer ID, saying invalid credentials. Called up the customercare, they say only SB account users can register for Net Banking, not available for credit card only users, will have to use Axis Mobile.

          Dear Mahesh
          Same thing happened with me for sometime after getting the card and their CS was unable to solve the problem.
          One fine day (almost a month thereafter) , I tried again and was successful. I think you might have got faulty customer id, because my customer id was likely changed by them due to the same error (without any request from my side).

          Don’t listen to CS. I have only CC with them and netbanking is working for me.
          Though netbanking options are nothing great and on par, in comparison to Axis mobile.

            Dear Satish
            I tried registering again. When I checked on the AxisMobile application, the customer ID was the same, and when I tried registering, unfortunately I got the same result. If you input the Customer ID they say invalid credential, if you input the registered phone number they say your phone number is not linked with us. Its another matter that I do have a customer ID, and my phone number is pretty much registered and working for all credit card services. May be I’ll give it a try after a month or so.
            Would have liked to have the netbanking access. As I happen to be a visually impaired user, and as the Axis Mobile has serious problems in terms of implementing Google’s accessibility norms. The Windows interface on the web is likely to be far more accessible.

    While going through the TnCs of this card, I found that to get the 4% cashback on MMT/Goibibo, we need to apply a coupon code. However, often there are better offers than this 4%, available on MMT/Goibibo. So, has anybody tried doing a transaction without applying the 4% offer promo code, and instead applied the best offer code at that time? If yes, then how much % cashback will you get?

      “Another credit card statement” is not counted as an Income proof.

    I got this card few days back and the limit was said to be shared with my LTF Neo card I already have. But in the app, it shows me same limits for both cards with separate Available Credit. My primary card is above 60% use now (temporary due to an unexpected medical expense). Will I be charged over limit charges if I make a purchase that will make the total credit utilisation of both cards combined above the credit limit of the Neo.

    I had opted this Card with very much excitement and enthusiasm by seeing the offers what you were offering. I was even wondering no other card can beat you in terms of rewards.

    But unfortunately within a short period of time I’m realising there is nothing major rewarding part in your card rather that it was just a gimmick to attract customers and cheat them subsequently.

    I have used this Flipkart Axis Bank Credit Card since last 1 year and spent more than 2.5 Lakhs till date using this card.

    Each month I was seeing some weiered method of computing Cashback.

    This month surprisingly it breached all the public offering it was showing on papers.

    1) Transaction on Flipkart worth Rs.16999/- was credited with Rs.254/- (not even 1.5% , 1.5% will be Rs.254.985) against actual reward of Rs.849.95

    2) Transaction on Phonepe Bill Payment site worth Rs.563/- was credited with Rs.0/- (Not sure whether you are considering Bill Payment as Gold / Fuel purchase). The same site another purchase of similar amount was awarded with 1.5% earlier.

    3) Downward Rounding of Rewards. Doesn’t matter even if it’s 99.9999999 , The Cashback will be just Rs.99.00000000. Not sure what algorithm you are using for not giving exact 1.5% or 5% rewards.

    4) No Rewards for Purchases upto Rs.99.9999 even when it still can reward you Rs.1.5/-

    I feel pitty on you guys for giving such attractive Offers on papers and cheating customers in reality.

    I may be just 1 customer out of 1000 who noticed this. There will be 999 customers who are still using this card without noticing such a huge loot.

    Flipkart, you have some brand value. Please refrain from such partners who doesn’t value of honor what they offer

    All the best !!

      I am using this card since almost last 1 year, but out of more than 40 transactions done at flipkart, this has happened only once last month that they didn’t provide 5% cashback on a single low value transaction. So the journey for me has been satisfying, but if it’s happening repeatedly, then Axis should clear this technical issue asap so as not to loose customers faith and hence business.

            Flipkart Axis Bank Card is my first credit card with no any previous relation with axis bank previously. They have some criteria to check online that you are eligible for CC or not. Its depend on your salary. on the basis of this they will preapproved the card for you but they can reject it during your document verification or address verification. preapproved isn’t mean that your card is approved. it means that there agent will come to you for document pickup.

    Got below message from Axis:
    With effect from 22nd Sep 20, there will be a change in the EDGE REWARDS accrual towards Insurance Premium txns on your Axis Bank Credit card and will be capped to Rs. 5000 per txn.
    Did any once else receive this kind of message?
    We get cashback and not Edge Rewards in case of Axis Flipkart. Will this rule be applicable for Axis Flipkart as well? Like max cashback for Insurance payment for any amount more than 5000 will be capped at Rs 75 (1.5% of 5000)?

    After a big struggle, I have finally got the Flipkart Axis card. I happen to be a visually impaired person. So though the card was preapproved on Flipkart, they initially rejected it on the basis of my disability. I don’t mind application rejection, it happens, but not on this ground. So fought it out, made multiple calls to the customercare, and eventually chanced on an RM who used to work for ICICI earlier and had worked on my application issue when I had a similar fight with ICICI. I provided all the relevant RBI and GOI regulation on non-discrimination for disabled people, and after multiple back and forth, including declining the application once more, they have eventually given me the card.
    On the actual card use itself, there are a couple of initial difficulties. You have the option to set the pin on AxisMobile, but effectively don’t work if you are a CC only user, as the app needs to be authenticated and you need a pin or NetBanking for the same. So I had to go to IVR to set pin, and they need you to enter card number really quickly to set it. Was difficult but managed. The other issue is that if you are a CC only user, you can’t activate NetBanking.
    Hope Axis would improve on these fronts as well.

    Hi Sid

    I have noticed something odd in Axis Bank Credit limit when you have 2 cards. I recently got Axis Flipkart card (September 2020) in addition to another Axis card (using since 2018).

    I got a 50% limit enhancement offer last week and took it. It was only applied to the old card and not the Flipkart card.

    Customer service says the old limit is shared and enhanced limit is only available to the old card. He also said atleast 6 months must pass before limit enhancement offer is available on new cards.

    So I guess I’ll have to check in March/ April 2021 for new limit to apply to Flipkart card.

    Anyone experienced this?

    Reply
    1. Mahesh S. Panicker

      Think it usually happen with multiple cards with shared limit. I have something similar with ICICI. My Visa Platinum and Amazon Pay ICICI cards have shared limits, and then in October 2019, I got a limit increase that applied only to the Platinum card. I was told that a limit increase for a card would be possible usually after at least a year of use and so the Amazon Pay card will have to wait. Its another matter that even after a year, they haven’t provided a limit increase for that card.

    Any update on decline of transactions thru payzapp on FK Axis card?? Bank refuses to even acknowledge the existence of such issue. Payzapp side, they are clear as the transactions are thru with all other cards..

          Axis has some new unwanted restriction which blocks this txn. I experienced this last month and they can’t do anything about it, for now.
          Rule: Axis cards wont allow you to do more than 10K INR in a txn on any wallet or wallet run payment gateways.

            Even transaction for less than 10000 don’t go through @ Payzapp

            I have applied for card through Flipkart app and it was issued instantly. Virtual card details are immediately available on Flipkart app and Axis mobile app. I guess physical card will be delivered in few days. Since I am already Axis bank customer (credit card and saving account), card was issued instantly. Normally I only prefer LTF cards but due to benefits offered, I am going for this card.

          3. Akash

            I had raised this issue with Axis bank, the reason for txn decline on Payzapp is that the CVV is not present while processing the txn. Payzapp never asks for cvv, and hence Axis declines it due to security reason. The issue is across all Axis cards. Makes sense though, Payzapp should start taking in cvv as all other payment gateways do.

    1. Ashish Sharma

      The main reason for decline the transaction is
      Hdfc Payzapp did not Ask CVV they do transaction without entering CVV , Thats’s why transaction failed
      I got this email
      Your transaction attempt for INR ××× on your Axis Bank Credit Card xx×× has been declined for security reasons.

    Applied on: 16Dec, same day cibil enquiry happened and message received as provisionally approved upon doc submission, scheduled document pickup from Flipkart app on: 18Dec 7-9AM no one turned up, Called Axis CC on 19Dec, CC cluesless said will come in 7-10 days.
    Doc Pickup: 22Dec, Just Aadhar fingerprint taken, no docs taken, 23Dec: Msg received about sucessful approval, 24Dec: Virtual card in Flipkart App, was able to login Axis app too (I have no prior Axis relationship) 25Dec (today) Physical card delivered through Bluedart. I made a purchase for 7999 and it showed 400 cash back (rounded up!!) I hope they have worked on the feedbacks, but fingers crossed, let’s see how it goes.
    It shows as Max 10 orders for 5 percent cashback, I don’t know if it is daily or monthly limit. So it is not truly unlimited 5 percent unlimited cashback like Amazon Pay. There is not even a star or condions apply on their Ads.
    I am however okay as I am planning to use Amex for small purchases (as there is a cap of 2500 rp) and Flipkart Axis for big purchases). Flipkart Super coins is still an advantage. I got a years Zomato pro free last year and already ready for next renewal.
    Have not checked other partners yet, I hope I get the welcome offers as promised without any hassle.

    Does anyone know what’s the flipkart supercoin conversion value when redeeming them at offline stores or restaurants? They have a pretty poorly explained SCAN QR feature in supercoin tab, which doesn’t say that it’s only valid for specific flipkart QRs. And Flipkart doesn’t think it’s important to provide these details, it simply says that the coins balance can be used 100%. So rest is a surprise when you actually pay at the outlet and then discover how many supercoins get debited. It seems 500 supercoins have just Rs100 value for mobile recharges through mobikwik.

    Hi Satish,
    Have tried again to register on Netbanking, again the same issue, it is not taking in the customer ID, saying its invalid. Tried to check if there is a new customer ID by sending in the message in the given format, but didn’t get a response from Axis.
    The concern has now become more important than earlier. The Axis Mobile app already had accessibility issues with Google TalkBack, the screen-reader built-in on Android devices. But it was functional for an experienced user. However, the app accessibility has been completely broken. TalkBack is unable to read a single thing on the app. Absolutely unusable. All the more important to register on netbanking, but that’s not happening either. Bit of a bind…

    Have you been able to register for Axis netbanking? As I wrote earlier, I have been struggling to register for netbanking on the site as it is not taking in my Customer ID. I can technically register for the App, but it has accessibility issues specific to users like me. So I need to register for netbanking until they get the app fixed, but unable to register. Some say you can’t use netbanking if you are a credit card only user. But as made clear over here, some people are able to access the service. Since you don’t have prior relations with the bank, and presumably a CC only user, would like to know your experience. If you haven’t tried Axis netbanking, please try registering and share the experience.

    Having continuously engaged with Axis Customercare, I have eventually managed to get my netbanking issue resolved. They were initially sending out those robotic responses, but as I pirsisted on the Facebook page messaging as well as on the PNO email ID, they got round to fixing the issue.
    Not a very neet interface, but as I did expect, the Windows interface is at least usable for a screen reader user. Hope they’ll fixthe mobile app soon.

    I got this card 9 months back and since then wasn’t able to see details on Flipkart app until today, out of nowhere. Can’t login to NetBanking as I have no other relationship except credit card. Applied for Ace credit card and received in 10 days. No Limit enhancement offer so far, got just 25k limit which is now shared between two cards, making both quite useless. I was getting rewards appropriately under 5% and 1.5% category for last 8 months until June statement came and all the Flipkart purchases were marked as “other debits” and given 1.5% cashback instead of 5%. Complaint on CC, no help. Tweeted on Axis Bank support and got a reply “Hi, we wish to inform you that the differential amount of cashback will be credited in the next month’s statement for the eligible credit card accounts”. Let’s see how this plays out. So far I can see Axis Bank had over promised and over sold this card and barely able to fulfill the promise.

The customer care was equally reluctant to close the card but had to after i connected him to the branch people…absolutely pain if one has to close the card

    I hold Flipkart (with fee), Neo (LTF) and MyZone (LTF) cards.

    Called Axis CC to convert Flipkart to LTF. They expressed inability to convert to LTF, but, I am not so serious in the request either, as I have paid the joining fee few months back only. Will wait for first year end and then will make another try for LTF conversion. Else will look for other option of “free reward points”.

    Regarding maximum number of cards with Axis, it is 3 for sure. However, I am trying for the 4th card.

    I already had another card with Axis. So, it got immediately approved for me and started showing up in Flipkart app. Next day got a formal sms regrading application approval.

    Weird thing was I got 2 application numbers and after login to axis site, I was able to see 2 cards under my account. Called customer care and they told both are LTF and one will be blocked. 7 days later got 2 blue dart AWBs and 8th day got both cards delivered.

    After delivery, 2 pins also got shipped on same day and delivered on next day. Both cards are working so far. There isn’t any additional benefit though apart from the additional lounge thing and maybe those sales where number of transactions are fixed. But I anyway don’t exhaust the lounge and other limits.

    The worst part is that the credit card application tracker doesn’t work. Even though mine was approved on 1st day only, I was trying hard to get some information on shipping for a week, but nothing. Customer care just says it’s approved and is pending for dispatch. So, I can understand frustration of people who were trying to get their first axis card.

    Also, there is some issue with their documentation. Before applying card, Flipkart T&C says no joining/annual fee. After applying, it says 500 joining and annual fee. When I received the card, the letter alongside said 0 joining and 500 annual fee. I had to call customer care to confirm that it is indeed LTF.

    can we triple dip using Flipkart axis credit card during BBD ?

    1. Like 10% instant axis card discount
    2. Unlimited 5%cashback using Flipkart axis credit card
    3. 5% Grab deals cashback

    Or is it like 5% grab deals not applicable for Flipkart axis card

    So if its triple dip then we can save 17.6 % on purchase of 80000 (6750 Instant discount + 3662.5 (card cashback) + 3662.5 (grab deal)

      I think it works. I did one transaction few days back using grab deals and was shown 5% cashback using Flipkart card and also got an sms saying 5% cashback after transaction. Not yet got the statement, but it should be fine ideally.

      I have a query regarding grab deals offer. It says 10/7.5 % cashback for burgundy/priority accounts. So, does this apply even for other credit cards (like Flipkart card), if someone has burgundy/priority accounts? Or one needs to transact with burgandy/priority debit cards only to be eligible for 10/7.5% cashback?

    2. K A Prasad

      You will get 10% discount up to the limit (I think it is 1750) provided you meet the minimum purchase amount.. You will also get 5% cash back. So effectively, 14.5 % savings. This is confirmed. Also, given in the T&Cs.

      There is monthly limits on vouchers. Plus in case of axis Flipkart card, u can use axis grab deals portal to get 5%+5% cashback on Flipkart and 5%+1.5% cashback on Amazon. And sometimes there are extra offers like currently 10% (total 10+5 for Flipkart or 10+1.5 for Amazon) offers also on grab deals.

      So, in my opinion, Axis Flipkart is better than HDFC Millenia as well as Amazon Pay Icici, when used correctly.

      Amazon Vouchers are still good for Amazon pay merchants and utility/insurance payments and the grab deals gift voucher section removed amazon vouchers some time back. So, for that those axis select/privilege cards are still better. But they come at higher annual fee.

      Reply

      5% value back on GV purchase on other cards is not a core feature and might go away any time. Moreover there might be some upper capping, I am not sure. On the other hand, this is not the case with Flipkart Axis and Amazon Pay cards.

    This cash back/reward based on MCC code without any recourse/dispute system is very nasty. While doing transaction there is no way to know mcc code, or there is any? In big transaction this can be very disappointing. Many times I have seen many times Amazon products purchase getting classified as Amazon Pay and LIC premium payments getting classified as wallet loading.

    I have called customer care and asked to provide me visa variant flipkart since it is LTF. I am told I can’t get it as I already have paid version of mastercard. So I asked to cancel the card and I have applied it from their app. Now my visa LTF card is approved and visa variant generated in axis app. Now waiting for the physical card.

    Hello, I am using Axis Flipkart credit card with 500 fee now Axis is providing Flipkart card LTF. I requested to make my card LTF but they said No. So I applied for Flipkart Credit Card. My question is how many days it takes to close the card as I m going to close it and apply for it? Is it possible? I am waiting because There is cashback pending which I ll receive on my next statement on 19th march.

      You will be able to apply for the card only after 6 months as per Axis bank customer representative.

    Vivek,

    It takes about 10 working days to close the card. I too faced same issue. So, i asked cancellation request via support team and then raised for pre-approved lifetime free visa variant. I got the card in 7 days. I got this card, even before my mastercard variant got cancelled officially.

    Finally, Axis Bank came up with Airtel Axis credit card. Look good but there is limit.
    Sidd , kindly review it. I hold 3 axis CC . Want this too. Due to 25% cashback on Airtel bill.

      25% -> Capped at Rs.300 per month
      so if your airtel bills are more than 1200 it is not beneficial.

    I had applied for FK Axis Bank Credit Card about a month ago, all the documents were collected, received relevant OTP and OTP mails from Axis Bank during physical verification as well. Also received an SMS saying the card was approved and card details would be following soon.
    20 days later, not having received the card, contacted the bank and they told me that they cannot track my application even after providing them all the information and relevant emails and SMS screenshots. Is this a joke?
    Has something like this happened with someone else?

      Hi,
      I’m also facing a similar kind of issue. I had Axis Flipkart Mastercard which was a paid card, canceled it, and applied for a visa variant. It’s been a month since I applied for the card and my application status is still in Eligibility Check Initiated.

        I did the same thing and applied for free card but application is rejected. Later I came to know Axis doesn’t Re-issue the same card which is once closed. Variant (Mastercard or Visa) doesn’t matter. If anyone managed to get the card pls mention full process

    This card also doesn’t give cashback on rent payment
    I just received my card and it is written at the bottom of the page

      None of the Axis bank credit cards gives cashback/RP’s on Rental payment. It is clearly mentioned in the updated Terms & Conditions.

      Most of the cards now stopped giving rewards for rent payments.

    I have this card since 4 years. Limit is still 70k. The best part is use this card for my forex transactions a lot and never been charged any mark up fee yet. That’s the best I love about this card.
