After Paytm launched its Payments Bank service, the company started offering Paytm RuPay Debit Card to its customers. Now, the company is going a step forward and has introduced credit card offering, dubbed as Paytm ‘First Card’.
The Paytm credit card is being offered in partnership with Citi. The company claims that this new Paytm First Card is the first in the country to give customers one percent “universal unlimited cashback”. There are no restrictions on earning and the cashback earned will be auto-credited every month.
The passbook of the credit card will highlight exclusive offers from both Paytm and Citi on a real-time basis alongside enabling customers to track their credit card transactions. The credit card offered by Paytm has an annual fee of Rs. 500 that will be waived on spends exceeding Rs. 50,000 per year.
Unlike the Paytm Debit Card which is limited to inland transactions in India, the new Paytm First Card is touted to be accepted internationally, thanks to the Citi integration backed by Visa network. It also has exclusive offers on dining, shopping, and travel among others through Citi Privileges platform.
