IRCTC RBL Bank Credit Card

The IRCTC RBL Bank Credit Card is tailored for frequent travellers who often book trains, flights, and hotels through IRCTC. With this card, users can earn a 2.5% value back (five points per Rs. 200) on train bookings and a 1% value back (two points per Rs. 200) on flights, hotels, and cruises via IRCTC. Unlike other IRCTC credit cards that focus on IRCTC transactions, this card also provides a 1.5% value back (three points per Rs. 200) on FASTag recharges.

Cardholders also enjoy a base reward rate of one point per Rs. 200 on non-IRCTC spends. Accumulated reward points can be redeemed on IRCTC at a 1:1 ratio, similar to other IRCTC credit cards. Additional perks include eight complimentary railway lounge visits per year and a 1% transaction surcharge waiver on train bookings through IRCTC. The card also offers up to 1,000 bonus points through joining and milestone benefits.

For those who frequently book travel through IRCTC, this card offers substantial benefits, not only on train bookings but also on flights, hotels, and FASTag recharges. However, it remains a basic co-branded card, focusing primarily on IRCTC spending with limited travel perks beyond railway lounge access. If you're seeking broader rewards and travel benefits, other credit card options might be more suitable.
