FAQ

Questions people ask before applying

Still unsure? Our card experts reply on WhatsApp within working hours.

Yes, completely. We earn a referral fee from banks and NBFCs when you apply through our links. It never changes what you pay and never affects our ratings.
No. Browsing and using the Card Finder is not a credit enquiry. A hard enquiry happens only when you submit a full application with the bank.
Each card gets an editor score from four things: effective reward rate, fee-to-value, perks you will actually use and ease of approval. Sponsorship plays no part.
Yes. Secured cards against a fixed deposit (like Kotak 811 #DreamDifferent) and some fintech cards accept students and self-employed customers without income proof.
Digital issuers like ICICI, IDFC FIRST and Scapia approve pre-qualified customers in minutes. Others take 3–7 working days after document verification.
