Hands-on with Axis Bank Rewards Plus Debit Card

From the last couple of years, the cards market in India has become fiercely competitive. Every couple of days, we see a new Credit Card is launched with unique benefits. Some try to woo clients with reasonable reward rates, some with freebies, some with discounts, cashbacks, and the list is quite long.


Leave Credit Cards aside, nowadays, banks are even issuing Debit Cards with plentiful benefits and features. Take for example, ICICI's Coral Debit Card, it gives you perks like Airport Lounge Access, free movie tickets, etc. The point is that the DCs are steadily and slowing trying to come at par with CCs. I just received the Axis Bank Rewards Plus Debit Card, and it hosts excellent features as well.

This article is about the Rewards+ Debit Card issued by AXIS Bank. The Card offers:
