Axis Bank Privilege Credit Card: rewards, caps and exclusions

What it earns

≈ marks a rate paid in points, valued at ₹0.2 a point. That is Zenidhi's conservative valuation, the same one the audit uses: the cheap end of what the points can be redeemed for, never the best transfer. Redeemed well, they can be worth more.

What earns nothing

Spend in these categories earns no rewards on this card, however it is paid for:

• Insurance premiums
• Rent
• Fuel
• Education fees
• Utility bills
• Government payments
• Telecom bills
• Wallet loads
• Jewellery
• Gift cards (since 28 August 2026)
• Tolls (since 28 August 2026)
• EMI conversions

What costs extra

Worse than earning nothing: Axis Bank charges a fee for these.

• 1% on Rent Transaction fee, plus GST
• 1% on Wallet Load Transaction fee, plus GST
• 1% on Fuel Transaction fee, plus GST
• 1% on Education Transaction fee (third-party apps only), plus GST
