A quick decision view before the full facts.
Good fit if: you want a card built for swiggy, food delivery, and online shopping, and you want your rewards as simple, no-tracking cashback.
Why it can work
It offers accelerated rewards on swiggy app transactions (food delivery, instamart, dineout, genie).
Where value may drop
Fuel, rent, and wallet loads don't earn rewards. Monthly reward caps apply on the top categories. The 3.5% forex markup is high for overseas use.
