The best-in-industry rewards, seamless access to credit, and the easy onboarding process are the key contributors to this excitement. With the introduction of ‘Video KYC’ in June 2020, many new-to-bank customers applied for the card from various parts of the country, which significantly boosted the user base. In October last year, the card became the fastest co-branded credit card in India to cross the milestone of one million issuances. It has now become the fastest co-branded credit card to cross two million issuances, with the last one million cards issued in less than a year. More than 80% of these new customers availed the card completely digitally, without any physical interaction. We believe the card is well poised to become the largest co-branded credit card in the country.”
