The Axis Bank Olympus credit card is one of the latest additions to the Axis Bank credit card portfolio. It boasts several advantages and can compete with many Indian super-premium cards. With this card, you’ll earn 1 EDGE Mile for every ₹100 spent domestically and 2 EDGE Miles for every ₹100 spent internationally. While this reward rate may seem low, you may be surprised to learn that 1 EDGE Mile equals 4 Partner Points. This means you would earn 4% rewards on domestic spending and 8% on international spending. Additionally, since this card charges a Forex markup fee of 1.8% + GST on international spends, the reward rate on foreign spends actually comes to 5.8%, which is quite impressive. In addition to the high reward rate and easy redemption methods through Travel EDGE, one can easily convert 7.5 lakh EDGE Miles in a year to various flight and hotel partners. Apart from the rewarding rate of returns, this card offers exclusive airport privileges such as unlimited domestic and international lounge access, airport transfers, and concierge services. Those who have a passion for golf can enjoy eight complimentary golf sessions each year with the provision to earn more on each spending of ₹50,000 or more. You might be wondering where luxury comes into play in all of this. Well, with this card, you’ll also receive a complimentary Taj Epicure membership, which unlocks new doors and offers for cardholders.
