Free, no key. The box shows the issuer's published facts — fees, reward rates, forex, income requirement, perks — and keeps itself current. Please keep the credit line under the frame: it's the only part search engines can see, and it's what we ask for in return.

Who comes out ahead — by how you spend

Estimated net annual value for four typical spend profiles: the rewards each card earns on that spend (a merchant or portal bonus only on the share of spend it plausibly reaches), plus the perks and milestone bonuses that spender would use, less any annual fee the spend does not waive (with GST) and the forex markup on spending abroad. Lounge access carries no rupee value here.

Bank-portal accelerators (earned only by booking through the issuer's own portal, on a slice of spend) are bounded upside, listed separately here rather than blended into the everyday rates.
