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. Pasting the page URL into WordPress, Ghost, Notion or Substack does this automatically.

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.

Reward rates above are the realistic value you keep — points earned × what a point is worth at each card's own best redemption, before monthly caps — so cards with different point values compare fairly. 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.
