IDFC FIRST Bank has partnered with HPCL to offer two co-branded fuel credit cards – Power and Power Plus. The Power Plus variant is the superior option, offering a 6.5% return via reward and loyalty points on fuel purchases. While alternatives like Indian Oil RBL XTRA and BPCL SBI Card Octane offer higher returns, they also come with steeper fees, making the Power Plus card a strong contender in its fee segment.
Apart from fuel savings, the card also provides accelerated rewards on categories like groceries, utility bills, and FASTag recharges. Additional benefits include complimentary airport lounge access, movie vouchers, and roadside assistance. For users looking to save significantly on fuel and routine expenses, this card is a worthy option.
IDFC FIRST Bank, in collaboration with Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL), has launched the co-branded FIRST Power Plus Credit Card with a joining fee of Rs. 499.
