The joining benefit will be credited in the next statement. Cash withdrawal transactions, fees and charges will not be eligible for the joining benefit.

Can I use my Credit Card for international transactions?

If you are applying for your first IDFC FIRST Bank unsecured credit card, you will get a credit limit as per our internal policies.
