Perks
Let’s admit, we Indians love perks and free benefits, and credit cards offer exactly that. Every time you make a purchase with your credit card, you can earn benefits like frequent flyers miles, reward points, cash back, free movie tickets and extra discounts. What’s more, loyal customers can also win prizes as big as a free air ticket or other gifts.

While fraudulent transactions on your debit cards translate into instant loss of money, a similar transaction from your credit card doesn’t mean loss of money. If someone uses your credit card without your permission, you will instantly get an SMS notification, thus giving you the chance to raise an alarm, inform the bank and cancel the transaction.
