Cashback cards are credit cards which give you a certain percentage of your credit card spends back , as money credited to your credit card statement. Lets say you spend ₹10,000 on a cashback card that offers 5% cashback, you get ₹500 back as cash which is credited to your monthly credit card statement. Hence these cards are easy to understand and popular.
Cashback cards can be of various types –
Shopping cashback cards : these are the most popular, for example Axis Flipkart card & ICICI Amazon Pay card.
Payment cashback cards : for example Paytm credit cards offered by HDFC Bank & SBI Cards
Shopping cashback cards are deservedly most popular since shopping is a large need for all individuals and families.
You need to look at the cards which offer high reward rates on most of your spending needs – you have various spending needs like shopping, travel, fuel, bill payments. You could look at cards which give high fixed rate cashback on all your spends, OR you could look for various cards which give you high cashback on each of your different spend types.
Fixed rate cards normally give a lower cashback rate than the specialist cards which could offer a higher cashback rate on a certain type of card spend.
However fixed rate cards could be more suitable for those who do not like the complexity associated with holding multiple cards.
