The Bottom Line

RBL Bank Play Credit Card
Low Fee, (almost) No Rewards

2 Free Movie / Stream / Play / Events / Sports / Activities tickets up to ₹250 each and ₹100 off on F&B Spends on BookMyShow tickets.

Monthly Spend ₹5K ₹10K ₹20K ₹50K ₹100K
Net Reward Yield -0.8%^ -0.4%^ 0.0% 0.0% 0.0%
Est. Monthly Reward (₹) (45) (45)
All-India Rewards Rank* 218 275 307 368 376
Within Bank Rank* 24 37 36 44 46
* Based on est. net reward yield for nearly 400 credit cards in India, for each monthly spending level. Read about how we calculate the net reward yield here.

^The negative figure means at this level of monthly spends, the rewards earned in a year will be worth less than the annual fee.

The RBL Bank Play Credit Card is an invite only card. It offers 2 Free Movie and Non-movie tickets on monthly spending of  ₹5,000 in a month.

It offers no regular rewards on any spends.

The RBL Bank Monthly Treats Credit Card is the best entry level credit card from RBL Bank. This card can earn you a net reward yield of 1.3-2.7%, if you spend less than ₹20,000 on your card each month.

That also makes it one of the best entry level credit cards in India.

With the discontinuation of the Edition program, we no longer recommend any RBL Bank credit card for people charging more than ₹20,000 a month to their credit cards.

The Insignia Preferred Banking Card is the highest yielding credit card from RBL Bank for those charging more than ₹20,000 a month on their cards.

However, the Insignia Preferred offers a meagre net reward yield of 1.3 – 1.4% at that level of spending. You also need a total relationship value with RBL Bank of more than ₹30 lacs to qualify for this card.

We think if you can qualify for the Insignia Preferred, you can get a much better credit card from many other banks and you should not settle for the Insignia.

Our list of the best credit cards in India, at every spending level and from every bank, is here. You can find a detailed discussion of our methodology here.
