New Delhi, Sept 25, 2025: SBI Card, India’s largest pure-play credit card issuer, and IndiGo, the country’s leading airline, have joined hands to launch a premium co-branded credit card – the IndiGo SBI Card – under the IndiGo BluChip loyalty program. The card has been introduced in two variants, IndiGo SBI Card and IndiGo SBI Card ELITE, offering frequent flyers a rewarding travel and lifestyle experience.
The new product enables customers to earn rewards on a wide range of categories including IndiGo bookings, hotel stays, and travel spends. Enrollment is available through SBI Card SPRINT on the SBI Card website, as well as via offline retail kiosks.
Designed to enhance the travel journey, the IndiGo SBI Card ELITE offers 7% rewards on spends within IndiGo’s ecosystem, while the base variant offers 3%. For hotel and travel bookings outside IndiGo, cardholders can avail 3% rewards on the ELITE card and 2% on the standard card. For all other spends, customers earn 2% and 1% rewards respectively.
The rewards come in the form of IndiGo BluChips-a travel currency credited to the cardholder’s BluChip account every statement cycle. These can be redeemed for flights, hotel bookings, seat upgrades, meals, and value-added services such as Fast Forward. Cardholders can also earn up to 29,000 bonus BluChips annually, making the product a strong travel companion.
Commenting on the launch, Ms. Salila Pande, MD & CEO, SBI Card, said, “Travel has become an important spend category for our customers.
With rising incomes and increasing aspirations, Indian consumers are looking for holistic travel experiences. The IndiGo SBI Card is designed to deliver superior value, combining rewards with convenience. We are confident this will strengthen our co-brand portfolio.”
Mr. Pieter Elbers, CEO, IndiGo, added, “IndiGo BluChip aims to maximize value for our loyal customers. Through this partnership with SBI Card, we are offering a product that turns daily spends into rewarding travel opportunities. This card will enhance convenience, exclusivity, and overall experience for frequent flyers.”
The strategic partnership marks another milestone in the evolution of co-branded credit cards in India, bringing together banking expertise and aviation leadership.
