Facebook Google * Home * Credit Cards * Add-on Credit Cards Add-on Credit Cards ADD-ON CREDIT CARDS Click here to Check your Eligibility! Have you ever thought of sharing your credit card with your family? Would you like to give financial freedom to your teens yet want to track their expenses? Here is a solution for all such needs. An add-on credit card or a supplementary credit card would let you share your credit card with your family members while keeping a track on their expenses. It eliminates the need of having multiple credit cards in a family thus reduces your overall credit card annual maintenance costs. Let’s look at various thing you need to know about add-on credit cards. WHAT IS AN ADD-ON CREDIT CARD? Most of the personal credit cards available in India offer add-on credit cards as an additional facility for the cardholders. An add-on credit card essentially contains the same features of the primary credit card and can be availed by the immediate family members of the primary cardholder. Typically, credit card issuers provide limited number of cards, say 2-3, for free. This means no annual fee or joining fee will be charged on the add-on cards. However, some cards do come with a cost. They carry an annual fee, typically much lesser than the annual fee of the primary credit card. FEATURES OF ADD-ON CREDIT CARDS Primarily, add-on credit cards share all the features of the main credit card. All the benefits offered by the primary card are available on the supplementary card. However, there are a few aspects you need to understand while using an add-on credit card. Add-on Credit Cards by Popular Banks * SBI Add-on Credit Cards * HDFC Add-on Credit Cards * Axis Bank Add-on Credit Cards * CitiBank Add-on Credit Cards * RBL Bank Add-on Credit Cards * Standard Chartered Add-on Credit Cards * HSBC Add-on Credit Cards * Kotak Mahindra Add-on Credit Cards * Bank of India Add-on Credit Cards * Credit limit of an add-on credit card:Add-on credit cards have the same credit limit as that of the primary credit card. You can use add-on credit card up to total credit limit on the card account. Some card issuers also allow primary cardholders to set a limit on each add-on credit card. It could be same or lesser than the total credit limit on the account. The same stands true for cash withdrawal limit or cash limit. While most banks provide a default cash limit of 100% on add-on cards, a few like HDFC provide a lesser cash limit to add-on cardholders. * Reward points on add-on credit cards:Add-on credit cardholders earn the reward points at the same rate as that of the primary cardholder. This means the number of reward points, minimum transaction amount, redemption options, etc., remain the same. The accrued reward points get credited to the primary cardholders account. While redeeming the points, you can use the consolidated points. * Airport lounge access on add-on cards:Not all credit card providers allow the add-on cardholders to enjoy the complimentary airport lounge access provided to the primary cardholder. Especially, the free membership offered on airport Priority Pass Program and others are exclusive for primary cardholders. However, there are a few card issuers that allow primary and supplementary cardholders to share the free visits. * Offers on add-on credit cards:Most of the card issuers consider add-on credit card as another card in providing the offers. If it is the case with your card as well, the primary cardholder and the add-on cardholder can avail the offer separately. Typical credit card offers include discounts, cashback, free gifts, vouchers, etc. OTHER IMPORTANT ASPECTS OF ADD-ON CREDIT CARDS * Add-on credit card application:Though the add-on credit cards are offered as complimentary for the primary cards, unless the bank receives an application for the cards, you cannot have one. Thus, the eligible family members of the primary cardholder should apply for an add-on credit card to get one. * Add-on credit card billing/statement:Irrespective of the number of add-on cards, the bank will generate only one consolidated credit card statement. It includes all the purchases or transactions made on the primary card as well as on all add-on cards. The primary cardholder can thus track all the withdrawals and spends made by the add-on credit cardholders. He/she, however, remains responsible for all dues on the card/s. * Add-on cards – Effect on Credit score: As supplementary credit cards are connected to the primary card, all the transactions and bill payments regarding the cards will be recorded similar to that of primary credit cards. If the primary cardholder is unable to clear the due or pays only the minimum amount due repeatedly, he/she runs the risk of racking up a debt. If payments are delayed, late charges will be deducted from the account of the primary cardholder. Any defaults on the account will also be reported to credit agencies like CIBIL and Experian. Therefore, primary cardholders need to be very careful about the supplementary cardholder’s spends because if anything goes wrong, it will reflect on the primary cardholder’s account and might affect the credit score. WHO CAN APPLY FOR AN ADD-ON CREDIT CARD? Immediate family members of the primary cardholder can apply for an add-on card. All such applicants should be above 18 years of age. The list of eligible members includes primary cardholder's * Spouse * Children * Siblings * Parents * Parents-in-law * Sister/Brother-in-law * Daughter/Son-in-law Some issuers might have some exceptions.
