Priced on the everyday mix — 30% groceries · 10% utilities · 20% travel · 6% fuel · 34% everything else — with this card's published category rules applied. Plus milestones, minus the fee. No accelerator credit — the ranking model on /compare adds ~20% of spend at the card's best accelerator, so its ₹ for this card reads higher.

Breaks even only by erasing its fee at ₹13,000 a month

At ₹13,000 a month — ₹1,56,000 a year — on the everyday mix this card returns ₹400 gross (earn ₹400) against a fee of ₹0 — the ₹499 is waived, the spend having cleared ₹1,50,000 a year = ₹400 net — the first rung at or above ₹0. The ladder runs in ₹1,000 steps to ₹1,00,000 a month and ₹10,000 steps to ₹5,00,000; figures are rounded to the hundred, and the accelerator is never credited.

The take

Fun+ is the BookMyShow co-brand RBL retired in favour of PLAY, and on paper it earns better than its replacement: 20 Reward Points per ₹100 on weekend dining, 10 per ₹100 at Pizza Hut, KFC and bookmyshow.com, and 1 per ₹100 on everything else, all under a card-wide ceiling of 1,000 points a billing cycle. On top sit a ₹500 BookMyShow voucher every month you spend ₹5,000, a 10% BookMyShow discount fifteen times a year, and a single big milestone — 12,000 points at ₹4 lakh of annual spend, which RBL itself prices at ₹3,000 of vouchers. The ₹499 reverses at ₹1.5 lakh. You cannot get one: RBL's page opens with "we are no longer accepting applications" and routes you to PLAY. Holders keep everything except the ₹300 Pizza Hut and KFC vouchers, which RBL has explicitly withdrawn from this card.

Your renewal — keep, downgrade or cancel

This card reaches break-even by ERASING its fee, not by out-earning it: the waiver is the decision.

₹1,50,000 annual spend erases that fee
₹13,000/mo is where the waiver, not the earn, saves it

Keep, downgrade or cancel

₹499/yr at stake · 5 spend bands

The charge ₹499/yr

The waiver ₹1,50,000 of spend in the year before renewal — about ₹12,500 a month — and the renewal fee is not charged.

Break-even ₹13,000 a month — ₹1,56,000 a year — is where this card's value crosses its fee, and it gets there by erasing the fee at the waiver rather than out-earning it.

At your spend

₹800 a year, net of the fee, at ₹3,00,000 of annual spend — this clears the waiver, so no fee is charged

₹4,500 a year, net of the fee, at ₹6,00,000 of annual spend — this clears the waiver, so no fee is charged

₹6,000 a year, net of the fee, at ₹12,00,000 of annual spend — this clears the waiver, so no fee is charged

₹6,000 a year, net of the fee, at ₹36,00,000 of annual spend — this clears the waiver, so no fee is charged

₹6,000 a year, net of the fee, at ₹60,00,000 of annual spend — this clears the waiver, so no fee is charged

Everyday earn plus milestones, minus the fee — the same model as the value panel above, so the two cannot disagree. run your exact spend →

The downgrade

RBL Bank publishes no document naming a card you can step down to, so we name none — an invented product change is a phone call you would waste. That leaves keep or cancel, and the numbers above are the whole of it.

If you call to cancel

What the bank offers to keep you is the one fact this desk cannot compute. We are collecting those reports — dated, and only in aggregate — before publishing any: an offer one reader was made is not one you are owed. Called about this card? Tell us what they offered →

The desk publishes subscribable .ics feeds for the dates it knows — offer deadlines, devaluations, expiry audits. Your renewal date is not one of them: only your statement knows it.

What's good

  • 20 Reward Points per ₹100 on weekend dining
  • 10 Reward Points per ₹100 at Pizza Hut, KFC and bookmyshow.com
  • ₹500 BookMyShow voucher every month you spend ₹5,000
  • 12,000 bonus points at ₹4 lakh of annual spend — RBL prices them at ₹3,000
  • Fee reverses on ₹1.5 lakh of eligible annual spend

Watch out

  • CLOSED TO NEW APPLICANTS — RBL's page: "we are no longer accepting applications for RBL Bank Fun+ Credit Card"
  • Card-wide ceiling of 1,000 Reward Points a billing cycle, which the accelerated rungs reach fast
  • The ₹300 Pizza Hut and KFC monthly vouchers have been withdrawn from this card — RBL says so on the page
  • Fuel, utilities, insurance, rent, railways, education, government, wallets, cash, EMI and Bills2Pay count for nothing: not rewards, not the monthly voucher, not the milestone, not the fee waiver
  • ₹99 + GST reward-redemption fee, charged once per day you redeem
  • RBL charges 1% on FIVE transaction types its Schedule of Charges lists separately from the reward exclusions: rent (MCC 6513, on every transaction), fuel and auto above ₹10,000 a transaction (capped at ₹3,000), utility spends above ₹50,000 a month, education paid through third-party apps such as CRED, PhonePe or Paytm (school and college websites are exempt), and — with effect from 7 January 2026 — FASTag loading and tolls above ₹10,000 a transaction. These are FEES, listed nowhere near the reward exclusions: a category can both cost you 1% and earn you nothing

What these points actually fly

RBL Reward Points move to Club ITC — and that programme prices every award dynamically. There is no published chart to quote, so we quote nothing: an estimate is not a seat.

Does your spend count toward the fee waiver?

not published — and we say which

₹1,50,000 a year is the bar that waives the ₹499 fee. A different question from the one above — earning points and counting toward a threshold are separate rules, and issuers write them separately.

Not published. RBL Bank states what the RBL Bank Fun+ earns, but has not published which spend categories count toward the fee waiver and the milestones — the ₹1,50,000 bar. We won't guess it from the earn table or from a sibling card: Axis published three cards' rules on one day and all three lists differed. If you hold this card and have it in writing from the issuer, send us the document and we'll source it.

Closed to new applications — existing cardholders keep the card; there is no way in.

You cannot apply. RBL's product page opens with "While we are no longer accepting applications for RBL Bank Fun+ Credit Card, we have something more fun on offer for you! We are sure you would like our new proposition – RBL Bank Play Credit Card", and links straight to PLAY. Existing holders keep the benefit set, minus the withdrawn Pizza Hut and KFC vouchers, and the fee row is still live in both RBL fee documents.

RBL Bank publishes no income or age cutoffs for this card. Blank means blank — we don't invent numbers to fill a grid.

    Partner major Axis Bank
    Axis EDGE brings Accor back, drops ITC, and adds Cathay, Miles & More and Hilton
    Accor and Marriott off the grid since 2 April 2026; Club ITC live; no Cathay, Miles & More or Hilton → Accor live at the punished rates; ITC removed; Cathay, Hilton and Miles & More live; Marriott still gone

    Axis's own Travel EDGE terms, re-read 25 September 2026, already show the grid that went live on 23 September. Accor ALL is back, and not at the old Atlas 1:2: EDGE Miles convert at 2:1 (Olympus 1:2) and EDGE Rewards at 5:1, with Magnus for Burgundy at 5:2 and only Burgundy Private still at 5:4. Club ITC is off the table. Three partners are new. Cathay Asia Miles sits on that same punished grid. Hilton Honors is the ordinary one: EDGE Miles 1:2, EDGE Rewards 5:2, Burgundy 5:4. Lufthansa Miles & More is the exception on Atlas, which converts 1:1 there while every other standard airline on that card is 1:2; the EDGE Rewards side of Miles & More is the ordinary 5:2. Marriott stays removed. Qatar Privilege Club was already back. Flying Blue, Air India and Qantas moved into Group A, which is the capped group. The Axis Rewards credit card's Amex network is advertised as joining-fee and annual-fee nil for a limited period; there is no separate Amex variant on this board, so that offer is not modelled as a fee change.
