What it's worth to you, after the fee
Welcome: ₹1,500 SpiceJet flight voucher for 2 transactions within 30 days of issue, plus complimentary SpiceClub Silver membership
Priced on the everyday mix — 30% groceries · 10% utilities · 20% travel · 6% fuel · 34% everything else — with this card's published category rules applied: it earns nothing on fuel here, so that spend is dropped, not paid at the headline, and stops pacing milestones and the waiver. 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.

Pays for itself at ₹3,000 a month
At ₹3,000 a month — ₹36,000 a year — on the everyday mix this card returns ₹800 gross (earn ₹300 + milestones ₹500) against its ₹750 fee = ₹0 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.
3 notes on the card itself: how it is issued · the network variants · why it ranks #131
Why #131 Ranked below every transferable-currency card on purpose: 0.75% general earn into a currency with exactly one exit — SpiceJet's own seats.
The take
The cheap rung of India's only SpiceJet co-brand, and it behaves exactly like an airline punch-card should: 18 SpiceClub Points per ₹200 on spicejet.com — 4.5% at the ₹0.50 Axis itself publishes — and a threadbare 3 points per ₹200 on everything else, which is 0.75%. Two-thirds of that headline 4.5% is the SpiceClub Silver tier the card hands you free for a year, not the card; the card's own half also stops above ₹1 lakh of SpiceJet spend a month. What actually pays the ₹750 is the front-loaded stuff: a ₹1,500 welcome flight voucher for two swipes in 30 days, 5,000 milestone points across ₹1L and ₹2L of annual spend, 1,000 more on every renewal, and four domestic lounge visits gated on ₹50,000 of previous-quarter spend. Axis's own value chart totals ₹13,050 of year-one benefit on ₹2.5 lakh of spend — believable, but almost none of it is the earn rate. Hold it if SpiceJet is genuinely your airline and you will burn the points on fares. Otherwise you are paying ₹750 a year, unwaivable, to earn 0.75% in a currency with one door out.

The downgrade
Axis 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.
What has changed under this card
- 23 Sep 2026 Axis EDGE brings Accor back, drops ITC, and adds Cathay, Miles & More and Hilton issuer-wide
- 28 Aug 2026 Axis more than doubles its DCC markup — 3.5% generic, but Olympus and Magnus get their own rates issuer-wide
- 28 Aug 2026 Priority Pass stops opening Indian domestic lounges on every Axis card issuer-wide
We price what is in force today — a change that has not happened yet is not in these numbers. the full archive for this card →
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
- ₹1,500 welcome flight voucher for 2 transactions in 30 days — twice the ₹750 fee
- 4.5% on SpiceJet fares (18 SpiceClub Points per ₹200) at the issuer's own ₹0.50 valuation
- 4 domestic lounge visits a year on ₹50,000 of previous-quarter spend
- 5,000 milestone points at ₹1L/₹2L annual spend, plus 1,000 on every renewal
Watch out
- 0.75% on general spend — a loyalty punch-card, not a rewards engine
- SpiceClub points redeem only against SpiceJet fares, meals and add-ons; no transfer partners
- 12 of the headline 18 points per ₹200 come from the Silver tier, free for year 1 only
- ₹750 every year with no spend-based waiver, and 3.5% forex
- Wallet, fuel, EMI, insurance, education, government and rent earn nothing
- Since 28 Aug 2026: the dynamic-currency markup more than doubled to 3.5% (from 1.5%), a ₹1,300 late fee applies above ₹50,000 outstanding, and Bridge/Road/Toll spends earn no SpiceClub points
What these points actually fly
No live transfer route takes SpiceJet SpiceClub into a programme that publishes an award chart. These points buy catalogue and portal redemptions, not award seats — so this page has no flight to show you, and will not invent one.

Does your spend count toward the milestones?
not published — and we say which
A different question from the one above — earning points and counting toward a threshold are separate rules, and issuers write them separately.
Not published. Axis Bank states what the SpiceJet Axis Bank Voyage earns and does not earn, but has not published which spend categories count toward the milestones . 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.

- 15 Nov 2026The Reserve's memberships stop renewing unless you say yesClub ITC Culinaire, Accorplus, handcrafted Club Marriott Asia Pacific, EazyDiner Prime and Priority Pass renewed automatically each year for as long as the card was open → From 15 Nov 2026 complimentary memberships linked to the card renew only with the cardholder's explicit consent — Axis says renewal and consent details will be shared closer to each renewal date. The same notice flips Priority Pass off at Indian domestic lounges from 28 Aug 2026 (present the Reserve card itself) and adds a ₹1,300 late-payment slab above ₹50,000 outstanding
The Reserve's whole defence of a ₹50,000 fee is the membership stack — Club ITC Culinaire with its free third night, Accorplus, handcrafted Club Marriott Asia Pacific, EazyDiner Prime, and the unlimited Priority Pass. Axis's own Reserve revision notice says that from 15 November none of them renew unless you actively consent. Framed as a choice, it works as breakage: the failure mode of an opt-in is silence, and a cardholder who misses the renewal email keeps paying ₹50,000 for a card whose benefits have quietly lapsed. Reserve is on the same list as Select, Magnus, Magnus for Burgundy, Burgundy Private, Olympus and both Miles & More cards, so this is the whole Axis premium book learning the same trick. Two other things ride the notice: from 28 August the Priority Pass card stops opening Indian domestic lounges — you present the Reserve itself against Axis's own eligible-lounge list, and post-immigration lounges at Indian international terminals still count as international — and a fifth late-payment slab of ₹1,300 appears above ₹50,000 outstanding. Notably, the Reserve notice carries no dynamic-currency-conversion line at all while the bank-wide grid goes 1.5% → 3.5%, and the card's 1.5% foreign transaction fee is untouched.

- 23 Sept 2026Axis EDGE brings Accor back, drops ITC, and adds Cathay, Miles & More and HiltonAccor 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.
