BOBCARD picks up Etihad Guest — 2 miles/₹100
BOBCARD launches two Etihad Guest co-brands with 2 miles/₹100 earn rate and 0% forex, replacing SBI co-brands that will close on 31 Mar 2026. The BOBCARD Etihad Guest Premium earns 6 miles/₹100 on etihad.com and has a milestone ladder to 40,000 miles a year.
BOBCARD has launched two new Mastercard co-brands with Etihad Guest, replacing the SBI co-brands that will close on 31 Mar 2026. The BOBCARD Etihad Guest and Guest Premium cards earn 2 miles/₹100, with the Premium card earning 6 miles/₹100 on etihad.com and having a milestone ladder to 40,000 miles a year. The launch of these co-brands is significant as Axis Bank is preparing to drop the Etihad Guest transfer route, making these cards the only way to earn Etihad Guest miles directly from Indian card spend. The 0% forex markups on these cards are also a major advantage for international travellers. Our take: if you frequently fly out of India to Abu Dhabi, these BOBCARD Etihad Guest co-brands are now the best option for earning Etihad Guest miles. With Axis dropping its Etihad Guest transfer route, these are the last pipes into the currency from Indian card spend. Sign up before 28 February for the double welcome miles, and take the Premium — 6 miles/₹100 on etihad.com and a ladder to 40,000 miles a year is the version worth the fee.
