Axis Bank Atlas Credit Card

✈ Lounge Access Available ★ Up to 5 EDGE Miles per Rs.100 on travel spends Travel Rewards Points & Rewards Airline Hotel Premium & Luxury

Atlas is the lighter-fee sibling to Magnus for travelers who want transferable EDGE Miles without a five-figure fee. The 5 miles per Rs.100 on direct airline, hotel, and aggregator spend is genuinely strong, but the trade-off is real: most everyday categories like rent, fuel, and wallet loads earn nothing toward miles. Run the numbers: Rs.2 lakh of travel spend a year yields 10,000 miles, enough for a short-haul redemption. The 3.5% forex markup (as of 2026) stings on a travel card, so pair it with a low-FX card abroad. Skip it if your spend is mostly groceries and bills. Check current earn tiers on axisbank.com.
