Kotak x IndiGo Cards Just Got an Upgrade — Enter the New “BluChip” Era!

:loudspeaker: Kotak Mahindra Bank and IndiGo Relaunch Co-Branded Credit Cards With a Twist

Kotak is shaking things up in its credit card lineup by revamping its partnership with IndiGo Airlines. The reintroduced cards now come packed with a brand-new loyalty program—BluChip—that promises richer rewards and better travel perks.

:credit_card: What’s New?

  • Cards Relaunched:
    • Kotak IndiGo Ka-ching 6E Rewards XL
    • Kotak IndiGo Ka-ching 6E Rewards
  • BluChip Loyalty Program:
    Say goodbye to 6E Rewards! BluChip is the new system with:
    :check_mark: Faster reward accumulation
    :check_mark: Wider redemption partners
    :check_mark: IndiGo-specific travel perks
  • Boosted Benefits:
    :luggage: Free priority check-in
    :couch_and_lamp: Airport lounge access (XL variant)
    :money_with_wings: Discounts on flight add-ons
    :briefcase: Reward points on IndiGo & everyday spends

:date: Relaunch Date: Officially announced in July 2025.

My Take:
Kotak and IndiGo are trying to regain relevance in the co-branded space after newer players (like Axis–Vistara, IDFC–Air India) captured attention. BluChip seems like a direct answer to Vistara Points or Air India’s Flying Returns. The big question: will redemption and earnings actually be user-friendly? Watch this space.
