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.
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:
Faster reward accumulation
Wider redemption partners
IndiGo-specific travel perks - Boosted Benefits:
Free priority check-in
Airport lounge access (XL variant)
Discounts on flight add-ons
Reward points on IndiGo & everyday spends
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.
