Dos
  • Use the card exclusively at BPCL petrol stations for the maximum 7.25% value back on fuel and related products
  • Pay your credit card bill on time to maintain a good credit profile and prevent interest charges on the outstanding balance
  • Track your spending to reach the ₹2,00,000 annual threshold for the renewal fee reversal

  • Redeem your reward points instantly at BPCL pumps to directly reduce your fuel expenditure

  • Pay your bill in full to maintain 50-day interest-free period
  • Track redemption value of Fuel Points before redeeming
  • Keep receipts of bill / grocery spends to reconcile rewards
Don'ts
  • Avoid non-BPCL fuel spends, as they only accrue the standard 1X Reward Point rate and do not benefit from the surcharge waiver
  • Do not use the card for mobile wallet uploads, as this category is excluded from earning standard reward points
  • Miss the opportunity to utilise the 4 complimentary domestic lounge visits by tracking the maximum one-per-quarter allowance
  • Ignore transaction alerts or delay reporting a lost card, which could compromise the protection provided by the Fraud Liability Cover
  • Share card details or PIN with any untrusted sources or personnel at a retail outlet
  • Do not assume unlimited fuel rewards; check monthly caps
  • Do not delay minimum due beyond due date to avoid penalties
  • Avoid foreign currency transaction unless necessary (3.5% mark-up)
