Good to see at least Ola & First Cry joining the list. Still hoping Payzapp comes back.

Ola wallet & post paid is NOT eligible for 10X. You can pay for your Ola rides just like Uber by selecting DCB as your payment method.

Called my RM and she did confirm that points will transfer 1:1.

Do you know if the points transfer partners are the same as for the DCB?

Exactly the same including same ratios.

Main difference between the cards is PP vs. Diners lounges; no partner 10x, fixed credit limit, 25k max 10x for SmartBuy for Infinia.

I don’t think that’s there anymore. AFAIK they lost it at the same time Diners did. Now they have the same 15% discount.

Ugh, why is the fee twice that of the Diners Black then? No partner 10x even, as you say. (Admittedly I'm saying this from the POV of someone who already has unlimited Priority Pass via the Prestige. And I don't golf.)

There is the Club Marriott and a couple of other perks. Also I'm guessing Diners absorbs some costs that Visa won't.

There's also a 40L gross income requirement for the Infinia.

So there seems to be a bunch of changes to the Diners program along with a new card as well - https://www.hdfcbankdinersclub.com/i...l-credit-cards

The annual fee for Black has dropped down to 5k which is very surprising.

Also noticed this for the first time - Rewards Points are valid only for 3 years from the date of accumulation.
ex:- if you receive Reward Points in Nov 2019, same will expire in Nov 2022.

I guess you missed it. This has been there forever.

Btw, anyone knows how to get Club Marriott and other memberships?

That's only for new(ish) Infinia card holders. You get a email notification to sign up.

Ah... they’ve extended those benefits to DCB too. There’s a link to claim benefits... https://hdfcbankdinersclub.poshvine.com/
