Different from many business credit cards that only reward specific spends like fuel, travel or online expenses.

Integrated Business Insurance Bundle

Complimentary group insurance for shop, cash, burglary and public liability automatically linked to the card.

Reduces the need for separate small-ticket insurance policies and offers protection tailored to shopkeepers and MSMEs.
