HDFC Bank offers several interesting and beneficial reward point schemes to its credit card holders. It’s fun! You can redeem your reward points for cool stuff – airline tickets, consumer products, gift vouchers and more. Here’s all the info you want on HDFC credit card reward points.

First, The Basics
