🚨 ICICI Bank launches the 1838 Reserve Credit Card! The much-awaited ultra-premium credit card is finally here, with a joining and annual fee of ₹1,75,000 + GST. And as predicted, the card is issued on the Visa Infinite Privilege network! 👀 Inspired by the founding year of The Times of India, the 1838 Reserve comes with an interesting story, a premium design, and a host of luxury lifestyle benefits. But does the proposition justify its hefty price tag? Let's take a look. 👇 💳 Key Details • Joining Fee: ₹1,75,000 + GST • Annual Fee: ₹1,75,000 + GST • Annual Fee Waiver: Not Available • Domestic Reward Rate: 3% • International Reward Rate: 2% • Network: Visa Infinite Privilege • Availability: Invite-only ✨ Welcome Benefits 🏡 Complimentary overnight stay at select Lohono Stays Platinum Villas (stated value: ₹50,000) 🎁 Luxury gift from Marshall, Smeg or Le Creuset via Tata CLiQ Luxury (stated value: ₹25,000) 🏛️ Curated museum experience for two through Klook (stated value: ₹7,500) 🥂 Luxury Lifestyle Benefits • The Quorum Club membership, with access to over 280 private clubs across 52 countries • Dedicated concierge service by Crib Life • Four Truefitt & Hill Royal Signature Services annually 🌍 Visa Infinite Privilege Benefits • Complimentary Harrods Gold Tier status • Accor+ Explorer membership with Accor Gold tier status • ITC Hotels' stay-three-pay-for-two offer The 1838 Reserve certainly looks the part, and the Visa Infinite Privilege network adds to its exclusivity. However, with an annual fee of nearly ₹2.07 lakh including GST, the benefits need to deliver substantial value to justify the cost. A premium name and beautiful design can grab attention, but the real test is whether the benefits live up to the price tag. cardinsider.com/blog/1838-re…
