Not in these numbers

  • The card is loaded at SBI's card rate (the forex card rates PDF); no margin over a market rate is published, so the comparison leaves it out.
  • Reward values are in points, whose worth and tiers are not defined on the page.
  • The page gives no validity, inactivity fee, balance-enquiry fee, replacement fee or insurance for this card, and no per-currency ATM fee table. The older State Bank Foreign Travel Card pages carry those figures; whether they apply here is not stated.
