Working with Visa and MasterCard, IDBI will mainly offer three types of credit cards – Platinum, Signature and Corporate, reported The Hindu Business Line.
IDBI will team up with a third party service (TPS) provider to offer solutions for credit cards.
The TPS will also look after operational activities such as account updation, demographic changes, payment instructions, recurrent payment instructions and balance transfer requests.
IDBI Bank, which already issues Rupay debit cards, is also expected to issue credit cards in association with Rupay.
