Food delivery startup Zomato jumped on the bandwagon with the likes of Amazon, Flipkart, and BookMyShow and entered the fintech space in March last year when it collaborated with the RBL Bank and MasterCard to launch two credit cards- the RBL Edition and the Edition Classic cards, that offer exclusive dining benefits to Zomato users. The Edition card is the more premium version of the Edition Classic card. With the Zomato Edition Classic credit card, you get complimentary annual Zomato Pro membership (which renews every year) and 500 Edition Cash as a Welcome Benefit.
The Edition Cash is just like Reward Points, which can be redeemed for food purchases from Zomato or against the card’s statement balance. 1 Edition Cash is equivalent to INR 1. You also earn accelerated Edition Cash on food purchases from Zomato (5x) and for other purchases (1x). Also, earn up to 2,000 bonus Edition cash annually on the basis of your yearly spending.
