💳 What kind of credit card charges ₹11,50,000 Lakhs in the first year just for the privilege of holding it?

It started as a rumor whispered among the wealthy: The Amex Centurion Card.

The rumor was so strong, Amex finally made it real.

Here’s the story 👇🧵 Image
✨ The Myth Before Reality

In the 1980s & 90s, rumors spread of a mysterious all-black Amex card with no limit and secret invitation-only access for global elites.

The catch? It didn’t exist yet.

But the whispers created demand stronger than any ad campaign.
🎬 From Seinfeld to Centurion

Legend has it Jerry Seinfeld himself helped bring the idea to life after hearing about the “Black Card” on set.

In 1999, Amex made myth into reality: the Centurion Card was officially launched in the US & UK, later expanding worldwide.

🚀India crossed 110 million credit cards in July 2025

Today, co-branded cards are rewriting how Indians shop, save, and stay loyal.

Let’s unpack the story🧵👇 Image
🏦 What Are Co-Branded Cards?

A co-branded credit card (CBCC) is built through a three-way partnership:

🏦Bank (issues & manages credit)

🏬Brand (retailer, airline, telecom, etc.)

🌎Network (Visa, Mastercard, RuPay).

The result: a card that works almost everywhere but gives extra rewards inside the brand’s world.
📈 Why They’re Exploding

The timing couldn’t be better:

•Spending hit ₹21.16 lakh crore in 2025 up 15% from ₹18.32 lakh crore in FY24.

•CBCCs now makes up a lion share of the incremental cards issued.

The fuel? Digital commerce, UPI adoption, and millions of new-to-credit consumers.

🧵 How Banks & Card Networks Make Money Every Time You Swipe Your Debit/Credit Card in India 💳

Ever wondered where your money really goes when you use a Visa credit card or an RuPay debit card?

Here’s the complete breakdown👇 Image
1️⃣ Who Are the Players?

•👤 Customer – cardholder

•🏪 Merchant – the shop/website

•🏦 Issuing Bank – your bank (HDFC, SBI, ICICI, Kotak, etc.)

•🏦 Acquiring Bank – merchant’s bank (Axis, SBI, HDFC, etc.)

•🌐 Card Networks – Visa, Mastercard, RuPay, Diners Club

•🔐 Payment Gateway/Processor – Razorpay, PayU, Paytm, CCAvenue

Everyone has a role, and everyone earns a piece of the pie 🍰
2️⃣ What Happens When You Pay ₹1,000?

1.🏪 Merchant’s POS/gateway encrypts your card details.

2.🏦 Acquiring Bank forwards it through Visa/Mastercard/RuPay/Diners Club etc

3.🏦 Issuing Bank checks funds/credit limit → approves/declines.

4.✅ If approved → money flows Issuer → Network → Acquirer → Merchant.

But the merchant doesn’t get full ₹1,000.
