SBM Paisabazaar Paisa+ Credit Card

Paisa+ is Paisabazaar's co-branded secured credit card with SBM Bank India, built for new-to-credit consumers, students, and anyone rebuilding a credit profile. The minimum FD requirement of just ₹2,000 makes it one of the most accessible secured cards on the market, though the cashback tier depends on how large the linked FD is. It's a starter card, not a spend-optimisation tool.
