Our verdict

YES ACE is a clean, no-fuss cashback card with a 5% rate on utility bill payments via Google Pay and a 1.5% flat base rate on everything else — two of the better rates at the ₹499/year tier. The annual fee is waived at ₹50,000 of spend in a year, and the 3.5% forex markup makes it a domestic-spend card.

Cons
