HDFC Bank Referral Program Features


  • Reward for Both: After one financial transaction of the referred Credit Card, both the referrer, i.e., you and the referee receive a ₹250 voucher each. 
  • Digital Process: The entire Credit Card referral process is conducted online, making it quick and seamless. 
  • Unlimited Referral: You can refer as many friends and family members as you want, with a limit of four referrals in a month. 
  • No Additional Cost: You can refer individuals under this program without any extra costs.

How to Refer a Friend?


  1. Use your HDFC Bank registered mobile number to log into the HDFC Bank Credit Card Referral portal. Note that your mobile number must match the one linked to your HDFC Bank Credit Card. 
  2. Provide the name and mobile number of the individual you want to refer.  
  3. A personalised application link will be generated, which you can share via SMS or WhatsApp with the referee. 
  4. Once the referred individual receives the link, they must apply for the Credit Card using the link within 30 days of receiving it.

How Does the HDFC Bank Credit Card Refer and Earn Program Work?


Once you refer someone and they successfully apply, receive and perform 1 financial transaction using their HDFC Bank Credit Card, you both get rewarded. After the referred individual completes their first transaction within 14 days of card issuance, both of you and the referred individual will receive ₹250 vouchers each. 

You’ll need to ensure that the referral is done digitally using the link communicated through the personalised messages generated, as this offer is valid only for online applications. Your referred friend or family member must complete the application using the personalised link you shared, and their mobile number must match both the referral portal and the Credit Card application.

Who Can You Refer?


You can refer friends, family members or colleagues who are: 

  • New to HDFC Bank Credit Cards: The referee must not hold an existing HDFC Bank Credit Card. 

  • The Referred Individual Should Be Eligible to Apply: The referee must be eligible for a Credit Card per the bank’s criteria.
