Our Expert Take

YES Bank Marquee is a genuinely free card with a strong online earn rate (36 points per ₹200) and a 1% forex markup that undercuts most cards regardless of fee tier. Lounge access needs ₹1 lakh in the prior quarter's spend, so it works best for consistent spenders rather than occasional ones.
