Write for us
We publish short, sourced news on Indian credit cards, reward points and lounge access. If you spot a change before we do, or you know a corner of this well, pitch us.
What we take
- News: a bank, network, regulator or loyalty programme changed something cardholders will feel. A fee, a cap, a lounge rule, a points ratio, a launch, a closure.
- Explainers: how a rule works in practice, built on the documents. RBI directions, MITC clauses, points transfer terms.
- Corrections to the catalog: a card's terms are wrong or out of date. These are the most useful thing you can send.
The rules
- Every claim needs a primary source we can open: the bank's notice or terms document, the RBI or NPCI circular, the programme's own page. Press coverage alone is not enough.
- Exact numbers and dates from the source. Nothing estimated, nothing rounded up.
- No advice and no ranking of cards. Report what the documents say.
- No paid links, no affiliate links, no promotional copy. We do not accept payment to publish.
- Tell us if you work for, or are paid by, a bank, card network, fintech or loyalty programme. We may still publish, with that disclosed.
- We edit for length, style and accuracy, and we check every source before publishing. You get a byline and a link to one page of yours.
How to pitch
Email hello@c4e.in with the subject "Pitch", three lines on the story, and the link to the primary source. For a correction, name the card and link the bank's document. We reply to every pitch within a week.
