Re-read: Dream Different is now an FD-backed card sold on kotak811.bank.in, 2% cashback once a billing cycle reaches INR 15,000, INR 500 a cycle (UPI INR 200), claimed in the app by the 15th. Fixed: RuPay, not Visa (it runs on UPI, "powered by RuPay"). The old 2 and 1 points per ₹100 came from a stale kotak.bank.in FAQ that also names the Delight Platinum card and a 4% markup the KFS contradicts. KFS: INR 424 + GST to join from 1 Sep 2026, no annual fee, 2% foreign markup. Source: kotak811.bank.in Dream Different page and Kotak's Dream Different KFS, read 29 Oct 2026.
