Source note: The product names and service examples below are drawn from Sampath Bank’s English credit card application form dated 13 August 2024. It is an official but dated document; it does not establish that every card or feature remains available today.
Sampath Bank card types listed in the published form
The form groups cards by payment network and product family. It lists Visa and Mastercard options named Classic, Gold, Platinum, World and Signature; American Express options named Everyday and Platinum Ultramiles; and affinity cards associated with selected institutions. These are names appearing in that document, not a guarantee of the bank’s current range.
| Family in the form | Names shown | What to check with the bank |
|---|---|---|
| Visa and Mastercard | Classic, Gold, Platinum, World, Signature | Current card availability, annual and joining charges, credit limit process, rewards and travel benefits |
| American Express | Everyday, Platinum Ultramiles | Current programme terms, points or miles rules, acceptance and any partner benefits |
| Affinity cards | Cards linked to selected schools, associations or organisations | Whether your organisation has an active card programme and what its specific terms are |
Features and facilities to compare
Sampath Bank’s 2024 application form describes facilities such as card account access through Sampath Vishwa and the bank’s mobile app, SMS alerts and e-statements, instalment plans subject to approval and terms, balance-transfer or settlement options, recurring bill settlement, and cash advances through ATM networks. The exact features can differ by card and may have changed since the form was issued.
Before choosing a card, compare the current annual and joining fees, interest and other charges, minimum payment rules, foreign-currency conversion terms, late-payment consequences, reward expiry and redemption rules, instalment handling fees, insurance exclusions, and how to report a lost card or dispute a transaction. Ask the bank for the latest Key Facts Document, schedule of charges and cardmember terms; read those documents before applying.
