Saifu answering which card to use for an 800 rupee Swiggy order
The problem
With a few credit cards, it is hard to know which one pays most at checkout, and fee waivers, monthly caps and expiring points slip by.
What we fixed
Saifu ranks your cards for each spend and warns you before a fee waiver, a cap or your points run out.

How it works

  1. Add your cards

    Pick the cards you hold from 336 cards issued in India. No card numbers and no bank login.

  2. Say where you are paying

    Type the shop and the amount, like Swiggy for 800 rupees.

  3. Use the card it picks

    Saifu ranks your cards with their caps and exclusions, and shows what each one gives back.

What you get

Your money stays private

On your phone

  • Your cards and spends
  • Statements, read on the phone
  • An encrypted backup file you control (AES-256-GCM)
  • Optional Face ID or fingerprint lock

Never asked for

  • An account or sign-up
  • Card numbers
  • Your bank login
  • Statement passwords, which are never stored

Some cards link to an affiliate offer. Those links are labelled, and they are looked up only after your cards are ranked, so they never change the answer.
