Latest underlying reviewSeptember 11, 2026
Federal BankFederal Bank Visa FedFirst Contactless Debit Card

FedFirst minor customers who need a low-limit contactless card and can either accept the AMC or meet the published spend-waiver condition.

Cost / pricing
Federal Bank current sources disagree on FedFirst debit-card AMC qualification: the dated 20-May-2026 debit-card charge schedule uses ₹250 AMC with a ₹35,000 spend waiver, the current FedFirst account page says Nil AMC subject to ₹35,000 POS/e-commerce spend, while the current card page says Nil AMC subject to ₹10,000 annual POS/e-commerce spend. Treat the exact current waiver threshold as unresolved and confirm before relying on it.

Wrong-fit risks

Keep each product’s cautions beside the product.

A useful comparison shows what can make either option unsuitable instead of averaging those conditions into a score.

Federal Bank

Federal Bank Visa FedFirst Contactless Debit Card

  • Three current first-party Federal sources disagree on the FedFirst AMC amount/waiver threshold; the discrepancy is preserved instead of selecting the cheapest interpretation.
  • The card/account pages advertise Nil AMC only subject to qualifying annual POS/e-commerce spend.
  • Child limits are intentionally lower than Federal's adult debit-card tiers.
AU Small Finance Bank

AU Small Finance Bank Kids Visa Gold Debit Card

  • Do not use the general AU Visa Gold limit for a Kids-linked card.
  • Current fees depend on the linked account schedule.
  • Guardian/card-control settings can impose still-lower usable limits.
