Do I need to do anything to get the Federal Bank card?

Federal Bank's page says no action is required “at this time”. Standard Chartered's FAQ explains that a new Federal card is issued once you consent, by sending ACCEPT by SMS to 9702363363 or by continuing to use your card after the date in your SMS or email. Paying your bill alone does not count as consent.

Will I lose my Standard Chartered reward points?

Federal Bank says points migrate with no change in value and their expiry stays the same. If you decline the migration, Standard Chartered says your rewards cease on migration.

Will my credit limit or annual fee change?

Federal Bank's page says the credit limit and the annual fee remain the same.

Which Federal Bank card will I get?

Federal's mapping includes SmartCredit to SaveSmart, Ultimate and Priority Infinite to Allure, Manhattan to Skyline, Rewards Card to Majestic, and Gold or Platinum Rewards to Aspira. The full list is on Federal Bank's welcome page.

Will my autopays move to the new card automatically?

Neither bank's page says so. Since Federal issues a new card, plan to update saved cards and recurring payments once it is activated.
