An à la carte lounge offers menu service rather than buffet, common in premium lounges.
À La Carte Lounge is one of the standard terms that banks, card-issuers, and payment networks use in credit card disclosures, fee schedules, and product-comparison pages in India. When a bank or card-issuer publishes a credit card's terms and conditions, the bank uses terms like À La Carte Lounge to describe benefits, eligibility, billing, and operational mechanics.
Cardholders will see À La Carte Lounge referenced on the issuer's product page, in the monthly credit card statement, in dispute-resolution correspondence, and in the bank's customer-service knowledge base. Tracking the term helps the cardholder decode the fee schedule and understand what triggers a charge.
The Reserve Bank of India's 2021-22 master directions on credit cards and digital lending also use terms like À La Carte Lounge in the regulatory framework that every card-issuer in India has to follow. FinWiz24's glossary collects these terms so readers can look them up without combing through a 40-page card-issuer T&C document.
Your card-issuer's most recent credit card terms and conditions document (usually linked from the product page) is the authoritative source. The issuer's customer-service team can also clarify how the term applies to your specific card variant.
Most credit-card terms either describe a benefit you can use (and therefore value) or a fee that the issuer charges when a specific action triggers the term. Read the related fee schedule side-by-side with the term's definition to understand the financial impact on your monthly statement.
