So, you've been handed this shiny new piece of plastic - an Axis Bank credit card! But hold on there, Captain Swipe-a-Lot, before you unleash your inner shopping spree champion, there's a tiny hurdle to overcome: the activation code.
Fear not, fellow soon-to-be-purchasing warrior! This guide will be your trusty squire, leading you through the quest for the code and onto credit card nirvana.

Calling Upon the Telephone Gods (Because Apparently Pigeons Don't Deliver Activation Codes)
This is where your vocal cords come in handy. Pick up your phone (yes, that wonderfully old-fashioned device) and dial Axis Bank's customer care number: 1860 419 5555 or 1860 500 5555.
Pro-Tip: Prepare yourself for a bit of a menu maze. Deep breaths and positive thoughts are your friends here. Just navigate to the "Credit Cards" section and then choose "Generate a PIN for Credit Card" followed by "Generate an Activation Passcode."
Now comes the hero's test. Be ready to answer some questions from a friendly (hopefully) customer service representative to confirm your identity. This might include your credit card number, expiry date, and date of birth.
Tip: Reading carefully reduces re-reading.
**Side Quest: Make sure your registered mobile number is up-to-date. That's where your precious activation code will be delivered!
The Code Arrives! But Wait, There's More...
Once you've successfully completed the phone call, check your phone. A magical code (also known as a One-Time Password or OTP) should be waiting for you. Remember, this code is like your magic key - it has a limited time to work, usually 3 hours. Don't let it turn into a pumpkin!
Behold! The PIN is Born!
Now that you have the code, it's time to set your PIN. This can be done through another phone call (yes, we know, we're working on a more high-tech option involving carrier pigeons) by following the same steps as before, but this time choosing "I have an Activation Passcode" when prompted.
Remember, choose a PIN you'll remember, but not something obvious like your birthday or your pet's name (we all love Sparky, but keep him out of this).
QuickTip: Use the post as a quick reference later.
Congratulations! You've conquered the code and unlocked the power of your Axis Bank credit card!
