How does this No-Cost EMI on Gift Cards work?
With a QR code at the checkout counter at Hidesign stores, consumers can visit the Hidesign microsite to purchase a Hidesign e-Gift Card on No-Cost EMI, for a tenure of up to 6 months, using their credit or debit cards.
Are there no hidden costs at all?
Absolutely none. What's more, you even stand to save a bit! Depending on your bank of choice, you may even be eligible for a discount equivalent to the interest you would have paid on your card if you hadn't taken advantage of the No-Cost EMI!

QwikBit ABout the Brand
Dilip Kapur began Hidesign in 1978 as a hobby. With their handcrafted look and unorthodox designs, the bags were radically different from anything available in Europe and the USA at the time. Hidesign was quickly adopted by alternative fashion stores in London, San Francisco, and Melbourne. The eco-friendly leather products and fashion accessories are widely accepted in 25 countries as a leader in the development of sustainable and innovative leather fashion.
