Today, almost every online retailer is exploring every possible way to attract as many new as well as existing customers as possible. Consequently, multiple special sales are\u00a0being\u00a0launched\u00a0under which there are many attractive deals and discounts\u00a0on\u00a0products from diverse categories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the significant steps taken\u00a0by the online retailing giant\u00a0Amazon for customer acquisition is the strategic partnership with major credit card issuers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A\u00a0prominent example\u00a0of this\u00a0is the offer on SBI credit\u00a0 cards<\/a> and debit cards\u00a0through\u00a0which customers can avail special offers like cashback and instant discounts\u00a0on their purchases.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Using SBI Bank credit cards, Amazon customers can get tempting deals on their shopping. Even though the offers are largely available\u00a0throughout the\u00a0year, special sales on Amazon are propelled by special offers on\u00a0SBI\u00a0Bank\u00a0credit cards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Let’s discuss some of the points and tricks which you should remember while shopping online during sales and festival offers and the best ways to use your credit card to avail cashback on Amazon\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Products which qualify for the\u00a0<\/b>cashback\u00a0<\/b>offer<\/b>s<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

The cashback offers are usually applicable to popular categories like electronics, consumer durables, and other big-ticket purchases. A few of the top products under these categories are mobiles, watches, computers, fashion and beauty, home and kitchen\u00a0items, books, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Among the products that don\u2019t qualify for the cashback offer are\u00a0gold jewellery\u00a0and\u00a0Amazon.in gift cards.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

O<\/b>ffer range<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Although the offer amount\u00a0depends\u00a0on the\u00a0nature and type of sale, it usually varies from 5%\u00a0to\u00a020%.\u00a0However,\u00a0there\u2019s a maximum value that can\u00a0be\u00a0availed\u00a0and\u00a0it\u2019s specified by Amazon during the sale.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This amount can\u2019t be exceeded irrespective of the number of purchases on any single card account.\u00a0Also,\u00a0most of these are usually limited period offers although some of them are live throughout the year.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The offer percentage also varies depending upon the platform used to make the purchase. The cashback offered on the mobile app version of Amazon is usually higher than what is offered on the Amazon website.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Minimum purchase value<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Amazon usually specifies a minimum transaction value for the customers to be eligible for availing the offer. This amount varies from time to time and is categorically mentioned by the online retailer on its website and mobile app.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A<\/b>vail<\/b>ing<\/b>\u00a0the offer<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

There\u2019s usually\u00a0no\u00a0promo code that needs to be applied at the time of checking out to avail the cashback offer. This implies that the offer is\u00a0auto-applied when customers meet the minimum transaction amount and use their SBI card to make the payment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This would be\u00a0the\u00a0same\u00a0for both\u00a0the\u00a0mobile app and the\u00a0Amazon website\u00a0users.\u00a0The cashback offer would be added to the\u00a0cardholder’s account\u00a0within a specified time (usually within 48 hours) of completion of the purchase.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Or Amazon may set a date when the cashback amount\u00a0would be credited\u00a0to the card accounts of the customers.\u00a0Any other applicable offers or discounts can also be availed in addition to the cashback offer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A<\/b>vailability of the offer on EMI<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

To enhance the experience and convenience of making big-ticket purchases, Amazon also enables the customers who make their purchase on EMI to avail the cashback offers.\u00a0It\u2019s available on no-cost EMI purchases as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Card payment on delivery<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Usually, the SBI cashback offer can\u2019t be availed on card payment on delivery. This implies that customers who opt for\u00a0Cash-on-Delivery (COD) when\u00a0ordering\u00a0the product and then choose to pay the amount with their\u00a0SBI\u00a0card on receipt on the product, cannot avail the cashback offer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, there are exceptions as\u00a0for some SBI cashback offers, Amazon does allow customers to avail the offer when they opt for card payment\u00a0on delivery. But this facility\u00a0is subject to availability of a\u00a0card accepting machine\u00a0when the item is delivered,\u00a0and this can\u2019t be guaranteed by Amazon or SBI.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, the cashback offers can\u2019t be\u00a0availed\u00a0on net banking transactions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Cancellation of orders<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

Cancelled orders are not eligible for the SBI card cashback offers and the amount of the cancelled orders would be adjusted from the\u00a0amount of\u00a0transaction\u00a0for\u00a0the purpose of the\u00a0cashback offer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In the event of partial refund or cancellation of an order, the customer would qualify for the cashback offer only if the net payable amount for the transaction is\u00a0equal to or\u00a0greater than the minimum amount that qualifies for the offer as specified by Amazon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Also, if the customers\u00a0return\u00a0their\u00a0order, they would not qualify for the cashback. If a part of the order is returned, cashback will be given on the\u00a0net amount\u00a0they\u00a0pay for the transaction. Also, this amount should meet the\u00a0minimum amount of eligibility\u00a0as specified by Amazon.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Making one part of the payment using SBI card and the other using Amazon Pay balance<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

In such cases, customers would get cashback only on the amount spent on their SBI card.\u00a0Also, it\u2019s important to bear in mind that the SBI card must be charged for at least the\u00a0minimum amount that qualifies for the offer as specified by Amazon.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If the amount spent on the card is less this minimum amount, the customer would get no cashback.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If the payment fails while placing the order<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

If the payment fails\u00a0while placing an order,\u00a0customers get an\u00a0option to revive\u00a0the\u00a0payment\u00a0for that order. If the customers revise the payment within the duration of the offer, they would be eligible for the cashback.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bottom line<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

The cashback offered\u00a0by Amazon is a primary attraction for the SBI credit and debit cardholders as they can get fascinating deals and discounts\u00a0in addition to\u00a0the existing offer. Interested individuals can check the Amazon app or the website to\u00a0get\u00a0notifications\u00a0about\u00a0such offers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The offer details and its terms and conditions would also be mentioned here. Amazon may also inform about the offer on its official social media accounts. By availing these offers, customers can make good use of their SBI credit and debit cards.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
