American Express Independence Day Offer: Earn 10% Cashback on Amazon India

American Express has launched yet another spends based offer for its credit card customers on spends on the Amazon India app and website. The offer is valid till 19th August and will be applicable to only 12,500 American Express credit cards on a first come, first serve basis.

What is the Offer:

Under this spends based offer, you earn a cashback of 10% on spending a minimum of Rs. 10,000 on shopping from the Amazon India app or website. You can earn a maximum of Rs. 2,000 as cashback during the entire offer period.

This spends based offer is entirely voluntary and you must save the offer on your American Express credit card before it can be availed of. The offer shall be limited only to the first 12,500 cardmembers who save the same on their AmEx credit cards.

American Express Spends Based Offer Terms and Conditions:

• This spends based offer is also applicable on Gift Vouchers.
• The offer is not applicable on payments for Amazon Prime membership and Amazon India subscriptions (including Amazon Music Unlimited, Kindle Unlimited and Audible).
• The offer excludes Amazon India digital purchases (including ebooks and apps), pre-order items (where the release date is after the offer end date), Amazon Web Services and Cash on Delivery purchases.
• The offer is also not applicable on payments made via third-party payment processors like e-wallets.
• You can avail this American Express Spends Based offer only once during the entire offer period.
• The offer can also be availed on transactions made with add-on credit cards. However, you must save the offer on each add-on card separately.
• The cashback is credited within 5 business days of the transaction date.

Bottom Line:

American Express keeps coming up with new offers on its Reward Multiplier portal quite frequently (the most recent one being the now expired 15X Membership Reward Points offer); this American Express offer is yet another very attractive offer that American Express is offering to its cardmembers.

The benefits of this offer become sweeter if you have received a spend based offer from American Express. Moreover, if you shop on Amazon via the Reward Multiplier link, you’ll also get the benefit of up to 5X Membership Reward Points. However, purchasing Amazon Gift Vouchers via Reward Multiplier won’t earn you accelerated Membership Reward Points. Overall, if you combine all the three offers, it becomes an extremely rewarding deal.
