ICICI Bank is running a limited-time offer on the ICICI Amazon Pay Credit Card that increases cashback on Amazon purchases from 5% to 10% between April 15 and May 15, 2026. The offer is capped at ₹1,000 cashback per card, and the regular 5% rate resumes after the promotion ends. This is a classic promotional offer, not a permanent rewards change, because the higher cashback is valid only for a fixed one-month period.
The mechanics are simple: the higher cashback is auto-applied, so cardholders do not need to enroll, register, or enter a promo code. That matters because many limited-time card offers in India require activation through a bank app or merchant landing page, but this one does not. For a customer spending ₹10,000 on Amazon during the offer window, the maximum promotional cashback would be ₹1,000, assuming the spend qualifies and the transaction posts within the validity period.
The offer is most useful for existing ICICI Amazon Pay Credit Card holders who already shop on Amazon and can front-load purchases during the 31-day campaign. It is also attractive to new applicants who can get the card approved quickly enough to use it before May 15, 2026. Compared with HDFC Swiggy, which offers 10% cashback on Swiggy orders capped at ₹1,500 per month, ICICI’s offer is narrower but more direct for Amazon-specific shopping. Since the regular rate returns to 5% after May 15, the promotion is only a short-term boost, not a new baseline.
Cardholders should check the transaction posting date, not just the purchase date, because cashback offers often depend on when the charge settles. The offer is auto-applied, but purchases must still be eligible Amazon transactions on the ICICI Amazon Pay Credit Card. If you are planning a large order, split timing carefully so the total promotional cashback does not exceed the ₹1,000 cap. New applicants should apply early through the official ICICI Amazon Pay Credit Card page, while existing users should simply shop during the offer window and track the statement to confirm the bonus cashback has been credited correctly.
