If you love shopping on Amazon, then getting the new 'Amazon Pay ICICI Bank Credit Card' is a blessing because it pays you back. Everywhere! 

Launched on October 30, 2018, on an invite-only basis, it's the first card in the country to get you flat unlimited 5% Cashback on the total amount of your purchase if you're an Amazon Prime member else 3% Cashback if you are Non-Prime.

Want more? You can also get Amazon Pay credits for applying this incredible masterpiece if you apply during promotions which ICICI + AMAZON frequently runs. I got 500 INR for applying. It's like getting paid to get the card.

But hey!! There's a turn down too. Unfortunately, in the first phase, they’re offering this card to select customers only and promises to be working towards making it available for all shoppers soon.

How to become eligible for this card, you ask?

Unfortunately, it's still a mystery that on what basis they're selecting users in the first phase. But if you are a lucky one, you can find the apply button on your Amazon account's offer page as shown below.

You can also directly check your eligibility by clicking their marketing page HERE.

UPDATE: Effective 22nd June 2019, Amazon Pay ICICI Credit Card is now open to every customer. You can apply for one HERE.

Some tricks that can trigger your eligibility faster are as follows :

• Link your current ICICI credit card as your preferred and default payment option.

• No ICICI Cred Card? No problem, link your ICICI Debit Card or Pockets Card as your preferred and default payment option.

• Make most of your payments through ICICI Netbanking, Credit Cards, and Debit Cards. 

• Link your ICICI bank account with Amazon Pay UPI

• Ensure that your registered mobile number and email address with ICICI Bank matches with that of your Amazon account's mobile number and email address. 

PS: Having an existing ICICI relationship is preferred, but not mandatory.
