The cash back will be credited to the customer’s bank account/card statement latest by 15 January 2019.

In case, if you used Amazon Pay Balance, still you are eligible for SBI offer. Yes, you would get Instant Discount but only on the amount charged on your SBI Debit or Credit Card. Also, to avail instant discount, your SBI card should be charged for a minimum amount of Rs 3,000.

For example, if total purchase amount is Rs 8000, and Rs 1,000 is paid using Amazon Pay Balance and Rs 7,000 is paid using SBI card, then instant discount would be given on Rs 7,000 and not RS 8,000. Similarly, if Rs 7,000 is paid using APay balance and Rs 1,000 is paid using SBI card, then customer would not get any discount because the amount paid using SBI card is less than Rs 3,000.
