ICICI Bank Teams Up With Amazon to Launch Co-Branded Credit Card

India-based banking group ICICI Bank announced on Tuesday it has teamed up with Amazon to launch a new credit card. According to ICICI Bank, the co-branded card offers a reward points program exclusive for “digitally savvy customers” and is claimed to be the first card in the country to enable Amazon Prime members earn 5% reward points on shopping on Amazon.in. Other customers get 3% reward points.

ICICI Bank reported that customers may also earn 2% reward points on spends at Amazon Pay partner merchants across categories such as food delivery, utility payments, movie ticketing and much more. As the card is available exclusively on Visa, customers also earn rewards at millions of merchant locations throughout India where Visa cards are accepted.

“A prominent proposition of the ‘Amazon Pay ICICI Bank Credit Card’ is that each reward point is equivalent to a rupee which customers can redeem on Amazon.in from a catalog of more than 160 million items available on the website or by paying merchants who accept Amazon Pay. The reward points carry other industry-first benefits too—they are uncapped and do not expire. Besides best in class rewards, customers will also get fuel surcharge waivers, No-cost EMI offers & surprise bonus points during sale events on Amazon.in and Amazon Pay partner merchants.”

While sharing more details about the partnership, Sudipta Roy, General Manager & Head – Unsecured Assets & Cards, ICICI Bank stated:
