Limit for purchasing Amazon GC from SBI CB CC

[sahneracsam]

I buy Amazon GC of ₹10,000 from Amazon each month and then use them for my insurance payment. (This way we get 5% CB for GC purchase)

But I sense that I have more bills from this year and need to purchase GC of ₹20,000.
So, question whether purchasing 20K per month would lead to any restrictions on my card from Amazon in future, any limits?
Anyone already doing this? I have seen a thread where @wolfdalalstreet is restricted from using the card for purchasing the GC, not sure how much did he push it to get this restriction.

You can add any amount of GC to Amazon wallet in a month but only 30k worth of GC allowed per month if purchased from Amazon itself...
If you buy from third parties then you can even add GC upto anything...
And no such ban or restrictions will be levied on your Amazon account.

That's not the case with me, though. I've barely purchased any voucher from Amazon, maybe less than 5K, over the past year, and yet I can't seem to use a credit card to make a GV purchase. Everything else with my account is in good standing. Had spoken with customer care, they were clueless.

That's strange.... Any KYC issue?

You can purchase only 2-3 times using credit card per month on Amazon.

Nope. Nothing. All in good standing. I was surprised myself when I tried to make a GV purchase and hit that block. Thought it'd go away after a while, but didn't. Tried different cards to verify if it wasn't a card related issue, but that wasn't it either. Called Amazon twice after a couple of months to figure out, nothing satisfactory there either. They were themselves at a loss. Writing a mail to their CC had 0 effect.

Bit surprising. Amazon account is an old one with a reasonably fine history.

I hadn't made a GV purchase from Amazon using CC in over 4 months when I tried. The previous purchase had been for around 1K only.

Never saved any CC on Amazon. Don't use the CCs on any other Az accounts.

Yes, Amazon gv purchase from Amazon using SBI Cashback credit card is eligible for 5% cashback.

Note - if you get "Amazon gift card" merchant name then cancel the trxn and retry, all other merchant name is eligible for 5% cb

There are Amazon Pay gift cards and Amazon Shopping vouchers.

I guess the whole discussion in this thread is related to Amazon pay gift cards which can be added to Amazon pay balance and used for bill payments etc on Amazon and other websites where Amazon pay is accepted.

Amazon Shopping vouchers can be used to purchase items on Amazon only.

Now, can anyone confirm if one can get both Amazon Pay gift cards and Amazon Shopping vouchers on Amazon using SBI Cashback card and get 5% cash back.

Also, does the same work on gyftr as well with 5% cashback.

Thanks in advance.

Bhai mother ke account me problem thi, august ka me laga hua tha, recently in march i tried again, and to my surprise cc purchase of gift card was enabled on her account. ek hi mail ke piche padna hai kyu ki dusra humare pas hai ni. ecr@amazon.in. ispe karte raho mail every 15 days. unka koi reply nahi aayega. so keep on sending reminder mails after 15 days are passed after last mail.
But this is hit and trial only. but try krenge tbhi pata chalega mere bhai.
aLSO What other members had suggested that not to use same credit card on 2 different amazon accounts, that i am following now. What i currently don't know is that purchase to alag alag account se kar liya humne, load to ek account me kre ya nahi.
