We can't say anything until Amazon's terms and conditions page arrive for the sale. There it will be mentioned clearly. But according to the experiences of last year, cashback SBI was excluded from the instant discounts.
It could be publicity of cashkaro to encourage people apply cards through them and gain some commission.
The strategy is being implemented by sbi for sbi cashback card is a very much beyond the logic.
Just give instant discount with the use of cashback card and not give cashback as they are doing with sbi simply click.
What happens with SBI is:
It will be either CB or Discount for any of their cards...
I will tell you guys what happened before:
Last year when the CB card was launched , in the intial days Instant Discount worked on amazon using CB card.. I thought I got both discount and CB ... guess what , after a few months I obeserved this anamoly in my cashback summary:
There are two items in CB Summary:
CB earned and CB posted:
My CB earned till now : 27,828
My CB posted till now: 26,196
Difference: 1,632..
This difference is being maintained till now for the last 9 months or so..
WHy Is the difference?? I thought to myself quite a lot and now at some stage I figured it out , its because of the Instant dicsount I got during last year's Amazon sale.. For those sales they haven't posted my CB...
Same for Simply Click, if we earn any instant discount, they will take back the reward points we earn on those transactions.
Moral of the story: Either Instant discount / CB(rewards) . .. not both on SBI cards.. and they never mentioned thses in any T&Cs..
So, no double dip with SBI cards, even though they never mentions that..
I think SBI is implementing the logic quite efficiently but they never documented it... is what I believe.
