Is ICICI Amazon Pay Card good for someone with no credit history?+
Yes — it is one of the easiest premium cards to get approved for in India. The LTF structure, wide income eligibility, and Amazon endorsement make it a popular first credit card. Building credit history with this card and then upgrading to a rewards card in 12-18 months is a common strategy.
Which is better — ICICI Amazon Pay or Flipkart Axis Bank card?+
Depends on where you shop. ICICI Amazon Pay gives 5% on Amazon (your biggest savings if you are a Prime member). Flipkart Axis gives 5% on Flipkart and Myntra. Many deal-hunters hold both. ICICI Amazon Pay also has better general acceptance being powered by VISA.

Great for Amazon, okay elsewhere

Exactly what it says on the tin. I get 5% on all Amazon purchases which is genuinely great. Outside Amazon, the 2% on other online transactions is decent. It is a solid no-fee card to keep in your wallet.

What I liked
  • No annual fee
  • 5% Amazon cashback is real money saved
  • Easy to get approved
What could be better
  • Not worth using for offline spends
  • 1% only outside online transactions
