[sundarrajs]

I could able to purchase Amazon gift card from amazon 5 days ago. Now when I try to purchase it shows only debit card or UPI. Amazon shows credit cards are not available for the gift card purchase.

Yes, Amazon is disabling the credit card option for gift card purchases for many users. You can't do anything about it. There are many other platforms that allow buying Amazon gift cards using credit cards.

Yes, the credit card option is still available for me. As of now, it depends on the user, but maybe in the future, it will be disabled for all.

Guys - please relax
The limit of vouchers that can be bought via CC is capped. Once you cross that cap, CC option gets disabled.

Using a Credit card, the combined amount of [Gift cards + Amazon Vouchers] that can be purchased is as below:

• 30-days: INR 30,000
• 60-days: INR 40,000
• 90-days: INR 50,000
• 365-days: INR 3,60000

There are other ways of bypassing these limits, IYKYK.

Don't worry this is standard Amazon practice. If you buy using CCs once they will disable that option for you for some time and later unlock it. If you buy once in a while within the limits they won't have a problem. If you try to buy in bulk all the time they might disable it permanently.

• 90-days: INR 50,000
• 365-days: INR 3,60000

How come this calculation works. If the spend limit is 50k in 90 days, how will I spend more than 2L in 365 days (50x4 k in 90x4 days)?
