Amazon Pay ends Wallet Partial Payment!
Now, you won’t be able to Combine Amazon Pay Balance with Card/UPI/Netbanking for Completing a Transaction!

Today, Amazon India announced that users will no longer be able to combine Amazon Pay Wallet balance with other modes of payment (card, UPI, APL, etc.) to complete a transaction. The company already stopped it for select users 1-2 months back. Dimer @ashb009 used to utilize his Amazon Pay wallet balance for high-valued transactions along with grabbing credit card discount/cashback offers. Thus, he used to save 5% (cashback) via Amazon Pay Gift Card Wallet & Amazon ICICI Card plus get other credit card payment offers (discount/cashback/reward points/etc.).
For instance, if your transaction amount is ₹30,650 and bank offer is of 10% discount upto ₹2500 on min transaction of ₹9000, then you can pay ₹5,650 via your Amazon Pay balance and the remaining ₹25,000 via bank card. Thus, your total savings would be ₹2500 (bank discount) + ₹282 (5%) along with utilization of your ₹5.6k Amazon Pay balance! More the transaction value, more could have been the savings! However, such Amazon Pay wallet partial payment utilization has now ended.
People mostly used this hack for saving on utility & bill payments every month. Now, if you want to use your Amazon Pay balance then the transaction amount should be equal or lesser than it. If not then you need to ‘add money’ (Amazon Pay offers) to your wallet first to fulfill the equation and then you will be able to use it. In short, pay completely via Amazon Pay wallet or use other payment methods.
Still there might be users who can access partial payment but Amazon Pay has confirmed that it will stop by the coming weeks, after which no user will be able to use it.
It was also a very convenient feature as payments at merchants (who accept Amazon Pay) went seamless as you simply needed to pay the outstanding via UPI/card/net banking in the same transaction session. However, now you first need to check your Amazon Pay balance and add money if required, after which you can proceed for a merchant transaction as a payment session lasts only for a few minutes.

Glad that I took the pre-approved Airtel axis card against my better judgement, although i have 7 rupay platinum debit cards.
I have a 3K+ electricity bill a month. Airtel Axis gives 10% upto 250 or 300
Amazon used to give 20% on 500 and 5% on remaining 2.5k I used to source from SBI CB card. Which comes to around 225 rupees

https://www.desidime.com/news/amazon-pay-ends-wallet-partial-payment?page=1#post_10092466
Gradually they rolled out this feature. 2-3 months back not working for me in 1 account.
I thought it is because of full KYC but it was their plan to disable partial payment.
https://www.desidime.com/news/amazon-pay-ends-wallet-partial-payment?page=1#post_10092574
so suppose we have 20 in wallet we wont be able to use it untill we reload the wallet to use it ? right

The notification says the feature will be removed in phases for everyone. Maybe you will not be able to see it after a few months.

This will discourage customers to load their Amazon Pay wallet for low end purchases unless they come up with lucrative rewards/cashbacks for loading wallets. No one would be willing to go through the trouble of first loading their wallets and then make the payment if they can pay directly from their UPI/cards etc.

They are now forcing add money in wallet

Does Amazon pay allow premium payment above 50k?
https://www.desidime.com/news/amazon-pay-ends-wallet-partial-payment?page=1#post_10099920
I purchased a lenovo gaming laptop worth 80k on amazon. I paid 25k through onecard to get Rs 6750 card discount and for the rest 55k I bought amazon shopping voucher through magicpin at 3% discount + 5% sbi cashback. Thats another Rs 4400 discount. Total benefit of around 11k. Better deal than what would I have got during the upcoming big billion sale as the laptop was already discounted to its lowest price till now.
https://www.desidime.com/news/amazon-pay-ends-wallet-partial-payment?page=1#post_10099994
In magicpin there is no 3% discount on Amazon shopping gv right now. When did you purchase it?

For utility/ bill payments or recharge understandable. But amazon has diabled even for shopping, this is seriously frustrating. I am unable to combined even for normal shopping.
