This festive season, Amazon India launches Amazon Pay Gift Cards for Corporate clients in East India. With the businesses who have corporate sales operations based out of Kolkata, the recipients will also get exclusive discount codes worth INR 1500 on Amazon Devices, Pantry, Fashion etc.
Amazon Gift Cards offer corporate decision makers a hassle-free gifting experience. By switching away from other gift cards, cash and physical merchandise, corporates have benefited from reduced handling and distribution efforts and costs. Currently, corporate buyers are gifting physical merchandize to customers, which involves a lot of inconvenience in terms of distribution, product handling, pilferage etc. Amazon Pay Gift Cards can be delivered via Email/SMS or as physical cards. Amazon has also recently launched a ‘Schedule’ feature for corporate clients, which will allow them to automate their gifting for festivals, birthdays/anniversary benefits and ease the process of issuance with no delays/missed deliveries. Corporates and Entrepreneurships in Kolkata can now by GCs for their employees, partners and the ecosystem as a whole.
Amazon also offers customization and company branding, with elegant packaging on Physical Gift Boxes. Physical gift cards can be presented as awards or gifts for special occasions. Cash bonuses do not have the personal touch of a “true gift,” while traditional mementos, desktop items and silver are not always appreciated by the end recipient. The Amazon Gift Card known for its convenience especially for managers who need quick procurement and easy disbursement, are a preferred option across the Corporate India. Amazon Pay Gift Cards provide seamless experience through its online presence and wide delivery network of 21k+ serviceable pin codes. Not only can it be used for shopping across 15 cr+ products on Amazon but can be directly used to book travel tickets/movie tickets or order food/pay for utility bills on multiple merchants like BookMyShow, Swiggy, Yatra, Cleartrip etc.
Recipients can also convert their Amazon Pay balance into the brand voucher of their choice. With more than 125+ vouchers listed on Amazon India like Shoppers Stop, Lifestyle, Joyalukkas, Josalukkas, MakeMyTrip, Big Bazaar, Croma etc. Over and above this, customers are also eligible for exciting discounts and offers on Amazon. This essentially means the gift card value becomes more than it actually is. Customers will also be eligible to purchase Prime Membership through these gift cards (or Amazon Pay balance) – it will open up a world of Free Music, Movies, access to unique products, better offers on Amazon and free shipping.
