Amazon had introduced the Amazon Pay EMI feature to enable its Indian mobile users to make purchases from the platform while allowing them to pay for their orders in easy monthly instalments. With the help of this service, users can avail instant credit via a digital process to purchase items on EMI without having to use a credit card.

The service has been powered by Capital Float and allows payments over EMIs ranging from one to nine months. It also allows you to keep a track of all your previous purchases, repayments, and other details from a simplified dashboard. 

Amazon has said that customers can avail credit within 60 seconds and that it does not involve any processing fees or hidden charges of any kind. However, users should note that this feature is currently applicable only on single item purchases that exceed ₹8,000 without any exchange offers.

How to use Amazon Pay EMI?

To make purchases using the Amazon Pay EMI facility, you need to check if the product you want to purchase is available on EMI. To do so, you simply need to click on the EMI options tab which is available on the product details page. If you don’t find the option, it means the product does not come with an EMI facility.

If the product offers an EMI option, you just need to add that product to your shopping cart and go to the EMI menu > Amazon Pay EMI during checkout. Here, the app will allow you to choose an EMI plan from the options available. Amazon may ask you to provide your debit card details here for EMI repayments if it’s your first purchase and you haven’t set up the auto repayment option.
