Our Review

The SimplyCLICK is a sleeper hit for online shoppers. The 10x on Amazon (with SBI points worth ~0.25 each) gives you an effective 2.5% back on Amazon — not as good as the Amazon Pay ICICI's 5% but stacks differently since it's SBI points, not Amazon balance. The real gem is the 5x on ALL online spends — any transaction coded as e-commerce gets 5x, which at ~0.25/point is 1.25% back on every online purchase. Use this as your online spending card alongside the Amazon Pay ICICI for direct Amazon purchases.
