Prime Members Get First Pick — And Bigger Savings

Prime subscribers got early access starting at 12:00 AM on 8 May, a full day before the sale opened to the general public. Beyond the head start, Prime members are earning an extra 3% off on over 2 lakh products, unlimited 5% cashback on purchases made with the Amazon Pay ICICI Bank credit card, and up to ₹250 cashback on select carts — perks that stack meaningfully on already-discounted sale prices.

For non-Prime shoppers, the sale went live at 12:00 AM on 9 May, though without the stacked Prime benefits, the effective savings are noticeably lower on big-ticket items.
