Now Exchange Rs 2000 Notes Amazon Pay Balance Here’s How

Amazon Pay announced a new service known as ‘cash load at doorstep,’ which allows users to deposit Rs. 2000 notes in exchange for Amazon Pay balance. Rs. 2,000 notes will be phased out by the Reserve Bank of India as part of its ‘Clean Note Policy’ by September 30, 2023.

You can use this new Amazon Pay service to deposit your 2,000 notes with an Amazon delivery person during a cash-on-delivery order. By depositing them into your Amazon Pay balance, you can overcome the challenge of stores refusing to accept these notes.

How to deposit Rs. 2,000 notes into your Amazon Pay balance?

1. Complete the video KYC process on the Amazon app, which typically takes around 5–10 minutes.
2. Place a cash-on-delivery order through Amazon.
3. When the Amazon delivery agent arrives, hand over your ₹2,000 notes to them.
4. Shortly after, the balance in your Amazon Pay account will reflect the deposited amount.
5. Create a UPI handle on your Amazon Pay balance within a minute to start making payments effortlessly.

By depositing your ₹2,000 notes into your Amazon Pay balance, you gain the ability to scan and pay using QR codes at various shops, send money to individuals or phone numbers, and make payments on online apps.
