The customers need to complete the purchase of the pre-booked product during the redemption window. The pre-booking option is available from October 4 to October 6.

How does the Amazon pre-booking scheme work?

Amazon offers the customers to pre-book smartphones and other products for as low as Re 1. The smartphones can be pre-booked between 12 AM on October 4 and 10 AM on October 6, while other products can be pre-booked between 12 AM on October 5 and 6 AM on October 6.

The customers should purchase the orders during the redemption window. The pre-booking scheme has been launched to guarantee early availability of the product during the ‘redemption window’ before the start of the ‘Great Freedom Festival’, according to Amazon.

The redemption window for mobile phones is from 12PM to midnight on October 6 while for other products the redemption will be allowed between 8PM to midnight.

The customers are allowed to choose Cash on Delivery (CoD) or Credit Card, Debit Card, Payment Wallets, Net-banking or E-Gift Vouchers, to complete the purchase during the redemption window. The pre-booking can be combined with other offers and discounts.

What products on Amazon can be pre-booked at Re 1?

All products listed under the Great Indian Festival sale can be pre-booked ahead of the actual sale. However, while most products can be pre-booked by just paying Re 1, some products may need a pre-payment of Rs 99 to reserve the product.

The customers are allowed to reserve multiple products at a time under the pre-booking scheme.
