In USA online usage of the card mostly required with Amazon, usage and air ticket bookings.

Of these, my SBI foreign travel card is declined for Amazon and Uber. This is a major draw back. Will the concerned authorities look into this and make these cards usable for both in Amazon and for Uber.

This is very important issue.
