Do you have a gift card from Amazon or another retailer and you’re wondering how to use it?
If they’re not expired, gift cards can be used just like cash for purchases. If you have a Visa gift card, you can use it on Amazon to buy the things you need.
In this article, we’re going to go over how to use your Visa gift card on Amazon.
How To Use A Visa Gift Card On Amazon
As you may know, Amazon accepts many gift cards and other pre-paid cards that can be redeemed to purchase items online. In fact, many shoppers prefer gift cards because they have so many uses.
Follow these steps to use your Visa gift card on Amazon (And note: You can use several different cards to add up to a large sum).
- Go to Amazon.com’s Reload Your Balance page
- Enter the amount on your Visa gift card (you’ll have to do this for each subsequent Visa card as well)
- You’ll have to sign in to continue. Once you do that, tap the “Edit” button where it says payment method
- Tap “Add a card”
- Enter your gift card balance and other information
- Select your gift card and tap “Done” button
- It will take you back to the Reload Your Balance page, where you can verify the balance by tapping “Reload”
Once you complete those seven steps, your Visa card will be loaded onto your Amazon account and you can begin using it to buy stuff.
Last Words
Amazon doesn’t take all gift cards. They have to meet the guidelines that they have set out.
Here are two restrictions that apply to Visa, American Express and -MasterCard:
- The gift cards can’t be combined with credit cards on a single purchase
- Amazon also doesn’t use the three-digit CVV code normally found on the back of some cards
