This Itechguide teaches you how to redeem Amazon gift card. The guide covers 2 options to redeem Amazon gift card – from your Amazon Gift Card account or at order checkout.

Option 1: Redeem Gift Card from Your Gift Card Account

Your Amazon account can store gift cards so you can use them later. You can apply the dollar value of an Amazon Gift Card to your Amazon Gift Card balance. Here is how…

This first method is useful if you received a gift card but you are not ordering anything immediately. To avoid misplacing the card, you can apply it to your Amazon account to use later.
  • Open Amazon.com from a browser on your PC. Then, on the top right of the page, hover over Account & Lists and click Sign in.

  • Next time you shop at Amazon, at the checkout page, you will have the option to apply the balance to your order.

Option 2: Redeem Gift Card from the Order Checkout Page

When you are placing an order, you have the option to redeem a gift card and apply the value to your order. Here are the steps to redeem a gift card at Amazon order checkout page.

  • On the right pane of the item you wish to buy, click Add to Basket. DO NOT use the Buy Now button as it may not offer you the option to redeem a gift voucher. The item will be added to your basket – your basket will open automatically.
  • At the extreme right of your Amazon basket, click Proceed to checkout.
  • Then, at the Payment method section of your order checkout page, beneath Add a gift card or promotional code, enter the gift card number and click Apply. The gift card will be applied and your Order Total value will be reduced by the amount in the gift card.
  • To complete your order, at the top right of the right pane, click Buy now.
