How to Pay on Amazon Using a Gift Card
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 фев 2015
- In this video tutorial you will learn how to pay on Amazon using a gift card. You will first need to open an Amazon.com account and redeem your gift card. Once you do so, the gift card amount will be applied to your Amazon account. You can then use this account balance to pay for any purchases you make on the Amazon website.
You have to make sure that you use the correct gift card on the respective website. Amazon has different websites for the United States, Canada, UK, Australia and others. So you have to make sure you are using the right gift card on the respective Amazon website. If not, it won’t work and you will not be able to use it.
Please note that you may still be required to enter your credit card or bank account details at the time of checkout even though you are using your gift card balance to make the payment. Amazon will not charge your credit card or bank account if your payment doesn’t exceed the balance in your gift card account balance.
FYI, you cannot use your gift card balance to buy other gift cards. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave them in the comments section.

*pin this comment if you can* For those of you who already have redeemed your gift card go to customer service and ask them to unredeem the card, you will get your money back in your card and can use a different account with a credit on it and activate your gift card on that account.
@Sienna Vargas thanks! I was not aware that Amazon allowed gift cards to be unredeemed. I'm assuming you've done this or confirmed this with Amazon?
@@AnthonyGodinho yes i have :)!
@Sienna Vargas awesome...thanks much! :)
hello ? where i can do this ? can u give more details plz
bcz i dont know how we do it, I tried but i couldnt find out and i need those 99$ plz
It's dumb that they make you use a credit card info even tho ur using a gift card, what if you don't have a credit card
Hi there, I agree, it's very customer-friendly. This requirement is for first-time buyers and I believe for digital products (for security reasons and for confirming the address). Some products are only available for purchase to US residents. Anyway, many of my viewers were able to use their Amazon gift card without needing a credit card. They entered their gift card code directly at checkout, instead of first applying it to their Amazon account. Alternatively, Amazon also accepts pre-paid VISA cards (even with $10 or $20 credit in it) that can be purchased at retailers like Walmart. Hope this helps.
Anthony Godinho if i don't enter my credit card info what will be going..
Hi Asraf, if they ask for credit or debit card info and you don't enter it, your order will not be processed.
Anthony Godinho if i use paypal gift card how thus it work...if it work.
Hi Asraf, I'm not a 100% sure, but I don't think Amazon accepts PayPal. However, there are other sites like eGifter where you can buy Amazon gift cards using PayPal and then use the gift card to pay on Amazon.
Thank you so much! I was just stopping in to check if the order SHOULD really say "Order total: $0.00" and as of the looks of it, it should! Thanks you!
+sean higgins Hi Sean, yes, the order total shows as zero. I know it's a little odd for it to show zero, but that's the way they show it. Thanks for stopping by and I'm glad this helped!
but what if we don't have a credit/debit card??? 😭😭😭😭
+wanda gump Hi Wanda, some of my viewers were able to purchase without a credit/debit card. Essentially, you should use the Amazon gift card code directly at checkout instead of applying it your Amazon account. Hope that makes sense and works for you. Alternatively, you can also use the prepaid VISA cards that can be purchased at Walmart for $10 or $20.
Is it too late to go back and not enter my gift card? Lol
+wanda gump If you've already applied your gift card amount to your Amazon account, then unfortunately I don't think you can reverse it and use the gift card code again :(
+Anthony Godinho okay, thank you anyway!
+Anthony Godinho This is a really shady business practice. They should not get to choose if i'm allowed to spend a gift card based on my banking/CC details. What a silly rule, its not like there system cannot detect that I only have xx dollars on my gift card so no risk of me going over. Simple, if i dont have enough balance then I wont be able to buy it. This is just a way for them to get some extra profits in the hopes I will give up and not use my card. Even more its illogical that if you enter it directly at checkout it works, but not after you load the account, that is just plain stupid. Anyway I have no CC and no Bank account but already loaded a $25 gift card, so I guess im screwed until i get around to getting a credit/debit card. Pretty pointless way to do it if there intentions are good. I love amazon and this is the first shady thing I have seen from them.
Thankyou😭 they kept putting mine through the process , I learned going to safari & looking up amazon then switching it to desktop mode worked .
This helped alot thank you so much, i was really concerned but now I know!
You're welcome Jonas! I'm glad it helped. Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback!
@@AnthonyGodinho bro I’m super late but I already bought something from Amazon and I had leftovers so I wanted to buy something else so I pressed the buy button then it said put your gift card code and I did and it said this money has already been added to your account and i know that and it’s not letting me buy anything else even though I have leftovers. (I’m using a phone between)
Hi @Miguel Velazquez I'm only seeing this comment now. Looks like there was a glitch with RUclips comment notifications because I've received several comment notifications from a month ago.
If you've not yet got this sorted out, I think the issue is that you will need to enter your debit or credit card information for security and verification purposes.
This really helped me out cuz I didn't know you had to have a bank account or credit or debit card attached to the account to use a gift card
+VortexBlessing You're welcome. I'm glad it helped. BTW, this requirement of debit or credit card is only for the first purchase. Also, some of my viewers have been able to bypass this requirement by using the gift card code directly at checkout instead of applying the gift card code to your Amazon account. Hope this makes sense.
Same
So I still need a credit card or bank account even though I bought a gift card to complete the order? The thing I'm buying is $21 and I bought a $25 gift card.
have you tried that before pro hacks
No, but I'm pretty sure that your supposed to do that if u don't have a bank account or debit card
do you think i'm better of getting a visa gift card
Hi there, based on my experience using my Amazon gift card - I had to enter my credit card details even though I had enough money in my Amazon gift card balance to pay for my purchase. Though they didn't charge my credit card. Having said so, many of my viewers were able to use their Amazon gift card without having to enter their credit or debit card information. They did so by entering their gift card code directly at checkout instead of first applying the code to their Amazon account. BTW, I checked with Amazon and they do accept a pre-paid VISA card instead of a regular credit card as well. Hope this helps.
thanks
Thanks. I couldn't figure out how to use it and just a few seconds you showed me how. Now the balance is sitting there until I need to use it.
You're welcome Marie! I'm glad this Amazon gift card tutorial helped you. Thanks for stopping by!
Can you get a refund on an Amazon eGift Card if the other person you emailed it to can't access it?
I had to use my mom's Visa card to buy the hyper 212 Evo and now her card is charged with $3 :/ we all love taxes don't we
Yeah, we sure do eh? :/
This is the first time I purchased from the Amazon.COM (US) website. I generally purchase from the Amazon Canada (Amazon.CA) website. The reason I was forced to purchase from the US website is because I had over US$200 in Amazon.com gift cards which could only be applied to the US website, not the Canadian website. I created a video tutorial on how to go about doing so.
Amazon does allow international customers to purchase some products from the US website and even though the choice is limited, some of the prices are much better compared to the ones on the Canadian website.
I researched some products and compared the prices to the ones on the Canadian website. Even after the exchange rate considerations, the prices on the US website were still priced lower. Of course, you have to take into consideration, the import fees.
One thing I noticed is that they charged me $21.24 for shipping which they shouldn't have because my order qualified for free shipping. So I contacted Amazon and they immediately reversed that amount.
The other caveat was that they require you to enter your credit card or bank account details even though you will be paying using your gift card balance. However, they don't charge your credit card or bank account if your purchase doesn't exceed your Amazon gift card balance. Overall, my first experience and impressions was a positive one. #Amazon #AmazonPaymentOptions
+Anthony Godinho is it really necessary to enter our credit card details? if i have a debit card , will that work ?
Hi Rowshan Ali I just responded to your other comment/question.
Some of my readers who've purchased from Amazon have not had to enter their credit/debit card or details. I believe if you enter your Amazon gift card code at checkout, after purchasing the products, you don't have to enter your credit card details.
That is, make sure not to apply the gift card code to your Amazon account balance, just apply it directly at checkout.
Yes, a debit card will work as well, however, I'm not sure if they have restrictions for certain banks. Thanks for stopping by and let me know how things work out for you with your Amazon purchase.
I will buy a gift card because I don't have any credit or debt card, so how am I going to use my gift card if you say the credit card is needed?
Hi there, if you buying on Amazon for the first time, you will most probably need to enter credit or debit card information for security and verification purposes. Instead of a regular credit card, Amazon also accepts a pre-paid VISA card which you can get at retailers like Walmart. You are better off getting a pre-paid VISA card instead of an Amazon gift card if you don't have a regular credit card of debit card.
I have 2 questions. First, why does it ask for your credit card if you have the gift card? And second, will it ask for your signature when you receive the package?
Ah that's where I was screwing up, needed to add my credit card details (even if they aren't needed).
Thanks mate! This video was very explanatory and easy to follow, even if my problem was stupidly simple to find the solution for it haha.
LOL yeah, sometimes somethings are, like you said, "stupidly simple" :) You're welcome. I'm glad the video helped. BTW, some of my viewers were able to use their gift card without having to enter their credit/debit card details. They used their gift card code directly at checkout instead of first applying it to their Amazon account. Anyway, I'm glad you were able to successfully have your transaction processed. Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback...it's appreciated!
@Twls7eDmushroomc; Hi, it's difficult to say what the exact issue is, but it may be that you don't have enough balance in your Amazon gift card for the products(s) you're trying to purchase. Alternatively, you may have enough balance to purchase the product, but there are also taxes and shipping costs involved. Try using the chat feature so you can chat live with an Amazon representative who will be able to pinpoint the exact issue.
P.S: There is an issue with "replying" to RUclips comments, that's the reason I'm posting this response as a separate comment.
Anthony Godinho can you reply to this
Yes, I can reply to this :) I guess the issue I had was because of the way the user has set up their account (i.e. privacy settings).
Anthony Godinho can you do it without a credit card
The big bad Wolf Hi, some of my viewers were able to do it without the credit card. They used the gift card code directly at checkout instead of first applying it to their Amazon account. Hope that works for you too.
Anthony Godinho um... sorry to disturb but I kinda logged out my account and uh tried to log in and I did so I tried to use my gift card and it said it said its redeemed to another account and can you help me please
please help me idk if I bought the stuff the 25€ stills in my amazon acc what does that mean?
+Rania Xo Hi, when you completed your order, did you get an order confirmation number? If not, your order probably didn't go through. Sorry for the delayed response...I'm currently out of town.
Thank you, I thought I could just buy stuff with my gift card but didn’t know I needed to add a regular card first and I was getting pretty mad
You're welcome! Yeah unfortunately, you do require a debit or credit card when using an Amazon gift card for the first time. Though, they do also accept a pre-paid credit card, instead of a regular credit card. That being said, some of my viewers were able to bypass this requirement by using the gift card claim code directly at checkout instead of first applying it to the Amazon account.
I just got off the phone with one of the Amazon Specialists and they said you still have to be required to put in your credit card information and Bank information even if you're going to pay with a gift card which totally sucks I recommend you guys create a Walmart account because they don't even ask you for credit card or bank information you can still pay with a gift card by itself only which is good!
@SonicX15 * yes, that's what I had to do as well. I was told it is required for verification and security reasons. I do agree that the Amazon policy sucks. That being said, some of my viewers were able to use their gift card claim code by entering it directly at checkout (instead of first applying it to their account) without having to enter their credit card info. Also, Amazon accepts a pre-paid VISA card instead of a regular credit card, even if it has a small balance like $10.
@@AnthonyGodinho yeah that's kind of a good idea but there's only one problem I've had one of those Green Dot prepaid Visa cards before and let me tell you they're dangerous they charge too many fees including monthly fees and that's actually dangerous I had to close down my account because of that and also I haven't seen any video tutorials on anyone using a gift card claim code to buy it directly without the credit card and Bank information I've been trying to look for a video but I still haven't seen it, at least the good thing with the Walmart gift card like I said before they don't charge you nothing, once you have your money you keep your money and no stupid monthly fees or any other type of charge fees
@SonicX15 * yeah, I hear you. True, many of these pre-paid VISA cards charge you fees, though there are ones that don't charge you. I have credit cards, so I had no issues, but I can understand how frustrating it can be for those that don't. I do like the convenience shopping at Amazon, the range of products they have and getting same day and 2-day shipping via Amazon Prime. Also, I believe the credit card is only required for first-time buyers, once they verify, you don't need it again. I've not shopped online at Walmart, but do like their policies. I'm sure Amazon loses a lot of business because of this stringent credit/debit card policy.
I have a question! If I buy something from Amazon using the Gift Card, does it also pay for Shipping?!
Hi there, yes, you can pay for shipping and other related costs of your purchase using your gift card.
If it’s free shipping no if it says you have to pay an amount for shipping yes but if you pay over $25 most of them are free shipping
Hey I got a question if I had more than one Amazon gift card can I add them to my account?
+Michael Stewart Hi Michael, yes, you can add multiple Amazon gift cards to your Amazon account.
This helped so much , thanks !

Anthony Godinho you too, stay safe from the virus, i hope you are doing well ❤️
@Doodlist thanks much...yes, I'm doing well so far!
Anthony Godinho glad to hear that
When ever I put in my claim code during checkout it says I already applied it to my account and won't let me check out anything
Hi Kayla, if you're getting that message indicating that you've already applied the claim code to your Amazon account, you will need to use the checkbox at checkout where it says "Use Your Gift Card Balance".
To verify that the claim code has indeed been applied to your gift card balance, you can go to the "Gift Cards" section in your Amazon account and then click on "View Your Balance". Hope this helps.
@@AnthonyGodinho where does it say that
Hi @s I'm assuming you're asking where it says "Use Your Gift Card Balance"? If so, it's at checkout on the screen where you have to enter your debit or credit card details. You will see it in this video tutorial. Hope this helps!
@@AnthonyGodinho oh, well turns out the gift card i got was $10 and i live in UK where the currency is different so im not sure what to do lol
@s Oh ok - yeah, you cannot use a US$ gift card on the UK Amazon site. However, you can still use it on the US Amazon site. Alternatively, you may be able to exchange the gift card. There are some sites that allow you to exchange gift cards, but I've personally not tried any of them.
Bro you made this video like 16,856 years ago but it's still helping people today!!
LOL yeah bro - it's a very old video :) but I do get a lot of questions, so I do my best to answer them. Thanks for stopping by...cheers!
@@AnthonyGodinho My pleasure. I really had no idea how to use my gift card til i stopped by last night. Now I will be the proud owner of a UV Filter for my camera lens :)
@Victor Hensel-Coe that's great. I'm glad this video helped. UV filter for your camera lens sounds fantastic :)
Thank You !
+xImSoWeird you're welcome!
Could you use a prepaid card instead of a Amazon card?
Hi Ravneet, yes, you can use a pre-paid VISA card when shopping on Amazon.
Ahh, thank you
You're welcome Miguel.
THANK YOU you made my life easier
You're welcome Julian. I'm glad this tutorial helped!
Found this very useful, thank you
You're welcome. I'm glad you found it useful. Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. Cheers!
Anthony I did try to buy a xbox one 20$ gift card codes on amazon but I did not use the credit card or bank card when I go ahead to buy it I got the order codes money was remove but I did not get the xbox one codes... I have a chat with amazon they told me I have to use a bank card or debit card to get it to work so they refund me back the money
Hi there, thanks for sharing your experience with us here. Yeah, I believe some of the digital purchases require a credit/debit card to be used because of usage rights depending in which country you are. I'm told that they use the credit/debit card to confirm the location. I'm glad that you were able to get your refund promptly. Overall, I've found their customer service very responsive. Thanks again for taking the time to share your feedback and experience...it's much appreciated!
Thank you !!
You're welcome!
Thank you bro, this is very useful. I was trying to find videos like this one and it was very hard to find it.
You're welcome bro. I'm glad this tutorial helped!
I don't own a credit card or debit card, would I still be able to purchase a product with just my gift card balance??
G-A your chatting
No
Same?
@corey Varnum Yeah, Amazon requires a debit or credit card (for verification purposes), but they won't charge the card if you have enough balance in your gift card.
That being said, some of my viewers were able to use their gift card claim code directly at checkout, instead of first applying the claim code to your gift card balance.
If you've already applied it to your Amazon account, you can use a prepaid VISA card which can be purchased at retailers like Walmart. Amazon accepts a prepaid VISA card even if it has a small balance like $10. Hope this helps!
@@AnthonyGodinho dude thanks helped me alot
Hi, I have done 2 IAP before with no problem one of them was a $30 dollar one so I shouldn't have a problem this time.
Hi again, yeah I agree, if you've conducted IAP before on Amazon, you shouldn't have an issue. Perhaps there is an issue at their end or with your account. Either way, it's best to contact Amazon Support. I generally use their online live chat service and have found it very useful.
Once you're logged into your Amazon account, go to the bottom of the page and click the Help link. Then scroll to the bottom again and under the "Need More Help" section, you will find a Contact link. I'm sure they will be able to sort this out for you. If you get a chance, do let me know what the issue was.
Paid for a gift card but I don't have a credit card 😢
Hi there, if you haven't yet applied your gift card claim code to your Amazon account, try using the claim code directly at checkout (when paying for your order). This has worked for some of my viewers and they didn't have to use their debit or credit card. Alternatively, Amazon also accepts a pre-paid VISA card instead of a regular credit card. You can get a prepaid VISA card from stores like Walmart, even if it has a small balance like $10. Hope this helps!
also do I have to redeem my gift card before I add something to the cart or after?
Hi again Charles, I just responded to your question in your earlier comment. Basically, you don't need to redeem your gift card first, you can use the gift card claim code directly at checkout.
Can we apply 2 or more gift cards to one item at the checkout? Cuz I'm buying a camera that cost $1.1K, and the maximum amount of money in amazon gift card is only 500$
Hi there, as far as I know, you can apply multiple gift cards at checkout. I've personally not tried it. I have however, tried adding multiple gift cards to my Amazon account. You can check the Amazon gift card policy info link in the description section. Hope this helps.
Tks for replying, btw, non related question, I have 27 items in my cart and want to order it at the same time, Can I somehow do it dat way?
You're welcome buddy. Yes, you should be able to place the order of all 27 items together in one order. However, they will most probably be shipped in several shipments. They will notify you if that is the case. Cheers!
Cheers!
Hi. So i have to add a credit card even if i don't use it to pay the order? Thank you! :)
+Rusu Codrin Hi Rusu, yes, as per Amazon's policies, first-time buyers have to enter their credit or debit card information into their Amazon accounts, even if you're going to use a gift card. They will not charge your credit card as long as you have enough money in your gift card balance to pay for your purchases.
Having said so, some of my viewers were able to bypass this requirement by using their gift card code directly at checkout instead of first applying it to their Amazon account. Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any further questions.
+Anthony Godinho Yesterday when I tried to buy something i saw that I can add the gift card code directly at checkout, but I would like to know if I can use more than one (let's say that I have 3 gift cards of 5$ and i want to use them all). If anyone know, please tell me. Thank you again!
+Rusu Codrin Hi Rusu, I've personally not tried this, but I just checked with Amazon US (a rep by name Jonathan) confirmed to me that you can use multiple gift card codes directly at checkout. So hopefully it works for you. Do let me know how things work out. Note that there are some restrictions when using gift cards. You can check the Amazon gift card policies here: amzn.to/1WcNbjg
Thank you so much !
You're welcome!
I don't have a credit card and I already put In my gift card what do I do??!
Hi, have you tried placing an order? If so, does it ask you for a credit / debit card? Most probably, I think it will. One option is to get a pre-paid credit card, like the ones you can get at Walmart (even for $20). You should be able to use the pre-paid card when using your Amazon gift card. Amazon will not charge your credit card if you have sufficient money in your gift card to pay for your purchase. Hope this helps.
You should've applied your code at checkout then u dont need a credit card thats what i did
i redeemed it and never used it but when i finally need it ... i cant order anything because i literally need a credit card i hate myself-
@y o o n g l e s you may still be able to do it without a credit card. Trying placing an order and use your gift card balance. The transaction will not go through right away and could take up to 48 hours for Amazon to verify it.
If it doesn't go through, I would suggest contacting Amazon customer service. They may be able to help you. I generally use the live chat option under the Help section. I've created a tutorial on how to use Amazon Live Chat. You'll find a link in the description section.
Also, like I mentioned in my earlier comment above, Amazon also accepts a prepaid VISA card instead of a regular credit card. Hope this helps...cheers!
Anthony Godinho - like i cant continue:/
I've received amazon.ca gift card and I have amazon.ca account and amazon.com account... When I try to pay on amzon. Ca I've received that the gift card is already in my account, what to do
Hi @Jh Lalnuntluangi yes, you can use the Canadian gift card only on the Amazon Canada website. Looks like you've already applied your gift card claim code to your Amazon account.
Most probably, you will need to enter your credit or debit card information when using the gift card balance to pay for your purchase. Amazon also accepts a pre-paid VISA card instead of a regular credit card, even if it has a small balance like $10.
This is required for verification and security reasons. Amazon will not charge your credit card if you have enough balance in your gift card to pay for your purchase. Hope this helps!
I forgot to mention this - in order to use your gift card balance, make sure to check the little box at checkout. You will see it in the tutorial.
Thank you sooooo much for your reply... Problem solved...
Awesome @Jh Lalnuntluangi and you're welcome!
so what you’re saying is in order to use the gift card to continue my purchase in the shipping part is to put my credit or debit card info jn the other options?
Hi there, yes, if you're a first-time buyer on Amazon (using your gift card), you will most probably be required to enter your debit or credit card information. This is required for verification and security reasons. Amazon will not charge your debit/credit card if you have enough balance in your gift card to pay for your purchase. Hope this helps!
Thanks so much bro your such a king 👑
@Maxdecoy you're most welcome bro!
I don't have a credit card and I just spent all of my money on this gift card.. what should I do
Hi Charles, if you haven't yet applied your gift card claim code to your Amazon account, you can try using the claim code directly at checkout. Some of my viewers were able to do that without having the need to enter their credit card details. Alternatively, Amazon also accepts a pre-paid VISA card even if it has a balance of $10 or $20. Pre-paid VISA cards can be obtained from retailers like Walmart. Hope this helps.
Does the shipping cost come out of the giftcard?
Hi there, yes, you can pay for everything including taxes and shipping costs of your order with your Amazon gift card.
BTW, you can get free shipping if you're an Amazon Prime member. If you don't have Prime membership, you can get a one-month free trial and always cancel before your membership renews. Bear in mind that not all items on Amazon are eligible for free shipping. If interested, you can check the link in the description section to get your free trial.
Do you have to sign to get the package? Like when they come to your door. Or do they knock
Hi there, yes, when they deliver the package, you will most probably have to sign. Or whoever receives the package on your behalf.
This man deserves an award for helping out with information

Hi +TaniaWalker, be careful of sites that offer free Amazon gift card codes. Most of these sites are spam/scam sites. There are very few sites that offer points that can be collected and converted to Amazon gift card codes. I believe one of these sites is Swagbucks. I'm not a member of that site nor can I recommend it because I personally don't have experience with the site. But I do know some people who have got Amazon gift cards by being a member on the site and collecting points for signing up for offers, taking surveys, etc. Hope this helps.
This may be from a while ago and you might have done research on the site but Swagbucks is by far a great site to use for gaining gift cards for a wide array of things and companies. I have used it for years and have racked up $1000+ dollars by doing the bare minimum amount of work for it. If someone were to put a good amount of time in each day they could score gift cards very easily.
FelixR68 Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback about your experience with Sawgbucks. I know some people who've done decent with it and it's great to know that it's worked out well for you too. When I get time, I do try some of these sites, but have never had a chance to check it out myself.
Anthony Godinho If I don't add my bank account card will it still work because I have a gift card
Hi Sara, generally speaking for first-time buyers, Amazon requires a credit or debit card for verification purposes. They won't charge your credit or debit card if you have enough money in your gift card to pay for your purchase. But, some of my viewers were able to use the gift card claim code directly at checkout without having to enter credit or debit card information.
So if you've not yet applied your gift card claim code to your Amazon account, then you can try using the claim code directly at checkout. Hope that works for you.
Thankyou very much bro. I'm also strucking to use my gift card untill watch your video. It's very usefull god bless you🤩🤩🤩
@Karthiban Seee you're welcome bro! I'm glad this tutorial helped. God bless you too...stay safe!
So u can use visa prepaid as the credit card when ur using an amazon gift card?
***** Hi, yes, that's what I'm told. Though, I've personally not used a prepaid VISA card. I used my regular credit card. From speaking to Amazon, they mentioned that a credit card is only required for the first time, when using an Amazon gift card.
I bought a 50 dallied one and I'm going to buy a bunch of fidget spinner
Thank you so much you saved my life
You're welcome. Thanks for stopping by!
Cause according to the bank pre pains are like $500. Gift cards are 28
Thanks for this content I needed it🥰
You're welcome!
Quick question I want to buy some shoes from stadium goods and I have 120 dollars on my Amazon acc from a gift card will I be able to use it as amazon pay and pay the rest with my card?
Hi there, yes, you can use your gift card balance and your credit card together to pay for your purchase. At checkout, make sure to check the box for "Use Gift Card Balance" (if you've already applied your gift card claim code) and then enter your credit card details. Hope this helps!
Thanks alot this helped me alot ordering products from the ordinary. First timer kitt. Have a great day🤍
You're welcome Fawza! I'm glad this tutorial helped in ordering your products. Thanks for stopping by. Wishing you a great day as well. Stay safe and blessed 🤍

You're welcome!
I've got a question about digital purchase. Here's my problem: i would like to buy a few songs but i live outside United States. I've already heard you need to be physically in US to purchase (they say this can be bypassed) and have a credit card that is "issued by a local bank" - but i don't have any. Has anyone managed to deal with this kind of problem when it comes to digital order?
if u r in the UK there is an amazon there
really helpful in quarantine
@Alek Barroga lol yeah, I agree!
Hey, can I use a pre-paid visa card instead of actual credit card / bank information? Its making me type in Credit card or link a bank...... I have none of those, so I thought maybe I can use a pre-paid card. Is that possible before I actually buy a pre-paid card?
Also do you know any online store that don't require typing in credit info or linking a bank account?
THANK YOU!!!
Hi Angelo, sorry for the delayed response, I'm in a different timezone and just starting my day. Yes, I've spoken to Amazon in the past, and they have informed me that pre-paid VISA card is acceptable instead of a regular credit or debit card. Make sure to register the pre-paid VISA card to your name and address when you get it.
In terms of your second question, what types of products are you looking to buy. I've personally not purchased stuff online without my credit card, other than Amazon. So at this time I don't know. But, I'm sure there are other sites out there that don't need a credit card and you can just use gift cards. Happy New Year!
thank you so much you are a life saver!!!! :D
You're most welcome. I'm glad this tutorial helped...cheers!
Thanks so much :)
You're welcome! :)
I have told every one to subscriber to u u have helped me do a lot of stuff I have subscribed cence 900 subcriberz
Thanks much Dominique...it's much appreciated!
Thats a real king
do i have to put in the Credit or Debit Cards information to finish the order
Hi Marius, I had to put my credit card information when I first purchased on Amazon. However, they did not charge my credit card because I had enough balance in my Amazon gift card to pay for the purchase. Having said so, some of my viewers were able to bypass this requirement by using their gift card code directly at checkout, instead of first applying the gift card code to their Amazon account. So if you have not yet applied the gift card code to your account, try using the code directly at checkout without entering your credit card info. Hope this helps. Happy New Year!
Thanks, very helpful
You're welcome Nathalie. I'm glad this tutorial helped!
thank you! really helped for me
You're welcome @HiddenKilla Thanks for stopping by!
thanks from UK
You're welcome Michael...cheers!
Ok thx very helpful
+Spike Gaming Ok great...hoping all works out well for you with your purchase!
Can u bypass with the claim code directly when u payout on phone as well or do I need to do this on a comp?
Hi there, I've personally not tried it, so I can't confirm if it will work on the mobile app. However, if it doesn't work, you can get in touch with Amazon and let them know that you don't have a credit card.
@@AnthonyGodinho okay thanks
Oh my gosh I did it I bought 2 things thank you so Mutch thumbs up
+Spike Gaming awesome...I'm glad that worked for you! Thanks for letting me know :)
Do u use a credit card??
@Nizar HD I don't think she used a credit card because in another comment she mentioned that she didn't have a credit card. So I asked her to use the gift card claim code directly at checkout instead of first applying it to her Amazon account. So I think she tried that and it worked for her.
Thank you
You're welcome Sulaiman!
I just went to the amazon website then went to the proceed to checkout, but diff then you explaine on the video they sent me to Select a shipping address.
Hi Harry, Amazon may have changed a few things around since I last created this video, but the process should not be very different. I had to enter my shipping address too. But in my case, since my address was already in their system, I just had to check a box to select my address. This step was soon after I clicked the "Proceed to Checkout" box. Did you have any issues completing your order?
Hi there, thanks for this useful video. It helps me a lot.
+Fiona Florence You're welcome Fiona ~ I'm glad it helped you. Thanks much for taking the time to leave your feedback!
Nice tips,,because sometimes i ordered online via amazon
Great video
Yeah, online shopping via Amazon is very convenient. This is one of my older videos :)
@@AnthonyGodinho yes i got a time to check of your couple video,,because it is very learnable not for me but to all of viewers,and it is very helpful video.
It ask me for a prime code when I'm about to pay
Thank you for the excellent tutorial on redeeming an Amazon Gift Card.
Simply explained, and envy your knowledge, creating amazing help videos. Wish I could do that.
+zulizali Hi, thanks for stopping by and for your kind comments. I'm sure you will be able to create videos too. I'm still trying to get better :)
@@AnthonyGodinho do I need the front code of the card first then the back code
@mehchocolate12 no, you only require the claim code at the back of the Amazon gift card. Were you able to successfully redeem the gift card?
P.S: My apologies for not responding earlier. Looks like there was an issue with RUclips comments because I just got the notification for this comment a couple of days ago along with a whole bunch of comments from a month ago. So, I'm just trying my best to respond to questions/comments I got in the past couple of days.
@@AnthonyGodinho do Amazon gift cards expire after a certain amount of time
@mehchocolate12 no there is no expiry dates on Amazon gift cards (as far as I know) at least not here in Canada. I generally apply the gift card(s) directly to my Amazon gift card balance, so it remains there for me to use at a later date. Hope this helps...cheers!
thank you
You're welcome!
Thanks
Thank you so much for the tutorial, it was a tremendous help. Btw i was able to use the gift card without having to fill any credit card info since i don't have one. Thanks again.
+molly tupas you're welcome Molly ~ I'm glad it helped. Yes, some of my readers had the same experience as you. That is, they didn't have to use a credit card. I'm assuming you used your Amazon Gift card code at checkout rather than first applying it to your Amazon account. If you do it that way, you don't need to enter a credit card or bank account. Thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback...it's much appreciated!
Quick question:.
I'm planning to buy a $32 Anime figure from Japan and I have $35 of gift card money in my Amazon account. Do I need to save up a $5 gift card for any fees or taxes? Or is $35 enough to pay for everything?
Hi there, yes, in most cases there will be taxes and shipping so you may need more money in your gift card balance. Also, if you're using Amazon for the first time, you may need to enter your debit or credit card information. They will not charge your debit/credit card if you have enough of money in your gift card balance to pay for your purchase. Hope this helps.
Thanks bro
You're welcome bro!
I entered the couched on my new account while trying to buy a psn digital code but it didn't go threw also I don't have any address or credit card info and it won't let me buy the code it's a email delivery purchase bbut it won't work any help?
Hi there, I think you will need to enter debit or credit card information. I would suggest contacting Amazon customer service (after 48 hours). Let them know that you don't have a credit card, they will try to verify it without one, but I think you will need an address.
When I need to contact Amazon, I use the live chat option which you will find under the Help section. If you can't find it, check my tutorial on How to Use Amazon Live Chat. You will find the link in the description section. Hope it helps...cheers!
if you use the card directly at check out does it the become a one use thing? Like if you have money left on it can you use it again even if u did not add it to your account?
Hi there, if you add your credit card at checkout, I believe it should give you an option to save it to your Amazon account if you wish to. Once you save the credit card to your Amazon account, you can use it again to pay for another transaction on Amazon in the future. I can't quite remember if it automatically saves your credit card information to your account. You can always check to see if the credit card is saved and remove it, if you don't want it saved. Hope that answers your question. Cheers!
Hello Anthony, quick question, what happen if u don't put down your credit card code? will it affect the ordering?
Hey Jamin, based on Amazon policies, first-time buyers need to enter their credit/debit card info even if you're using your gift card. They won't charge your credit/debit card if you have sufficient gift card balance. If you don't enter the requested info, your transaction won't go through.
However, some of my viewers were able to use their gift cards without entering their credit/debit card info. They entered their gift card code directly at checkout instead of first applying it to their Amazon account. So this may work for you too. Hope this helps.
Okay, Thank You for the information Anthony.
You're welcome Jamin!
