How to redeem your prepaid gift card for Amazon cash.
Using prepaid gift cards at stores can be tricky. Sometimes the card is rejected and other times there are transaction fees. One way to avoid these hiccups is to just use your Visa gift card on Amazon instead.
If you aren’t ready to buy something just yet, that’s okay! You can store the credit on Amazon for later use. This simple trick can be used with multiple gift cards, too!
As long as each prepaid gift card has a balance of $1 or more, you can add it to your account to get Amazon credits. Note that this process only works for credit card gift cards. It will not work on brand or store-specific gift cards.
When you’re ready, follow these instructions for each card:
- Obtain the balance for each card you’d like to redeem for Amazon credits.
- Sign into your Amazon account.
- Click this listing for Amazon Reload.
- The amount you want to reload will be the exact balance of your prepaid gift card. Enter this amount and add the reload to your cart.
- Go to the checkout.
- For your payment method, select “Add a new card” and enter your prepaid gift card information. (Note, you will need to enter a name for the gift card, and even though it won’t have one, I always just enter my name and it goes through fine.)
- Pay for the reload with your prepaid gift card.
- That’s it! You’ll now have available Amazon credits in the exact amount of your Visa gift card balance!
