How To Use American Express Gift Card On Amazon

Have you ever tried using American Express aka Amex Gift Cards on Amazon? If you were holding yourself back thinking it’s a headache then we won’t tell you otherwise, because it is a headache. But once you follow the steps that we dictate, then you could possibly make use of the Amex Gift Card in your possession.

You can’t simply go and directly register the card, instead, there is a format to do things and you’re supposed to follow that. Even after completing the first step, you will still have several other formalities to finish. However, you are considered lucky if you are a recipient of an Amex Gift Card.

The only issue is that you can split your amazon bill into more than 1 payment method. That is, if you get a bill of $100 after purchase, then either you shall make the complete payment via your American Express Gift Card or you can choose any other method. There is no in-between. You can’t split the amount in case your Amex Card balance is insufficient. Either this or that. 

So, without making any delay, let us learn more about using American Express Gift Cards on Amazon. 

How Does American Express Gift Cards Work?

You can either use American Express Gift Cards by yourself or you can give them to anyone you want. Whoever is using it, should complete certain procedures before reaping its benefits.  But one thing that you should remember is that the minimum balance on your Amex Gift Card is $25 and the maximum is $3,000. 

These gift cards can be bought from stores like Walmart or from Amex or affiliated stores. You can either download a digital form of your card or you can get a physical Amex gift card that you can easily redeem anywhere including certain online stores. 

But using an Amex Gift Card is not as simple as we just mentioned. If you want to use it, then you first have to register the card, which will activate it instantly.

For registration, you must call their customer care service who will ask about your card number, security code (the three-digit number given on the backside of the card), address as well as Card Identification Code.

There you go! After registration, your Amex card would become ready to use and where else would you stop rather than on Amazon to begin your spending spree? But you should always keep in mind to spend the entire amount.

If not, the remaining amount which will obviously be a negligible sum will be left behind in the account with no proper use. So, it is always better not to leave anything on the card after the purchase. 

Once the registration is completed, Amex will replace the gift card when it is lost. So you need not worry, instead, you can’t hurry your registration process. 

How To Add Your American Express Gift Card As The Payment Method On Amazon?

Once the registration is completed, you should add your Amex card on Amazon, so that you can make use of the gift card balance to purchase a variety of products from there. 

Now, to add the American Express Gift Card as a payment method, you are supposed to follow a number of steps including;

  1. Sign in or log in to your existing Amazon account 
  2. Click the “Your Account” option 
  3. Hit on “Your Payments”
  4. Go to “Add a payment method”
  5. Add your American Express Gift Card as a credit or debit card, instead of a gift card
  6. Check your Amex Gift Card Balance 

After finishing the entire procedure, you can use your Amex Gift Card at the checkout. 

What Are The Issues Faced While Adding Your Amex Gift Card On Amazon?

  1. If your American Express Card is not properly registered, then you will not be able to add it to Amazon. To correct the error, you will have to contact the service line and verify. 
  2. When the balance remaining on your Amex Card is insufficient to purchase the Amazon gift card, then there is a possibility that you might run into an issue. For example, if your American Express Gift Card balance is $50 and your purchase amount is $49.9, still you will not be able to complete the payment. 
  3. During the registration process, you must have provided an address and it should match the billing address provided on Amazon. If not, you will fail to load the Amex card as a payment method.

Once you find the issue, you should immediately correct it so that you can enjoy the card benefits as soon as possible.

When you have an Amex Gift Card, you will automatically be encouraged to purchase more. It is one of the best opportunities to uplift your buying habit and also to free your carts.

If you are an American Express Gift Card holder, then make sure to register soon so that you can go on a spending spree. These speed bumps are literally nothing when compared to the benefits the card offers.
