What is Amazon Pay?
Gift cards looks like credit cards, with a barcode or magnetic strip. They do not necessarily have name on them, so they can be given to anyone. Instead of a name, they have a unique code so they can be recognized when used. Gift cards have barcodes on a different place on the card than credit cards do, so they cannot be used at ATM machines.

Amazon Pay is a service that lets you use the payment methods already associated with your Amazon account to make payments for goods, services, and donations on third-party websites, in apps, and using Alexa. To make a payment, you can use any of the payment methods on file in your Amazon account.
How do I sign up?
If you already have an account with Amazon, you only have to accept Amazon's Conditions of Use and Privacy Notice when signing in on a non-Amazon site that accepts Amazon Pay. There is no separate registration process.
Am I protected when I use Amazon Pay?
If there are ever unauthorized Amazon Pay charges against your payment method, you can dispute the charge with us. You must notify us as quickly as possible, and no later than 13 months after the date of the transaction. Unless you have acted fraudulently or with negligence, you may not be held responsible for the charge. When you use Amazon Pay for qualified purchases on third-party websites, the condition of the item that you buy and its timely delivery may be guaranteed under the Amazon A-to-z Guarantee for Buyers. If you submit payment for a product or service and you do not receive the item or it is materially different than advertised by the merchant, you can dispute the transaction and request reimbursement. For more information, see the Buyer Dispute Program.
To learn more about filing a dispute for Amazon Pay transactions, see Disputing transactions.
Is my payment information shared with merchants?
We don't share your full credit card, debit card, or bank account number with merchants or charitable organizations who accept Amazon Pay. We share with the merchant the payment information that is required to complete and support your transaction, which may include the last four digits of your card number and the card type.
What payment methods can be used with Amazon Pay?
Any of the payment methods available in your Amazon account can be used with Amazon Pay. Note that Amazon.com gift cards entered into your Amazon account cannot be used when making purchases with Amazon Pay on third-party websites.
What does it cost me to use Amazon Pay?
It costs you nothing. Using Amazon Pay adds no fees to your transaction with the merchant. Your purchase incurs no transaction fee, no membership fee, no currency conversion fee, no foreign transaction fee, and no other fees. Your card issuer, however, may add a foreign transaction fee if your card was issued in a country different from the merchant's, as well as any other fees described in the terms and conditions for your card.
How do I change my account information?
You can manage most aspects of your Amazon account for Amazon Pay on Amazon.com. Go to Amazon.com, sign in, and then click Your Account. Other changes must be made on the Amazon Pay website.
For details about the information that can be changed and where to change it, see Making changes to your Amazon account information for Amazon Pay.
How do I make a payment?
When you see that Amazon Pay is an accepted payment method for a product or service that you want to purchase, just click the Amazon Pay logo or button, enter your Amazon.com email address and password, and then choose your payment method. Some charitable organizations also take donations via Alexa. For more information about making payments using Amazon Pay, see Using Amazon Pay.
How can I find a payment that I made using Amazon Pay on my credit card statement?
Payments that you make using Amazon Pay appear on your credit card statement like this:
AMZ*[Seller Name] amzn.com/pmts
How can I donate with Alexa and Amazon Pay?
You can use Amazon Pay with your Alexa device to donate to an enabled charitable organization. You can say, 'Alexa, I want to make a donation' or 'Alexa, I want to donate to [charity name].” For tips on preventing unintended donations, see Manage Voice Purchasing Settings.
What do I need to do before I can donate with Alexa?
To donate with Alexa you must have a valid payment method in your Amazon account, with voice purchasing enabled.
How can I avoid unintended donations?
Use the Alexa app to set up your 4-digit voice confirmation code to prevent unintended donations or purchases. For details, see Manage Voice Purchasing Settings.
How secure is my information when I donate with Alexa?
When you make a donation, Amazon Pay shares your name, address, and email address with the charitable organization. We don't share your full credit card, debit card, or bank account number with the charity, so you can donate with peace of mind.
Where can I see a record of my purchases and donations?
You will receive an email confirmation for each purchase and donation. You can review a history of all your donations and other Amazon Pay transactions at pay.amazon.com. Charitable organizations that you donate to will also provide email receipts for your donations.
How do I find my donation receipt for use as an income tax deduction?
The charitable organization that you donated to is responsible for giving you the proper tax document. If you haven't received a receipt that is valid for your income tax reporting purposes, contact them directly.
Can I ship my order to an Amazon Locker?
No, only purchases made directly on the Amazon.com website may ship to an Amazon Locker. Please don't add the address of an Amazon Locker as a shipping address for your Amazon Pay purchases. Orders that are paid for using Amazon Pay cannot be delivered to an Amazon Locker.
I think I just received a phishing email. What do I do?
If you receive a phishing email message, we ask that you report it to us as quickly as possible through the contact us link available on our website. For information about identifying and reporting phishing emails, see Internet scams and phishing.
I'm having a problem with my account or with trying to complete a purchase using my account. What do I do?
We are sorry you are having a problem with Amazon Pay. Here are some things you can try:
- Verify that you are entering the email address and password that are associated with your Amazon.com account correctly when you are trying to complete a purchase.
- If you can enter your account email address and password, but you cannot complete your purchase, check that your payment method is set up correctly. You can do so by following the steps listed in Making changes to your Amazon account information for Amazon Pay.
- If your payment method is set up correctly, check that you have updated your browser's settings to allow third-party cookies. If the option is turned on and you still cannot complete your purchase, get in touch with us by using the contact us form on the Amazon Pay website.

How do you trade or sell your Amazon gift cards for cash?
Here is a scenario:
Let’s say somebody bought you a generous $500 Amazon gift card.
You are beside yourself.
You thank them a thousand times and can’t wait to use the card.

The only problem is that you don’t actually need anything that Amazon sells (which is everything by the way). Let’s just say you would rather have that $500 in cash because you have to pay your rent or some other bill.
Amazon won’t (obviously) exchange the card for you with cash. And if you were to buy something and then return it, they could only credit your account, which gets you nowhere.
You can’t ask your friend (or whoever that someone was that gave you the Amazon gift card) to take the card back and give you cash instead.
So what can you do?
What’s the Best Way to Exchange Amazon Gift Cards for Cash?
Well, I don’t think there is one “best’ way.
It all depends on your situation, how much the GC is worth, how fast you need the cash, etc.
That said, there are a few ways you can get cash for your unwanted Amazon GC or any other kind of gift card for that matter.
Here are a few options:
1. Use Reddit
Reddit actually has a dedicated subreddit for gift card exchanges where you can trade unwanted gift cards for cash (PayPal mainly) or other gift cards.
If you are not a member of Reddit yet, you’ll need an account first. It’s free.
Then simply visit /r/giftcardexchange, create a post with some details about your card, its worth, how much you want for it, etc. and wait for other redditors to respond.
You can also use a subreddit called /r/barter.
On this subreddit people normally barter for tangible goods rather than gift cards and gift certificate codes. But you may be able to find someone who will be willing to pay cash for your Amazon gift card.
2. Buy Stuff for Friends/family and Get Cash in Exchange
Ask your other friends or family members if they need stuff from Amazon. If they do, buy it for them and have them give you the equivalent amount in cash.
And if you don’t have a friend or family member who needs $500 worth of stuff, perhaps you could find a few people who may each need $50-$100 worth of stuff.

3. Sell a $500 Amazon Gift Card for $520 on eBay!
Not only you can sell your Amazon GC, but apparently you can sell it for more than its face value!
I was baffled when I saw people buying a $50 Amazon GC for $57,99.
So I looked into it (here is a great discussion about it on Amazon Community Forum,) and from what I have gathered there may be a few reasons for why people pay more than the face value.
One theory is that people from other countries buy them and take advantage of the currency conversion somehow. So for them it actually is a win.
Another one is that the buyers are using cashback sites to shop on eBay and sometimes the cashback sites have promotions where they can earn way more cashback than the few extra dollars they paid for the GC.
And if you are not sure about that, you can always sell the GC for its face value or a few dollars lower. I looked on eBay and a lot of gift cards, including Amazon’s, do sell for 100% face value or near it.
4. Sell It on Craigslist
You may have to sell it for a little less than its value, but that’s probably one of the fastest ways to get cash in your hand.
You could sell a $500 Amazon gift card for $450 or $430 perhaps.
If not, and if you don’t mind, lower the asking price.
5. Ask Amazon for Cash
I know this sounds like a crazy idea, but Amazon has fantastic customer support and they are famous for it. You just may get lucky.
It won’t really cost you but a few minutes of your time to contact Amazon support and ask them. The worst that happens is that they will say no.
6. Sell on Gift Card Reseller Sites
This is another option. It’s not the fastest one, nor will it get you the most cash, but it works.
Here are a few legit sites you can try:
- Card Cash (Previously Plastic Jungle)
7. Sell it on Raise
This is an app that works similarly to websites like CardPool.
You list your GC for a little less than its face value and people can buy it from you.
You can install the Raise app for Android and iOS devices via these links:
- iTunes App Store (for iPhone)
- Google Play App Store (for Android)
8. Use CoinStar
I wrote about this in my “Exchange Gift Cards for Cash Instantly” post.
Coinstar has kiosks all over the country where you can get cash for electronics as well as gift cards.
Simply find a kiosk using their kiosk location finder, take your Amazon GC and insert it into the machine. See how much it pays for it, and if you accept it, get your cash instantly.
Obviously, this won’t work with Amazon gift certificates (the ones you get the code for online). You have to have an actual physical gift card to insert into the CoinStar machine.
9. Buy Grocery & Pay Yourself in Cash
Most of us buy groceries a few times a week. But you can buy some of that stuff on Amazon now.
If you need the cash in a week or so, instead of buying your grocery from the store next week and paying with cash from your next paycheck, buy the grocery on Amazon now with the card and then pay yourself the equivalent amount in cash when you get your paycheck.

Alternative Options
Here are a few other options for cases where you don’t need cash, but you also don’t want the gift card.
10. Use Purse
This site was made exclusively for the purpose of allowing people to buy and sell Amazon gift cards for Bitcoin.
Bitcoin owners create a wish list of items they want from Amazon, then people with unwanted gift cards purchase their order in exchange for bitcoin.
It is actually a very safe program. They use escrow to make sure both you and the buyer get your intended items. You get your bitcoin(s) and the buyer gets his/her amazon products.
11. Shop with Amazon Payments
If what you need is not cash but another item that is not sold on Amazon.com, you can actually use your gift card balance to shop on other sites that accept Amazon Payments.
You can see a list of merchants that accept Amazon payments here.
12. Sell Amazon Gift Card for Bitcoin
If you’re a fan of bitcoin, beside Purse, there are also other sites that let you trade/sell all kinds of gift cards, including Amazon gift certificates, for bitcoin.
Here are a few sites you can try:
Now if you don’t really want Bitcoin, there are much faster and easier ways you can sell your Bitcoin for cash. So that’s another option.
