I’m going to teach you how to use American Express gift card in amazon. It’s a very quick and easy process, so make sure to follow along. We also made this post available in video for easy understanding.

Using an Amex gift card on Amazon is as simple as using any other credit or debit card that you might have. There’s literally no difference, even though a lot of our followers have been sending various requests in this regard.

We purposely created this article to answer the question of using an Amex gift card for Amazon shopping. Let’s get started.

How to use American Express gift card in Amazon

There are two easy methods. You can either add a card as payment method in your settings or do so during checkout. Any of both will work perfectly well.

  • Add the card as a payment method.

You can do this process by going over to your account page inside of the Amazon website or the mobile app, and then visiting your payments page, where you can manage all the payment methods currently attributed to your Amazon account.

In our video, we have the description through a computer in favor of those that will be using PCs for these procedures, so here, let’s describe the process from mobile.

When you login to your Amazon account and click on the profile icon, here’s what you should do next.

Add a payment method.

Finally, you just have to enter your Amex Card details in this function.

Now that you’re done adding cards through this method, let’s proceed to using the checkout method.

  • Add a card as a payment method during checkout.

We are not discussing much, as this is not very relevant, having stated the above. Adding your card during checkout simply means choosing a product you want to order and continue the shopping process until it asks for your payment method. That’s when you can select and add your card details.

Regardless of which option you pick, All that you have to do is select add a payment method, select credit or debit card, and then include the details about the American Express gift card.

For the most part, you won’t have to activate the American Express card beforehand, but I would still highly recommend that you call the number on the back of the card or visit the website at the back of the card.

And this will allow you to not only check the balance, but also activate the card, manage a zip code if necessary, and just ensure that everything is properly set up. The activation process will be further discussed in this article.

On this option, after you include the shipping address, you will be able to add a credit or debit card. And just like your account management page, you will have to include the number, the name of the card, the expiration date, and the security code.

As long as you add your card by using the necessary details on your account page, it is going to work properly. You don’t even have to go through the additional process of signing into your American Express account.

Make sure that you have enough balance on the card before finishing this order. And if the balance is enough and you include valid details about the card, it will definitely go through without any issues.
