Looking for Amazon Prime Day gift cards? Instead of buying something you may (or may not) need with Prime Day deals on TVs, laptops, wearables, and more, you can buy an Amazon gift card now and use it later

The best deal on Amazon Prime Day gift cards is a $10 account credit for a $40 gift card In other words, for the price of $40 you get $50 Amazon Cash With Black Friday fast approaching, you might appreciate the extra $10 to secure your holiday gift

With a $40 or more Amazoncom gift card in your cart, enter code GC20PRIME at checkout to get a $10 promotional credit applied to your account

According to Amazon, the credit will appear within two days after the gift card purchase is completed or, for physical gift cards, after shipping This means that the credit cannot be used on Prime Day, which ends on October 14, but can be used for future purchases

Unfortunately, the promotion has a $10 promotional credit cap per Prime account, so purchasing more gift cards will not increase the credit On the bright side, if the Prime Day deals under $10 that we saw are any indication of what to expect during the Black Friday/Cyber Monday season, this credit will certainly help
