Amazon will literally pay you to shop this Prime Day. No, really.
For the second year in a row, the retail giant is giving customers the opportunity to earn free credits they can redeem during its annual sitewide sale (which is happening on July 11 and 12). Only one offer was still live at the time of writing, but the good news is that it's open to trial users of Prime as well as paid members — no need to commit to a subscription for eligibility.
Here's how you can take advantage of the offer, which is live through Monday, July 10 at 11:59 p.m. PT:
- 2 minutes
- A computer or smartphone
Step 1: Sign into (or sign up for) an Amazon Prime account via Amazon.com/prime or through the Amazon Shopping app.
Again, a paid or trial membership works.
Step 2: Visit the offer landing page.
You can hunt it down on Amazon's Prime Day event page or just click this link.
Step 3: Add at least $50 worth of Amazon e-gift cards to your cart.
Any design will do.
Step 4: Complete your order to receive a $5 credit.
You'll get an email confirming that the credit has been automatically added to your account right after you hit "Place your order." You can redeem it anytime through Friday, August 25, in case nothing catches your eye on Prime Day.
