We love the fact that Amazon's site is always packed full of so many terrific deals, but it's also fairly obvious that 99.99% of them only appeal to certain shoppers. For example, AirPods Pro are on sale right now for just $197 instead of $249, and that's the lowest price of 2021 so far on Amazon. TP-Link's insanely popular new Kasa mini smart plugs are on sale for under $5.50 each, and you can also pick up one of the best-selling nonstick frying pans we've ever seen for only $13.99 right now. Those are both the lowest prices of all time!
No one will question how good those deals are, but they'll only appeal to some people who might be on the lookout for products in those particular categories. Once in a while, however, a deal comes along that anyone and everyone should take advantage of. Needless to say, there's no better example of that than a deal that gets you some free money from Amazon! And now, you have not one but two opportunities to score some free money ahead of Prime Day 2021 on June 21 and June 22.

The nation's top online retailer is running a new gift card promotion this summer and you would have to be out of your mind to pass it up as long as this promo is available to you. All you really need to know is that if you're eligible, you can score yourself a $15 Amazon credit on your account just for buying a $50 Amazon gift card and using a special coupon code at checkout.
That's it!
To quickly summarize this for everyone out there, all you need to do spend $50 to buy a gift card that you just send to yourself since you're going to spend that money with Amazon anyway... and you get an extra $15. Anyone would have to be crazy to pass this up!
There are really only a few things you need to know about this awesome promo.
Just head over to Amazon's website and add a $50 Amazon gift card to your cart. If you want, you can send it to someone else as a gift — don't forget that Father's Day 2021 is coming up fast — but you can also make yourself the recipient so the funds just end up being added back to your own Amazon account. As we noted earlier, you know you'll be spending $50 at Amazon anyway, so why not just load that money into your Amazon account now? Then, when you check out, be sure to use the coupon code GIFTCARD2021.
Your new $50 Amazon gift card will be emailed to you or your recipient (or to yourself) right away, and then you'll see a $15 credit added to your Amazon account within a few days. With similar offers like this in the past, the promotional credit ends up hitting your account either the same day or the next day. The last time we used an Amazon gift card promo ourselves, we saw our credit appear the very same day.
It's important to note that there's no guesswork involved with figuring out if this promotion will work for you because you can find out before you pay. No, of course you shouldn't just buy a gift card and then cross your fingers in hopes that the promo credit appears on your account.
Here's how it works: After you enter the promo code while you're checking out, you should see the following message near the top of the page:
If you don't see that message, you're not eligible for the promotion so you can just delete the gift card from your shopping cart and move along. Wondering why this promo wouldn't work for you? Well, that's the bad news and it leads us to the only caveat. That's right... you knew there had to be a catch.
Amazon's new gift card promotion is only available to people who have never purchased Amazon gift cards before from the Amazon site before, so you're ineligible if you've ever ordered one in the past. If you only bought Amazon gift cards from a local retail shop though, you don't have to worry about it. And don't forget, if there's more than one person in your household, you can try scoring this promo with their account instead. Heck, you should all be cashing in anyway!
There's also an even easier way to see if you're eligible: just visit the promo page on Amazon's site. If you see a message that says "unfortunately, you are not eligible for this offer," it means you've purchased an Amazon gift card at some point in the past so you can't take advantage of this deal. Plenty of people out there haven't ever bought Amazon gift cards before though, so this is an awesome way to get some free cash from Amazon. Buy yourself a $50 Amazon gift card and you'll end up with $65.
Why would anyone pass that up?!
There are a bunch of terms and conditions on Amazon's site, but this is the key bit that you'll want to make note of:

Then, on top of that, there's another special promotion that's about to start on June 7 and it's tied specifically to Prime Day.
Amazon is doing its best to promote all the small businesses that sell on its site, so there's a big promo that gives you a free Amazon credit for "shopping small." Starting on June 7 and running up to June 20 just before Prime Day begins, you can get a $10 Amazon credit when you spend at least $10 with any of 300,000 participating small businesses. More details about the promotion will appear on Amazon's Support Small page when it goes live on June 7.
