We never know what to give to a relative or friend for the Christmas holidays or for any special occasion "> Best gift ideas with cards and vouchers to spend on online services 1) How Amazon gift certificates work
Amazon vouchers allow you to top up your Amazon balance for yourself and other users of the site.
The Amazon balance is a real credit that you can use to make any purchase on the famous e-commerce site without having to use the default payment method.
For example, if we have a € 100 Amazon balance, we can purchase any item without making money from the credit card or prepaid card entered as a payment method (they will still be available, they will not be removed from the system!).
For expensive purchases it is possible to use both the balance and pay the remaining difference with the payment method, so as to save a lot of money.
Amazon vouchers therefore allow you to top up your Amazon balance, so you can make any type of purchase.
Amazon vouchers are also offered for refunds made in case of problems (only from assistance) and they all last 10 years from the moment of issue (those who receive a Amazon voucher as a gift have 10 years to use the sum).
2) How to give an Amazon voucher
Now that we know all about Amazon gift vouchers, let's see how to buy and gift them.
Amazon offers a page dedicated exclusively to vouchers, reachable here -> Amazon Gift Certificates .
The screen offers all types of gift certificates that Amazon supports.
- Digital vouchers : these vouchers are the simplest and can be easily shared via email, just choose the amount to give, fill in the virtual ticket and enter the recipient's email.
In addition to the simple card, you can shoot a greeting video, add a personalized photo or make a bookmark (which can also be used after redeeming the code).
The voucher sent will contain a code to redeem the Amazon voucher.
- To print : we can also get coupons to print with our printer, so as to provide a paper gift.
The voucher will contain your personalized message and a code to redeem the Amazon voucher.
- On a greeting card : make your voucher special by having your Amazon-signed greeting card sent out on a business day.
Customizable graphics for any type of event and personalized message, to which is added the code to redeem the Amazon voucher.
- In a box : the most elegant and complete version, the message or the greeting card will be kept in a colored box, complete with a bow.
Possibility to customize the ticket and the box, as well as the message to be inserted inside.
Also in this case there will be a code to redeem the Amazon voucher.
Once the style and method with which we want to give the voucher has been chosen, it will be sufficient to choose the sum to be given and enter the required information, including any customizations.
For example, if you want to give the box to contain the gift voucher, you can choose a multitude of themes and shapes, even for specific holidays (for example, Christmas-themed boxes or boxes for birthdays or special events).
On the coupon page all the various forms and customizations of the same are available, while under the Denomination field it is possible to choose the sum to be given inside the Amazon voucher.
The prices of the vouchers vary according to the type chosen: it is possible to give sums of money from € 0.15 to € 5, 000 (for paper vouchers) .
If you choose digital vouchers, you can send them by email, so they will be immediately available (we can also send them to our email and send the gift at the right time).
If, on the other hand, paper vouchers or caskets are chosen, they will be sent to the address assigned within 1 working day (they use Poste Italiane as a fast shipping method).
In Amazon gift vouchers sent by post, we can find the voucher code by scratching the silver part on the back or inside.
3) How to redeem an Amazon voucher
We received an Amazon voucher as a gift but we don't know how to redeem it "> Amazon Balance.
Once you have entered your login credentials, click on the left side on the item Add a Gift Certificate or a code to top up your account .
We will see a new window open with a text field; type the code that we got from the gift voucher, then click on Verify and finally on Add to my account .
We will see the balance update to the value of the voucher that we redeemed; now we can use this figure to make any type of purchase on Amazon.
If, on the other hand, the Amazon voucher was provided to us by assistance (as a refund for a returned item or as partial compensation) it will be automatically added to our Amazon balance, without having to type anything!
Just check the Amazon balance to verify the correct loading of the Amazon voucher provided as a refund.
