I’m not one to go wild for Amazon Prime Day (I don’t recall buying anything the last few years) but they do offer a lot of free Amazon promotional credits when you meet certain conditions.
For 2024, Amazon Prime Day is July 16th and 17th.
To participate, you will need to be an Amazon Prime member. They have a 30-day trial so you can get it just for Prime Day and then cancel (otherwise, it’s $14.99 per month). If you are a student, Amazon Prime Student has a 6-month trial.
Free Amazon Credit Offers
- 20% off select Gift Cards – Chipotle, Instacart, Best Buy, Under Armour, Cinemark, and many others
- $200 Amazon Gift Card instantly on approval for Amazon Visa card ($50 for non-Prime members)
- $10 Amazon Gift Card with $25+ Grubhub order, promo code GRUBPRIME, expires 7/15.
- Kindle Unlimited 3 month trial (normally 1 month)
- Amazon Music Unlimited 5 months free (normally just 1 month)
- Audible Premium Plus – 3 months free (normally just 2 months)
- Whole Foods & Amazon Fresh Grocery Delivery 90 day free trial – This gets you unlimited free delivery orders on $35+ orders
Credits for linking certain credit cards to your account:
- $15 credit if you add your American Express Card to your Amazon account with promotion code AMEXPD15OFF. (you might not see this offer if you already have an AMEX linked)
- $15 credit if you add your Citi Card to your Amazon account with promotion code 24CITIPD. (you might not see this offer if you already have a Citi Card linked)
- $20 credit if you add your Discover Card to your Amazon account with promotion code 24DISCOPD. (you might not see this offer if you already have a Discover Card linked)
Last year, there were a lot of promotions and we’re hoping we see again:
- $3 credit after spending $10 through Amazon Go
- $6 credit for Prime Video after spending $30
- $20 credit to upload photos to Amazon Photos
- Credits for purchases at Whole Foods
- Credits for purchases of Amazon.com gift cards
- Credits for using Amazon Reload
We’ll see what offers they push starting the 16th and will update this post as we see them.
