How to Check Your Amazon Gift Card Balance in Just a Few Steps
If you’ve recently received an Amazon gift card or have been using one for your online shopping, it’s important to keep track of your balance. Knowing how much credit you have can help you make informed purchasing decisions and ensure you get the most out of your gift card. In this article, we’ll guide you through the simple steps to check your Amazon gift card balance.
Step 1: Sign into Your Amazon Account
The first step to checking your gift card balance is logging into your Amazon account. If you don’t already have an account, you’ll need to create one. Simply go to the Amazon website and click on ‘Sign In’ located at the top right corner of the homepage. Enter your email or mobile number and password. If you’ve forgotten your password, there’s an option available to reset it.
Step 2: Navigate to Your Account Settings
Once you’re signed in, hover over ‘Accounts & Lists’ at the top right corner of the page—this will open a dropdown menu. From this menu, click on ‘Your Account.’ This will take you to a new page where various options related to your account are listed.
Step 3: Find Your Gift Card Balance
On the ‘Your Account’ page, look for a section labeled ‘Gift cards.’ Click on this option, and it will direct you to a new page where you’ll see details about any active gift cards linked with your account. Here, prominently displayed is your current gift card balance along with information about any recent transactions involving that balance.
Step 4: Check Through Mobile App (Optional)
If you prefer using mobile devices, checking your Amazon gift card balance is also easy through their app. Download and open the Amazon app on your smartphone or tablet and sign in as usual. Tap on the three horizontal lines (the menu icon) in the lower right corner for iOS or upper left for Android devices. Scroll down until you find ‘Your Account,’ then select ‘Your Balance’ under ‘Gift Cards’ where you’ll see both current balances and transaction history.
Step 5: Keep Track of Your Spending
After checking how much is left on your gift card, it’s useful to keep track of how you’re spending that money as well as any future gifts that may come in handy. Consider keeping notes or using apps that help manage finances if you’re planning several purchases with different balances.
Checking your Amazon gift card balance is quick and straightforward with just a few simple steps. Whether via desktop or mobile app, staying updated helps enhance your shopping experience on Amazon by ensuring you’re informed about what purchases are possible within budget constraints.
