These days, you can't mention or even think about online shopping - or any shopping in general, really - without Amazon coming up.
What started out of a garage in Bellevue, Washington in 1994 has grown to become an unfathomably large technological and economic entity known the world over. Its founder, Jeff Bezos, is high on the list of the world's wealthiest people with a net worth of roughly $170 billion. Not bad for something that started out of a garage!
As of 2023, Amazon has expanded far past being just an online store. It now has subscriptions and services that cover all kinds of different industries, and the key to the world of Amazon is one simple thing: Amazon gift cards. They're the easiest way to buy things across the entire Amazon ecosystem, and with Gameflip - they can also be the cheapest. Let's take a look at all of the things that make Amazon gift cards awesome, and you can get yours at a significant discount from Gameflip.
Sell & Payout
Who Sells Amazon Gift Cards?

Amazon gift cards can be purchased both in physical stores and online. As one of the biggest shopping entities in the world, it benefits them to have their gift cards in as many stores as possible.
However, if you buy an Amazon gift card from most places, you're probably going to be spending full price or maybe even a markup. Sales on these particular gift cards are extremely rare - at least for most places.
When you shop at Gameflip, you'll never have to pay full price. The Gameflip marketplace has huge discounts on gift cards for most major retailers year-round, helping you save money when most places aren't.
However, if you also want to take advantage of the infrequent Amazon gift card sales in other major stores, we can help there as well! All you need to do is pick up discounted gift cards from the selection we host on Gameflip, which includes:
We want to give the Gameflip community as many options as possible when it comes to buying the things they need and want, even if it doesn't come directly from our well-stocked digital marketplace. Offering gift cards for other stores - both digital and physical - is how we accomplish that.
What Can Amazon Gift Cards Be Used For?

When you have Amazon gift cards in your possession, the number of things you can use them for is almost staggering.
Amazon is so large that it's sometimes easy to forget all of the things they offer! Here are all the things you can expect to take advantage of with Amazon gift cards.
Amazon Store

This is probably going to be the first and most obvious place you'll spend your Amazon gift cards, and for good reason.
You can find just about anything on the Amazon Store, whether it's something you want, something you need, or something you absolutely don't need. Tools, TVs, furniture, books, video games, vitamins, PC components, food, drinks, and so much more. There's a reason people give out Amazon gift cards on Christmas - they're essentially "buy whatever you want" tickets.
Amazon Electronics

Amazon broke into the electronics industry with their Kindle e-reader way back in 2007, and they have steadily increased their offerings with their Fire line of devices. Right now, they have:
Kindle E-Readers - The digital book devices that started it all. Kindle now comes in a variety of devices that range from ultra-affordable to ultra-premium.
Fire Tablets - Amazon's primary content-consumption devices. None of them are as high-tech or as performant (or as expensive) as iPads, but they get the job done for the most part. They come in a variety of sizes and price points, including packages aimed at kids.
Fire TV - Internet-connected TV dongles that turn an old TV into a smart TV. Can be connected to a wide variety of services including Netflix, Hulu, Paramount+, and others including Amazon's own services.
Echo & Alexa - Amazon's smart speakers. They connect users to the vast majority of Amazon's services with just their voice. You can even place orders from the Amazon Store just by speaking to it!
It's important to remember that all of these devices are made by Amazon, and they are also separate from the other hundreds or thousands of electronics you can get from other sellers on the marketplace - all of which can be purchased with Amazon gift cards.
Amazon Digital Content

You can use your gift card balance at Amazon to buy all kinds of digital content that they host, including movies, TV, music, and even digital books and audiobooks through the Kindle Store.
Amazon Prime

A recent change to Amazon's policies now allows users to subscribe to Amazon's premiere service - Amazon Prime - with Amazon gift cards. This wasn't allowed before, and it's still not possible to use Amazon gift cards to pay for certain subscriptions, like Amazon Music. Amazon Prime gives subscribers free one-day, two-day, and even same-day delivery on select items in select markets, free Grubhub+, and 2-hour grocery delivery where available.
That's not all, Prime subscribers get full access to A TON of extra services:
Prime Video - Thousands of hours of Amazon Original content in addition to current and classic TV and movies.
Prime Video Channels - Extra services like STARZ, Paramount+, and NBA League Pass that can be added to your Prime subscription for varying additional costs (which can also be paid for with an Amazon card gift).
Amazon Music - Shuffle play access to Amazon's staggering catalog of music. Amazon Music Unlimited can be added on for $9.99 per month to get complete control over what you listen to, but that can't be paid for with Amazon gift cards.
Prime Gaming - Prime subscribers get a selection of free games every month as well as Twitch and general gaming benefits.
Amazon Photos - Unlimited storage for full-resolution photos and 5GB of video storage through Amazon Photos, and the ability to easily order prints and use your stored content to customize Echo Show and FireTV.
Amazon Kids+ - Prime members get a 40% discount on a service that offers unlimited access to a wealth of kid-friendly content including movies, books, and educational apps and games.
Medical Care and Prescription Benefits - Prime members get access to a variety of affordable medical options like RxPass, One Medical, and savings on prescriptions and their delivery. These medical options are not compatible with Amazon gift card payments.
Prime Reading - A vast selection of eBooks, comics, magazines, and audiobooks that can be accessed with your Prime subscription.
Whole Foods - Exclusive discounts on certain items in Whole Foods stores and online.
As you can see, you can do way more with your Amazon gift cards than just buy random things from the Amazon Store.
