How to find your Amazon gift card number.

  • There are no instructions on the packet the gift card comes in. It's all quite mysterious and a little nerve wracking to me. There are plenty of numbers on the packet, but you have to open it up to find the card. The numbers you want are on the card.
    First, rip the top off the packet. Scissors might help as long as you don't cut up the card inside.
    Remove the card. Not so easy to do!
    Peal away the strip covering the gift card numbers.
    Go to Amazon and Your Account. Look for Gift Cards. You can redeem there.
    Next year, cash please!

    THANK YOU!!! My mom got a $100 amazon gift card for grandma this year. And couldn't figure out how to open and use the dang thing! She ended up just making the purchase on her credit card for grandma. But after she got home, with what she thought was a useless card, she did some searching and found your video! Now we got it open and can use it. She is very happy she DIDN'T end up wasting / losing $100! And, since you helped so much (and are pretty much the only person on the internet who bothered telling us how to do it) I just had to get on my account and come leave you a thank you on here. Now we know how to use these for the future, AND we didn't lose / waste a $100 gift card! THANK YOU so much!!

    Just spent an hour echatting with a rep from Amazon. The rep never told me to simply tear open the holder card and look inside. He/she kept telling me the number I was reading was not an Amazon number. Tempers were about to flare so I decided to check out TH-cam. As soon as I saw you start to peal off the strip to expose the real number I stopped the video and in a couple of minutes I had activated the darn thing. Thanks. Now I'll have to back and watch the rest of your show. ;-)

    SON OF A GUN!! After fighting with Amazon by phone and online, after reading another video with huge numbers of questions and answers--AFTER months of trying to figure it out, I found your directions. And SURE enough there was a card inside with the scratch off!! I've had the card for 6 months and could not figure it out. And all this time there it was. So simple, and no one knew how to find the right number or where it was, not AMAZON, not the other expert and his correspondents. Thanks, $25 worth of thanks! Phillip Hickman

    THANK YOU SO MUCH.. I too received a gift card and didn't know what number Amazon wanted. I looked at video after video and they were 100% crap. A bunch of sappy music, no narration and NO answers to what I was looking for. ALL of those sites got a big fat thumbs down from me.
    I guess Amazon and others hope people will get pissed and toss the cards.
    In a few minutes you explained exactly what I needed to know.
    Again THANK YOU !! I am glad there are some sites on youtube where a Human and not stupid sappy music answer questions..

    My man you are an actual life saver. I'm in my 30s and very tech savvy and could not figure this out either for the life of me, since there's absolutely ZERO instructions or indication of any kind on the gift card "package" (you wouldn't know it's just a package that contains the card!). I thought someone had number generated my card code already and used it in between me buying the card and getting home and was ready to call customer service haha.
    Thanks a lot for this video, and as others have said WHY are you the only one who has this tutorial??? I've searched high and low, and finally came upon yours after almost giving up. Not even the clerk who sold me the thing and said her kids used the cards knew it needed to be ripped open. You sir deserve all of the likes and subs on all of the youtubes! Certainly have mine, solely for this video alone. Cheers

    To be clear, the reason they hid the code inside the packaging is because thieves could easily take pics of the code if it was visible, then keep checking it until it gets purchased, then steal your money.
    Great tutorial on what to do to get your code!

    • @richdavis4007
