How to add two payment methods on amazon

If you prefer to pay through gift cards, Amazon has an option through Amazon Reload. You can set a certain amount of money to be added to the card monthly, weekly, biweekly, or daily. This could be a good way to set money aside throughout the year for Christmas or birthday gifts.

  • Select the payment amount.
  • Choose the preferred delivery method (text or email).

Amazon gift cards don’t have a fee and they never expire. In the past, Amazon has offered incentives for gift card purchases, such as additional credit or a percentage boost to your purchase balance. Watch out for these special promotions by setting a Deal Alert so you are notified when these deals are available.

Credit: AmazonAmazon makes it very clear that Amazon.com gift cards should only be purchased from the Amazon website or approved retailers. You should never try to pay for items outside of Amazon with an Amazon gift card.
You can’t use an Amazon gift card to buy items you intend to turn around and sell, whether as part of a business or as an independent contractor.
Amazon gift cards cannot be transferred between accounts.

Amazon Gift Card Scam Warning

Amazon wants to make sure you aren’t getting scammed into buying gift cards, and the company details a list of common scams on its website. Amazon will never pressure you to only use a gift card and any vendor that tries to do so is most likely a scammer. Amazon representatives will never ask for personal information like Social Security numbers, account passwords, or gift card codes through an unsolicited phone call.

Can you do payment plans with Amazon orders?

Amazon Affirm allows you to set up payment plans on select products if you qualify. This can be extremely helpful for those who want to make small monthly payments rather than a large lump sum payment upfront.
The generous payment plans can run from three to 48 months.
There’s no pre-payment penalty but there is an interest rate that will accrue on the purchase. Make sure to double-check the interest rates so that you know exactly how much you are paying for an item, and if you can afford the monthly payments with the interest added.

Always Get the Best Deals at Amazon

Whether you’re paying with a gift card, payment plans or rewards points on Amazon, nothing is more satisfying than getting a great deal on a product. If you’ve been waiting for a sale or a deal on something, set a Deal Alert to get instantly notified when that product goes on sale.
