How To Remove A Gift Card From Amazon

Amazon.com accepts gift cards in addition to credit and debit cards for payment, like many other online retailers. But once you’ve used them, Amazon-branded gift cards can’t be taken out of your Amazon.com account. 

However, gift cards from organizations like Visa, Mastercard, or Discover can be used in a similar way to credit or debit cards. Here’s how to remove a gift card from Amazon:

Can You Unregister a Gift Card on Amazon?

Yes. To do this, you may need to:

  • Go to Amazon.com/unredeem. 
  • Input the claim code and ZIP code from the gift card. 
  • Select “Redeem” to unregister the gift card.

You can ask for a refund if you have an unusable Amazon gift card by contacting customer support. If you think you might still want to use the Amazon gift card in the future, it might be worth a try, as doing so imposes no fees. 

People usually desire to redeem or unregister an Amazon gift card for one of two reasons. Keeping track of all the many cards you receive throughout the year might be a chore to start with. Second, combining all of your Amazon purchases on one card can be more practical.

Do Amazon Gift Cards Have an Expiration Date? 

Gift Cards from Amazon have no expiration date. They are always valid and may be applied. Amazon gift cards, however, come with a small cost. Depending on the type of gift card, these costs range from $3 to $4 per card. The balance of the gift card is reduced by these fees. 

Make sure to verify the recipient’s Amazon account before purchasing a gift card for them to determine if it has already been used. 

By doing this, you can save them the $3 cost and offer them a fresh gift card instead. Christmas time is a terrific time to use Amazon Gift Cards to buy gifts for friends and family.
