Still non eligible.
I got this code worked onec before, guess it's a one time promo per account.

Try the physical card a few posts above. I might try that on my six unsuccessful accounts. Only one was eligible and it was the newest one I have.earthpetal wrote: ↑ Still non eligible.

Looks like it's tied to the Prime Day deal since that's the only time I've seen this and it's not available for me. Funny thing is I didn't get the credit for that until asking originally. I did digital.

I tried the physical gift card on an account which never bought any gift card before and it still said "The promotional code you entered is invalid for your purchase".

This doesn't appear on your checkout page?goodfortune wrote: ↑ I tried the physical gift card on an account which never bought any gift card before and it still said "The promotional code you entered is invalid for your purchase".
Other option you have is to live chat with support, and give them the code 1016GIFTCA and say its not working for you, they'll make it up to you

I have two accounts, one worked with the code for e-GC, the other one didn't work for e-GC or physical GC (No Congratulations message).gtirsmiley wrote: ↑This doesn't appear on your checkout page?goodfortune wrote: ↑ I tried the physical gift card on an account which never bought any gift card before and it still said "The promotional code you entered is invalid for your purchase".

Sorry for the late reply, and thank you.alanbrenton wrote: ↑Try adding things sold by amazon to your cart to see if the $10 is deducted from the total. It is not going to show on your gc balance.bk2012 wrote: ↑Just checked my balance again, still said $50.alanbrenton wrote: ↑
I think it applies right after you receive the gift card via email. Had bought a few plumbing supplies to get our washlets working and fix a noisy/moaning toilet fill valve.
I just wrote them an email, hopefully I will get some help.
Yes the promo credit will show when I checkout my order.
Pretty happy about the extra $$ from amazon!

Don't think you can use your past credit to buy gc.

Some people are just too lazy to make it work. Five minutes with Chat and I had them manually add the $10 promo to my account after purchase (on a new account where I just started Prime) Thanks OP!

No mention of this in their rules but you can't purchase using a gift card balance.
I stand corrected, under limitations: https://www.amazon.ca/gp/help/customer/ ... Id=1060392

Your Amazon.ca Balance cannot be used to purchase other gift cards.

Fine print on the gift card order (which is commonplace EVERYWHERE these days):
Once applied to your Amazon account, the entire amount will be added to your gift card balance. Your gift card balance can't be transferred to other accounts, used to buy other gift cards, or, except as required by law, redeemed for cash.

I can't find the option for live chat on the site? Not in customer service section either.gtirsmiley wrote: ↑ Man..Amazon is frigging awesome, I told them I couldn't add the promo code on Live Chat, and they just gave me the $10 anyways, without having to buy the gift card.
After ending the chat with them, I tried again on the GC with the code, and I got the error...
SO I tried on the PHYSICAL GC, the one where they ship to your door..and the promo code was accepted! I am going to try purchasing this with the code now, maybe I can get $20 in credit in total !
