How to Use Gift Cards and Vouchers to Shop on Amazon

Ways to Convert Gift Cards to Cash or Use the Balance

An engineering student received a $100 Amazon gift card from their company but didn’t want material items. They found gold coins on Amazon and used the gift card to purchase one then sold the coin for cash to have funds they could use more freely. Another option is to add gift cards or vouchers to your Amazon Pay balance. The redeemed value will then be applied during checkout for purchases or the balance can be used to pay for mobile phone recharges, utility bills, food deliveries, and more digital services through Amazon Pay.

Field Service Management Software for Utilities Technicians

The student was interning at an electric utility and asked their supervisor about efficiently scheduling maintenance tasks and work orders for technicians in the field. Their supervisor said the company used field service management software to optimize routing and ensure work was completed as scheduled. Many popular apps existed for Indian companies, but none were truly designed for the unique needs of field service work in utilities industries. Most software options were expensive as they were created by US-based companies.

An Affordable Field Service Software Startup from India

Fieldy is an Indian startup developing more affordable field service management software tailored specifically for utility technicians and other field workers. To promote their new beta software, Fieldy is actively marketing to Indian utilities and conducting widespread demonstrations of the product’s features. Fieldy is also giving away $100 Amazon gift cards at random to those who sign up for the beta trial to evaluate the software.

Redeeming Gift Cards or Vouchers on Amazon

To redeem a gift card or voucher on Amazon, first log into your existing Amazon account or create a new one if needed. Then navigate to the “Gift Cards & Promotional Codes” section of the website, which can usually be found within the “Accounts & Lists” drop down menu. Enter the full code from the gift card or voucher to add its monetary value to your Amazon balance. Gift cards can also be scanned using the Amazon mobile app for easy redemption on the go.

Shopping with the Redeemed Balance

After redeeming a gift card or voucher, check your account balance on Amazon to verify the funds were properly added. When making a purchase, the redeemed balance will automatically be applied toward checkout totals during the payment process. You can then shop for eligible items as usual through the Amazon platform. Any remaining balance after a purchase can be used on future eligible orders within Amazon’s guidelines.

Keeping Updated on Redemption Process Changes

As interface and policy changes sometimes occur on websites, it’s wise to periodically check the official Amazon help pages for the most current instructions regarding gift card and voucher redemption. Customer support is also available through live chat or the phone for assistances with any issues that come up. Staying informed ensures the process stays simple and stress-free each time cards or codes need to be redeemed and used toward shopping on Amazon.com.

A Chance to Win Gift Cards by Testing New Software

At the time, Fieldy was actively promoting their beta field service management software by offering $100 Amazon gift cards at random to those who evaluated the program. This was seen as a clever way for the new Indian startup to introduce technicians and others to their more affordable software alternative designed specifically for field work compared to expensive options from the US. Signing up only required basic contact information and agreeing to provide feedback after a free trial.

Confirming Advice Remains Accurate

All the details provided about redeeming gift cards on Amazon and using Fieldy’s field service software promotion were last checked for accuracy in September 2021. However, policies and interfaces can change over time. It’s always a good idea to double check Amazon’s official help pages or contact customer support directly to ensure the most up-to-date guidelines are being followed for any gift card or voucher redemption processes. Staying informed helps everything go smoothly.
