Amazon is one of the most popular online shopping platforms in the world. It offers a wide range of products and services, including books, electronics, clothing, and more. 

If you have a Visa gift card, you can use it to shop on Amazon. However, Amazon doesn’t directly accept Visa gift cards. Here, we will show you how to use a Visa gift card on Amazon.

Add Visa gift card as credit or debit card on Amazon

  3. Click on the “Add a Payment Method” link.
  4. Select “Credit/Debit Card” as the payment method and enter your Visa gift card information.
