Amazon gift cards: which country should you buy?

Each Amazon site only accepts its own gift cards. Match the card to the site you shop on.

Amazon has a separate store in each country, and each one only accepts its own gift cards. The card you need depends on where you shop, not where you live.

• amazon.com (USA): US card in USD.
• amazon.co.uk: UK card in GBP.
• amazon.de (Germany): Germany card in EUR.
• amazon.ca: Canada card in CAD.
• amazon.sa (Saudi Arabia): SA card in SAR.
• amazon.ae (UAE): AE card in AED.

How to redeem

1. Sign in on the right Amazon site.
2. Open Your Account → Gift cards → Redeem a gift card.
3. Enter the claim code and click Apply to your balance.

The balance stays on your account and is used automatically at checkout on that Amazon site.
