    It says I am eligible. But the code is not working for me

    • OzComment on 23/08/2022 - 10:50

      Read the FAQs:

      For eligible customers, the promotion code NEWGIFT should be entered only once at the checkout. If you enter the code more than once, the following message is displayed at the checkout.

      "The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase."

      You can make the purchase and promotion will still be applied. You can check your eligibility on the top of this page.

  • RyanMK on 23/08/2022 - 06:16

    Code not working for me.

    The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.

    • TheLurker on 23/08/2022 - 06:45

      Same for me. I assume 5000 code cap may have been reached so deal may have expired. Others may confirm if it still works for them

    Not so attractive when you read the fine print:

    This promotional credit entitles you to $5 off a future Eligible Order. An “Eligible Order” refers to a purchase on Amazon.com.au of any item that is shipped and sold by Amazon AU, and excludes products sold by third party sellers including Amazon US (Amazon Global Store) even if “fulfilled by Amazon”, digital purchases such as e-books, products that are not in new condition such as renewed products, subscriptions such as Prime Video and Audible, any gift cards and postage or delivery rates.

    • Dealor on 23/08/2022 - 08:49

      Just check if you're eligible: New Eligible Customers means customers who have not previously purchased Amazon Gift Cards on Amazon.com.au or the Amazon App

  • SleepyBargainHunter on 23/08/2022 - 09:00

    If you get the error “The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase”, despite being eligible it may be because you already inputted the code. There isn’t a visual prompt when you put in the code saying it has been applied, so I put it in a second time and got the error. I still got the promotion confirmed despite the error.

    • Thrift on 19/09/2022 - 01:56
      +2

      When you successfully put the code in, a confirmation message appears on the right-hand side under the Order Summary - something like "Qualifying offers: GC promo credit $5.00".
      I didn't notice it until I put the code in a second time and got the "…cannot be applied to your purchase" error.

    Remember, applying such credit may make cashback illegible.

    Although that assumes amazon category is right and is not 0% category in the first place haha

    • OzComment on 23/08/2022 - 10:52

      good for groceries which is usually 0%

  • StephenCurry on 23/08/2022 - 09:20

    Lmao after buying the $50 GC Amazon put my account on hold for unusual activity.. But guessing it is because I haven't placed any order through Amazon before and they are reviewing my docs. Hopefully gets sorted out soon to get this deal (after missing other Amazon deals several times.. they're gone so quickly :(

    • vikvance on 23/08/2022 - 09:55

      Yeah, I've had the exact same thing happen to me once before, which is why I was concerned about OP's comment about "new Amazon accounts".

      It is dangerous to create new Amazon accounts & use them for buying new gift cards as the very first transaction, because it sets off some automated Amazon processes & they will immediately lock the account.

      • StephenCurry on 23/08/2022 - 13:05

        So that process is expected. Hmm that sounds like a bit relief. Actually that's just my account but haven't ordered anything before lol… not a new one created for this deal~ but lets see what's coming next :)

  • Peachout on 23/08/2022 - 09:30

    Mine also said I was eligible, then nothing at checkout when I applied the promotional code. Tried it anyway based on comments above, since I've never purchased an Amazon gift card. Just got the email… no $5 bonus. Might try Amazon Support.

    • TaurusHead on 23/08/2022 - 09:46

      Same, plz let me know how you go!

    • souths123 on 08/09/2022 - 11:36

      I cam up eligible, but when I add a $50 gift card, I can't for the life of me see where to enter the code at checkout

  • Poor Ass on 23/08/2022 - 09:32

    So I guess this is a marketing post for potential new Amazon customers?

  • OzBestDeal on 23/08/2022 - 10:19

    The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase.

    No deal for me

    • ripprind on 23/08/2022 - 18:30

      I got the same text but since the landing page told me I was eligible bought it anyway and got the credit

      • OzBestDeal on 24/08/2022 - 09:28

        Dang… that took lots of guts.
        Well done mate

      At checkout, I think after you've selected the payment method.

      • orly on 23/08/2022 - 15:15

        Thanks I'll check it out

    • souths123 on 08/09/2022 - 11:37

      me too….get to checkout but nowhere to enter the code

      • orly on 08/09/2022 - 11:38

        There's a place to enter it after the payment details

  • test123123 on 23/08/2022 - 11:33

  • pjsum on 23/08/2022 - 13:03

    For those eligible and struggling with entering the code, try on a laptop/desktop - once the code has been entered you'll have "Amazon GC promotion" showing under your order total on the right hand side.

  • PetitPoney73 on 23/08/2022 - 20:48

    "The promotional code you entered cannot be applied to your purchase."

    Somehow I'm eligible, thanks OP :)

  • remon on 25/08/2022 - 12:33

    Just wonder if anyone has already received the promotional credit? I have not got it so far. Purchased on 23 August.

            @O K: Thanks for your reply, yes, I have received it later on.

  • suchan on 06/09/2022 - 21:07

    Interesting:
    - I bought an Airbnb gift card back in April this year, when there was a promotion to get some sort of credit by purchasing eligible gift card
    - When I clicked on the link, it says I"m eligible"
    - Bought a $50 Amazon gift card
    - Got email that says I should receive the promotional credit.
    - Haven't actually received the credit, but will check back in an hour

    Guess I'm lucky?

    • souths123 on 08/09/2022 - 11:45

      also keep in mind this has been going for a few weeks and it says "first 5000 customers"

      • Thrift on 19/09/2022 - 01:59

        Still working. I just used the code and got the credit.
