Easy and simple: Exact Step-by-Step Guide to Reloading Your Balance
Reload type: One Time Reload
I found reloading my Amazon gift card balance much easier than expected. The process was simple and took about 5 minutes at most. Here are the exact steps to do it:
Login: In the Amazon app or on Amazon.com, log in to your account.
Menu: Tap the 3 lines on the bottom right corner of your screen (next to Rufus, Amazon's AI).
Find Category: In the section highlighted "Shop by category," tap on Gifting & Registry (3rd option down in that section) and a drop-down menu will appear.
Select Gift Cards: On the drop-down menu, tap Gift Cards (first option).
Choose Your Action: "The Gift Card Shop" will appear. There you will have three options: "Redeem a gift card," "View your balance," and "Reload."
Start Reload: To add funds, tap Reload.
Select Type: Scroll down to "Add funds directly to your Amazon Gift Card balance" and tap which reload type you want (one-time, low balance auto-reload, or scheduled auto-reload).
Enter Amount: Choose your reload amount. The default is $25, but you can type in your own amount as well (the minimum amount is $5.00).
Finish: Tap the orange "Buy Now" tab.
***I used the Amazon app using the u i OneUI version 8.0 these Amazon app on Android version 16 (Baklava) on a Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. Others may have a slight variation of the menu setup on the Amazon app.***
