Get a $200 Amazon Gift Card to Shop Fourth of July and Prime Day Sales

Must read

If you’re shopping Amazon’s Fourth of July sales or Prime Day this month, you can earn an instant $200 Amazon gift card to save money on your purchases with Amazon’s flagship credit card.

Amazon’s Fourth of July sale and early Prime Day deals are both live. This year, Prime Day officially kicks off on July 16 and ends on July 17. The two-day event features big discounts on Amazon’s wide-reaching inventory, making it the perfect opportunity to take advantage of the Prime Visa’s attractive welcome bonus.

Amazon’s Prime Visa card offers one of the best welcome bonuses on the market — a $200 Amazon gift card instantly upon approval. That could cover an item or two during your Prime Day shopping spree.

The Prime Visa card is CNET’s top credit card pick for shopping on Amazon, and its welcome bonus is a big reason why. Most credit cards require you to spend a certain amount of money within a specified time frame to earn a welcome bonus, but the Prime Visa doesn’t. If you’re approved, you’ll receive the $200 gift card right away.

This story is a part of Amazon Prime Day, CNET’s guide to the everything you need to know and how to find the best deals.

The Prime Visa card offers 5% cash back on Amazon.com and Whole Foods, as well as 5% back on Chase Travel purchases. Plus, cardholders can earn 10% cash back or more on select Amazon items.

You’ll need a Prime subscription to apply for this card, which costs $139 per year. If you don’t use Amazon frequently enough to warrant adding an annual Prime subscription to your wallet, there’s another option: the Amazon Visa*. The Amazon Visa comes with a $50 gift card upon approval, earns 3% back at Amazon and Whole Foods and doesn’t require a Prime membership.
