Earn Amazon Gift Cards for Free

We love the idea of receiving something for free, especially fantastic rewards such as Amazon gift cards. Amazon is one of the world's most popular places to shop at online, and we choose to save our free Amazon gift cards to buy something special or to spend at a certain time of the year like Christmas, but obviously you can choose to use your Amazon rewards in any way that you wish! Now nothing in life comes entirely for free and you normally have to participate in some way to earn your free Amazon vouchers and gift cards. We have been members of various websites for some time which reward you for your participation with Amazon gift certificates, and we have received Amazon gift cards from them, effectively for doing stuff online that we would normally be doing anyway, or for spending a little time giving our opinions.

What we aim to do here is show you the best places online where you can receive Amazon rewards and explain how they work. We will only list sites from which we have received Amazon gift cards so in that way you can be sure they are legitimate in their claims. If you know of other sites which award Amazon gift vouchers and certificates for your participation then let us know here and we will review them here.

Many of these sites only reward residents of specific countries so check to see if your flag is listed next to the site to confirm whether you can participate in that site's reward scheme.

Where can I earn free Amazon gift cards?

UK USA Canadian paid surveys

Swagbucks - We recommend this rewards site as we have already received seven Amazon gift cards from them during our year and a half membership. It's a popular site and you can choose to receive earned rewards as Amazon (UK), Amazon.com or Amazon (Ca) gift cards.

How does Swagbucks work?
We use this site for many of our online searches and when you search using the Swagbucks search, you are sometimes randomly rewarded with the site's currency, which just happens to be the same as it's name, Swagbucks. Using the site's search every day, you can accumulate quite a lot of swagbucks and we would estimate, based on our experience, that within approximately two months you could earn enough to claim your first Amazon gift card. There are other ways to earn a lot more swagbucks, however, which can help you to reach your target more quickly:

1) Complete the daily site poll each day, which is a single question, to earn 1 swagbuck.
2) Download and use the Swagbucks toolbar - and look out for special Swagbuck's codes.
3) You could complete online surveys through the site's Trusted Surveys portal.
4) You can complete daily tasks or offers.
5) You can watch Swagbuck's TV or play their games.
6) Finally you can invite friends and earn from your active referrals.

So there are many more ways to earn Swagbucks, which effectively means you can receive your Amazon gift cards more quickly. If you prefer, there are lots of other reward options to choose from too, such as Paypal payments and other store gift cards.
You can sign up to Swagbucks here.

Which paid survey sites reward you with Amazon gift cards?

The Ipsos Consumer Panel

UK USA Canadian paid surveys

Ipsos are a leading global online market research company and run online survey panels across the globe. If you are not already a member of your country's Ipsos panel, then you could be missing out on some great rewards. Each time you qualify for, and go on to complete, one of their market research surveys, you are rewarded with Ipsos panel points. These points accumulate in your Ipsos account and can be redeemed from Amazon gift cards through the site's excellent reward scheme. We have successfully redeemed a number of Amazon gift certificates through the site and this is one of our recommended online survey panels. In our experience you receive regular opportunities to complete surveys and earn points. Individual surveys can last anything from 5 minutes to 45 minutes, and the longer they are, the more points you can usually expect to receive.

MySurvey is another reputable, global survey panel which rewards it's members with Amazon gift cards once they reach the designated number of panel points in their account. The panel operates in a similar way to the Ipsos panels in that you receive points when you fully complete their online questionnaires and surveys. Amazon gift cards are just one of the redemption options that this market research company offers and we have successfully redeemed our points for Amazon vouchers in the past. Again, their paid surveys generally take between 10 and 40 minutes to finish and, usually, longer surveys pay you more points.

Maximiles - is one of the best online loyalty and reward sites. You earn Maximiles points mainly for completing their surveys and short site polls, and for shopping online with their partners. There are other ways of earning additional points, such as signing up to offers and watching advertising videos online. The site offers a wide range of redemption options when you accumulate enough points.

Other sites and schemes where you can earn Amazon gift cards

Top Cashback - a UK Cashback Site

UK

Top Cashback is, in our opinion, the UK's best cashback site, where you get cash back when you do your online shopping through them. You can claim this cashback from your account as a cash payment, but they also offer you the chance to get 5% more when you redeem your cashback in the form of an Amazon UK voucher, which we think is a great idea if you do a lot of shopping online at Amazon.

You can sign up to Top Cashback here. It's free to join.

The Nectar Rewards Card - UK Loyalty Card

UK

Nectar is a well known and popular reward scheme where you can earn Nectar points in a variety of British shops, such as primarily Sainsburys, Homebase, British Gas and BP. There are other retailers you can pick up further points and Nectar also offer you the chance to pick up points when shopping online through their partners. You can save up your Nectar points to spend on a good variety of options, one of which is the choice to redeem them for Amazon UK gift certificates. This is a loyalty scheme that is certainly worth being a part of if you want to earn more Amazon rewards.
