Use TopCashBack
Like BeFrugal, TopCashBack offers cash back on Amazon devices, albeit only 2%. You can also earn a $15 Amazon gift card with an annual Prime subscription or Amazon Music subscription (new subscribers only).
Use Shopback for Cash Back
Shopback is a cash-back shopping app that achieved vast popularity in Asia. Now, it’s expanding in the U.S. and is one of the few platforms where you can earn high percentages of cash back when you shop at Amazon for virtually anything.
Shopback works similar to BeFrugal and other cashback apps. To earn cashback at Amazon, you must install the Chrome browser extension. When you log into your Amazon account, a notification will pop up to use Shopback for cash back. Click the button and it will turn green to indicate you’re earning cash.
You can earn 1.5% cash back (up to $5 per order) at Amazon, up to five times per calendar month.
Shop With Your Amazon Prime Visa Card
Many credit cards offer cash back on Amazon purchases. But the Amazon Prime Visa is widely hailed as one of the best credit cards for Prime members, with no annual fee and unlimited 5% cash back on Amazon and Whole Foods purchases. You can boost your cash-back earnings when you bundle purchases for Amazon Day Delivery, and also earn 10% or more on a rotating selection of product categories at Amazon.
Buy Amazon Gift Cards With Any Cash-Back Credit Card at a Store of Your Choice
If you’re not a Prime member or prefer not to apply for the Amazon Prime Visa, you can always shop at Amazon with any cash-back credit card of your choice.
You might also consider using a credit card that offers bonus cash back at grocery stores to buy Amazon gift cards. This can also help you budget for the holidays. When the gift cards are empty, you might think twice before making additional purchases.
