There’s no way to buy a gift card with existing gift card credit – the option for it doesn’t even show up; just wants me to use normal payment methods even though I got boatloads of amazon gift card credit (all from credit card bonus offers). It sucks. I just want to send some to my coworkers for the holidays but no go.

I really don’t know about that Rinto, and actually this is the first time I’m hearing about this way of doing it.

If we redeem first the the gift card into our Amazon account balance, then buy another amazon gift card using the balance, is it possible?

Haven’t tried this myself, but this thread here speaks about the same thing and says that it can be done:

Add the gift card to your account, and then use the gift card option while payment, and you should be good.

I think they should relax this rule because it causes inconvenience to a lot of people, and doesn’t seem to serve any real purpose.

I learned this while Christmas shopping at Amazon. My cart included toys for my grandson and a gift card for his mother. If you include a gift card in your basket the option to apply gift card funds to the purchase is not available.

If I had your article last week it would have saved me a call to Amazon’s customer support.
