Using Amazon Gift Cards Across Borders
GBP Gift Card Usage in Non-UK Amazon Accounts
The usage of Amazon gift cards across international borders depends on the currency and country-specific policies of Amazon.
Using GBP Gift Cards in Non-UK Accounts
GBP Amazon gift cards can be used on Amazon accounts outside the UK, but with certain limitations:
- Currency conversion: Amazon will automatically convert the gift card value to the account's local currency at the prevailing exchange rate.
- Region restrictions: Gift cards can only be used on Amazon websites that correspond to the country of issue. For example, a UK-issued GBP gift card cannot be used on Amazon.com (US).
- Balance limitations: Not all countries support the full Amazon gift card balance. Any unused funds may remain on the account but cannot be redeemed or transferred.
Recommendation
To avoid any potential issues, it is recommended to send gift cards in the local currency of the recipient's Amazon account. If this is not feasible, inform the recipient about the currency conversion and balance limitations.
