Turn Your Screen Time into Amazon Credit — Here’s How I Earn Free Gift Cards Every Day Without Spending a Penny!

By Md Zillur Rahaman ChowdhuryPublished 7 months ago • 3 min read

Let me start with a confession: I used to think "free Amazon gift cards" were one of those internet myths—like unicorns or calorie-free pizza. But after testing a bunch of reward apps and sneaky little side hustles, I realized: earning daily Amazon gift cards is actually legit.

No gimmicks. No spending money. No weird surveys asking what kind of cheese you'd be in a past life (well, sometimes). Just real, easy ways to get free Amazon gift cards while scrolling your phone or waiting in line for coffee.

If you love Amazon (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t?), here’s exactly how I stack up those gift cards every single day—without lifting more than a thumb.

Step 1: Download Reward Apps (Your Future Wallet Will Thank You)

If you do literally anything online—watch videos, shop, answer polls—you could already be earning rewards.

Here are the apps I swear by:

  • Swagbucks – This one’s my favorite. I earn points by watching silly video playlists or clicking through shopping offers.
  • InboxDollars – Similar vibe. I get cash back from surveys and reading sponsored emails (yes, I actually read them—sometimes).
  • MyPoints – Been around forever, super trustworthy, and it adds up quickly.
  • Fetch Rewards – I just snap pictures of my receipts (even for gum!) and earn points. It’s stupid easy.

💡 Hot tip: Don’t just stick to one. I have all four and check them throughout the day like social media. They even give you bonus points just for signing up.

Step 2: Yes, You Can Get Paid to Play Games

If you’re a mobile gamer (or someone who just needs a brain break during work), this is a win-win.

Try:

Mistplay (Android only) – The more you play, the more points you earn.

Rewarded Play – I tried a couple of puzzle games and hit my first $5 Amazon card in three days. Not bad for a fun time!

I usually squeeze in a few games after dinner. It’s a way to relax and stack gift cards—talk about productive chilling.

Step 3: Take Photos of Your Grocery Receipts

I used to throw away receipts like they were useless paper scraps. Now? They’re basically currency.

Apps like:

  • Ibotta
  • Receipt Hog
  • Shopkick

…will literally pay you in gift cards or points just for scanning your receipts. I’ve made it a habit—get groceries, snap a pic, earn rewards. It takes 30 seconds, tops.

Step 4: Answer Easy Surveys in Your Downtime

Let me guess: you scroll your phone while watching Netflix. Same. Why not turn that time into free Amazon credit?

I like:

  • Survey Junkie
  • YouGov
  • Toluna

These pay you for your opinions—some even cash out instantly. The trick? Skip the 30-minute ones and stick to quick polls. It’s background money.

Step 5: Trade In Old Stuff + Use Cashback Sites

I once traded in my dusty Kindle (from 2013!) on Amazon Trade-In and got a $15 gift card. Easy win.

Also, if you shop online (like we all do), use cashback sites like:

  • Rakuten
  • TopCashback

They give you real money back when you shop through their links. You can choose Amazon gift cards as your payout option. Free money for doing what you were gonna do anyway.

Bonus Hack: Follow Giveaway Pages + Promo Drops

I stumbled into this rabbit hole last year, and now I’m low-key addicted. There are Facebook groups, Telegram channels, and even Reddit threads (like r/beermoney and r/giftcardexchange) that drop daily gift card giveaways and Amazon promo codes.

Sometimes it’s a spin-the-wheel game. Other times it’s just being the first to click a link. Either way—it’s worth checking if you’ve got fast fingers.

Real Talk: You Won’t Get Rich… But It’s Real

I’m not gonna pretend this will replace your job. But if you play it smart, you could easily rack up $20–$50 in Amazon gift cards a month. Some days I cash out enough to cover essentials—like that random thing I forgot I added to my cart at 2 a.m.

It’s all about building a habit. Open an app while waiting for your food. Take a survey while you binge-watch. Snap a receipt after a grocery run.

Over time? Those little moves add up to big Amazon wins.

Final Thoughts (and a Challenge for You)

Try this for one week:

  • Download 2–3 of the apps above
  • Use them in your downtime
  • Keep track of how much you earn

You might be surprised how much free Amazon credit you can collect just by being a little more intentional with your screen time.

Let me know if you try it—I’d love to hear how much you earn in your first 7 days.
