The link will bring you to the activation screen. The offer WON’T show up until you add a Discover card as a payment option and link your Discover Cashback Bonus point rewards account to Amazon. If you haven’t done this, go to the next sections in this post where I’ll show you how.

If you’re linking your Discover account to Amazon for the first time, it will take a few days before the offer shows up in your Amazon account. Try the link again later to see if your account status changes.

You can also take advantage of this promotion even if you’ve already done so in the past. That’s also explained in a later section so scroll down if this applies to you.

You can also go there manually to add a credit card by going to “Your Account”, then “Payment options”, and then entering your credit card information:

How do I link my Discover Cashback Point account to Amazon?

Linking Amazon to Discover Cashback Bonus

When you are going through this process, be sure to select no when Amazon asks you if you want to use your points as the default payment for future purchases.

I wouldn’t recommend using your Discover Cashback Bonus points at Amazon since the redemption value is not great, but for this specific promotion you only need to use 1 Discover point to get the 20% discount.

Can I do this again if I already participated in an Amazon/Discover promotion?

Yes, but there’s a trick to it. If you already checked the link and it says you’re not eligible for offer, here’s how you can get around it:

  1. Delete all Discover cards as a payment option on Amazon
  2. Add at least one Discover card back on
  3. Re-enroll the ability to use Discover points
  4. Try activating the offer again
  5. If that doesn’t work, try again for a few days

It took me 2 days to get the offer to show up again, but once it took as long as a week.

What other details do I need to know?

The most important one to remember is that the items need to be sold AND shipped by Amazon. How can you tell?

Chances are that the item is shipped by Amazon if it offers Prime Delivery, but it still could be sold by a third-party seller. To check that Amazon is selling and shipping it, check for this statement near the price tag. Here’s an example where you can find it:

The Bottom Line

Excellent deal for those who got it. This offer amounts to a 33% discount on your Amazon purchase.

For those who don’t have an immediate use for the discount, a little hidden secret is that you can use these for gift cards too. For example, you can buy a $150 Uber gift card for $100. Load that to your Uber or Uber Eats account and get a nice discount next time you use those apps.
