Can I use Discover It Chrome cash with Amazon?

The Discover It Chrome credit card is often a popular choice among cash back credit cards. Not only does it offer 2% cash back at gas stations and restaurants on up to $1000 on combined purchases each quarter along with an unlimited 1% cash back on all other purchases, but its cash rewards also never expire, making it a good pick for potential cardholders. 

With the cash rewards earned from spending with the Discover It Chrome card, it is important for cardholders to know the types of purchases on which the rewards can be used. 

Over the past few years, mobile shopping has become increasingly popular, with Amazon being by far the most popular shopping app ― 150.6 million mobile users accessed the Amazon app in September 2019, according to Statista. The number of purchases made on Amazon will undoubtedly increase during and following the COVID-19 pandemic.

Therefore, it is important to know if the Discover It Chrome card allows its holders to use its cash back rewards on Amazon purchases. The good news is, cardholders can in fact use Discover It Chrome cash with Amazon. To do this, you sign into your Amazon account link that account to your Discover It Chrome card, pay with that card and apply your cash back at checkout.

Other ways Discover It Chrome cash can be used are on purchases made via PayPal, gift cards and eCertificates, donations to select charities, statement credits on your credit card or as a direct deposit into any account.

What policies do other cards have regarding the use of cashback rewards on Amazon purchases?

Some cards that also allow holders to use cash back rewards on Amazon purchases include the Chase Freedom, Capital One Savor Rewards and Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature cards.

However, with the Blue Cash Everyday Card from American Express, cash back is received in the form of Reward Dollars that can be redeemed as a statement credit, meaning its cashback rewards cannot be used with Amazon. A similar policy applies to the NASCAR Credit Card from Credit One Bank, where cash back rewards are earned in the form of statement credit that reduces the balance on your account.
