According to a reader report from dp, making a donation to Wikipedia can successfully trigger this offer. It may take around 10 days after payment is completed to receive the $5 Amazon gift card.
Amazon Pay has launched a new promotion: make one payment at a participating merchant and get a $5 Amazon gift card, with no minimum purchase amount required. Amazon Pay uses the credit cards or debit cards saved in your Amazon account. At checkout, just click the Amazon Pay button to sign in, similar to PayPal. From what we found, you can trigger it by buying a 1-cent audiobook e-book, or by donating $1 to Wikipedia.
Eligible merchants include:
- audiobook: an e-book for just 1 cent
- Wikipedia: donation link
- Other merchants: there are not many great options; the two above are already pretty good
