Amazon Prime Day kicks off in just a few days. The annual shopping event will take place on July 12 and 13. Before the sale starts, Amazon is giving you the opportunity to earn credits to put toward purchases made during the event.
You'll need to be an Amazon Prime member to start collecting credits. Memberships cost $15 a month or $139 a year.
Some of the offers require you to spend additional money to get credits, but others will grant you free credits in just a few simple steps. In most instances, the credits are only good on items sold directly by Amazon.com, not by third-party vendors.
Here are 6 ways to earn Prime Day credits in 2022:Get $20 when you try Amazon Photos
