Amazon is offering Prime members a $250 gift card simply for getting approved for its credit card. The bonus appears immediately—no waiting, no hefty spending requirements over months like typical offers. Nothing. This promotion is valid until 8 December 2025, coinciding with the busy holiday shopping season.

New cardholders can combine the bonus with 10% cashback on select brands, including Dyson and Ring. It sounds like free money, and technically, it is.
