*HOT* FREE $2 Amazon Credit For Everyone (HURRY!)

Hip2Save may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you via trusted partners and affiliate links in this post. Prices and availability are accurate as of time posted. Read our full disclosure policy here.

FREE $2 AMAZON CREDITAmazon.com is offering up a FREE $5 Amazon credit when you make a qualifying app or game purchase (see below for qualifying games)! Note that once a qualifying app is purchased, you will receive an email and the $5 credit will automatically be applied to your account (credit will be valid through April 7th). And, these apps are priced at just $2.99, which means you’ll basically snag a FREE $2.01 Amazon credit to your account (after you take into account the cost of the game).

What’s SO sweet about this promo is that it works without actually downloading a game! Just opt to download one of the qualifying $2.99 apps listed below. If you’re NOT an Android user, it will give you a warning that it may not be compatible with your device, but continue regardless (as you’re not required to actually download the app to get your $5 credit). After purchasing the app, add anything sold by Amazon.com to your cart and when you go to checkout, your $5 credit will automatically be applied. SO awesome! ๐Ÿ™‚

IMPORTANT NOTE, I am on my computer doing this and not my iPhone. If you’re having trouble on your mobile device, try switching to a computer to see if that works.

Here are the participating apps:

* Five Nights at Freddy’s 4 $2.99
* Photo Lab PRO $2.99
* Kingdom Rush Origins $2.99
* Pac-Man HD $2.99
* Relax Melodies: A White Noise Ambience for Sleep, Meditation & Yoga $2.99
* Ticket to Ride $2.99

Note that this credit will be automatically applied to your next purchase of any eligible item sold and shipped by Amazon.com and is valid through April 7th, 2016 (limit one promotional credit per customer).

(Thanks, Suzannah!)

    This never works for me on iOS. It doesn’t give me the choice.

    • Erin

      Same here.

    • K

      Me neither. Oh well…

    • Heather

      I have an iPhone and I just selected “full site” on Amazon’s mobile page and I was able to buy one of the apps. I already received an email saying I received a $5 promotional credit. Hope this helps!

      • Yolie

        Me too! Thanks Collin!

        • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

          YW! ๐Ÿ˜‰

      • LaurieW

        I can’t access the page. Can you tell me how to get to it? When I go to the full site it pulls up all the games. I’m so confused ๐Ÿ˜•

      • K

        Do you have an android device linked to your account?

        • ResseCup

          I’m having the same issue and i don’t have an android connected to my account. Is this the issue?

  2. Sara

    Worked for me! I downloaded an app to my Kindle (I’ve heard Ticket to Ride is super fun!) and instantly got the email notifying me of the $5 credit. Thank you!!!

    • Elaine

      Ticket to Ride is amazing!

    • Tiffany

      Yes, Ticket to Ride is good! ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re welcome Sara!

  3. harlow

    soo cool lk getting a 5.00 amazon gift card for 2.99 ๐Ÿ™‚ TYSM ๐Ÿ™‚

  4. Gyftgal

    I had promotional credit I didn’t know I had. So I ended up not spending any money and getting $5 back. Sweet! Thanks!

    • Steven

      My too Gyftgal, free app and free credit!

      • m

        What is gyft gal?

        • Shel

          Steven was referring to the comment directly above his. The poster’s name was listed as “Gyftgal” ๐Ÿ™‚ At first glance, it seems as though it might be another savings app, doesn’t it?

  5. Shanshan

    My Android phone is having “parsing” problem downloading the Amazon underground app, so would not allow me to proceed with purchase of the games. So I swith to desktop view/mode and even though I still can not download the Amazon underground app, it allows me to make the game purchase. I will look forward to play the game after I upgrade to a better Android phone.

    Now where do I find the credit? I have a lot of credit from choosing slow shipping as well, no idea where to view any of these…

  6. Holly

    Darn I’d already bought Ticket to Ride a while ago

  7. Queenmum

    Awesome! I bought the yoga app then bought a $4.99 scholastic DVD to add to an Easter basket ๐Ÿ™‚

    • Lori

      Thanks for the Easter basket suggestion. I think I’ll do the same ๐Ÿ™‚

  8. Hilary

    I’m on my iPhone and just got charged $2.99. Oops. Any idea how to cancel?

    • Jay

      You’re supposed to get charged 2.99 and get a $5 credit

    • m

      You have to pay $2.99 to get the $5 credit

  9. Niki

    Got it. Thanks!!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re welcome Niki!

  10. Bob

    I bought it no $5.00 credit how do i cancel

    • Bob

      ok it worked disregard

  11. mia

    Says i have to download amazon for andrid?

  12. Esther

    It used $1.00 from promotion to pay so cost was $2.11. Then got the $5.00 promo email ๐Ÿ™‚

  13. TJ

    Could not have been easier! On the mobile app I scrolled down to “Amazon full site”, then added Ticket to Ride to my cart and it gave me the option to deliver it to my son’s kindle or to the cloud, so I chose the kindle. Hit buy, and within 30 seconds I had the email confirming my $5 credit. Thanks Collin!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re very welcome!

  14. Jill

    Thank you!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      YW! ๐Ÿ™‚

  15. April Rose

    I loaded the photo app and it is hilarious! Turned my daughter into a bunny for Easter! Also got email for!$5 credit. ALL Worked! Thanks Collin!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re very welcome April!

  16. JenA

    That was easy. Just switched to “Full Site” from my Android and got the app without having to download the underground. $5 is already in my account! Thank you bunches Collin! ๐Ÿ™‚

  17. Sandy

    Got it! Thanks!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re welcome!

  18. sarah

    we have the relax melodies, great for white noise for baby to sleep to! we love the app, lots of noise choices.

  19. Roxy

    I had free credits so my app was free, but after I checked my digital promotional credits I noticed I had more than before. They added $2 for videos, $2 for mp3 and now I have $5 to use on apps. Weird. Thanks for posting!!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re so welcome!

  20. Veronica

    How do you switch to full site, I can not seem to figure it out. Thanks

    • Lindsey

      Scroll to bottom and there’s a link

      Coincidentally I had 300 coins from somewhere and the app was 299 coins! Free app still equaled $5 for me! Thanks!!!!

      • Veronica

        Thanks Lindsey, I still can’t find it, I use android mini, do you think this is the reason? Also, when I try to do it on the computer it keeps taking me to download the underground app which I have on the android. Very confusing. lol

  21. tipaye

    Not to be a “Debbie Downer,” but if you’re an iPhone user (and there’s no guarantee these apps will work) you’ll actually be *out* $1 after paying $3 and receiving $2. ๐Ÿ™

    • Amy

      No, you pay 2.99 and receive $5

  22. Sue

    It keeps taking me to download Amazon Underground instead of being able to purchase. Even the link sent to me takes me to the same page.

  23. Kathy

    doesn’t work on computers??

  24. Kat

    Thanks! Got Ticket to Ride for my Kindle Fire.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Glad you could snag it Kat! YW!

  25. Heath

    How do you check to see if you have any digital promotional credits?

  26. Brindha

    Got the credit…. used my amazon coins. Was charged 320 amazon coins with tax. Thanks Collin.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re welcome!

  27. Tiffany

    Ticket to ride is $6.99 in google play store. $2.99 sounds like a good deal. I never heard of that game. Ill try it out.

  28. eyez1998

    I just bought pac man . Got the $5 email right away. Thank u

  29. ihearthip

    Used my creds to get designer samples for free! Thanks hip2save!

  30. tracy

    This is challenging for me. It seems to make me get an Amazon Underground app. Any thoughts/tips?

    • Veronica

      I am having issues as well, I can’t seem to figure it out.

  31. MaryAnn

    I received the email, but the credit is promotional for digital content. Is this true for anyone else?

    • MaryAnn

      Nevermind…I see it’s for anything sold from Amazon… =)

  32. testudobb

    I try iphone (didnt work). Try mac…all it point me to is underground app (which is also for andriod) so I am guessing this is android/fire only deal>?

    • pandoraaddict

      Amazon devices run Android.

  33. Elizabeth M

    Worker great, thanks!!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      You’re welcome!

  34. I'mSoFrugal

    I was on my iPhone & got it. Thanks!!

  35. Jay

    I don’t have prime. What’s the best way to utilize the $5?

    • SAHM

      Subscribe and save.

  36. Lia f

    Awesome this worked for me! On Iphone 6s click on the link and select amazon full site at the bottom and click buy app!

  37. ang

    its asking me to Install Amazon Underground App ?

  38. Nicola

    Thanks Hip2Save!

  39. Patricia Lavenz-Goff

    I bought ticket to ride but when I tried to purchase the candy you advertised earlier it only let me use 2.30 of my promotional credit.

  40. Anne

    Thanks! Great to get free Amazon money!

  41. Juli

    I was able to purchase Ticket to ride for $1.08. I guess I had a $2.00 credit I wasnt sure about. I did get the $5.00 email but when I go to my credits. It shows I have a $5 credit for video, mp3, and video games. I was thinking the $5 credit we get is for anything I want to purchase on Amazon? Did I miss read it?

    • Juli

      Well never mind I guess ๐Ÿ™‚ I went and picked out some of the new paper mate gel pens and added them to my cart. It automatically took the $5.00 off. I got a 8 pack for $5.46 shipped. Pretty good because I saw them in the store tonight for $15 I think. Thank you ๐Ÿ™‚

  42. Moni B.

    Got it! Had a difficult time purchasing one of the eligible apps too. I read others’ tips/pointers, so I made sure to download/add the “Amazon Underground” feature to my Prime account & clicked on “Amazon Full Site” at the bottom of the page (if using the mobile site). If that doesn’t work then be sure to switch to “Desktop Mode” if using your mobile phone. You should see a button to “Purchase App” & when u click on it your associated payment form will automatically be charged (Note: This is different from regular Amazon purchases…there’s no opportunity to review your order, you’ll just be quickly charged). I bought Pac Man & my $5 promotional credit email was then sent almost immediately! Good luck!

    • pandoraaddict

      I did via the mobile site (already have app) without any problems.

  43. Kelly

    This did not work for me. I bought a game last night when I saw the post and I never got a credit. I checked my email and also tried adding something to my cart, no credit.

  44. Justin E. Miller

    I can’t complain. I had Amazon coins to use, so I did. Apparently there was another promotion or something going on, because I got a 299 Amazon coins discount, getting the app for free, plus the $5 credit. ๐Ÿ™‚

  45. Rita

    Got my email saying I received $5 credit! I love Amazon. Thank you!

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      Awesome! You’re very welcome!

  46. Dawn

    I got the email but every time I put something in my cart there is no $5 credit.

    • Collin (Mrs. Hip)

      It will show when you choose only “select” apps. Also if you are on a mobile device, maybe try a desktop as it seems to work better that way. Hope that helps!
