Prime Day is just around the corner, and Amazon is offering a free $20 credit for a limited time only. All eligible Amazon Prime customers need to do is upload a photo to Amazon Photos for the first time, and they're good to go.

The deal is only available until 11:59 p.m. PT on July 12, 2024. Once you upload the photo, you'll receive an email from Amazon within four days confirming that the credit has been added to your account and sharing further instructions for redeeming it. At that point, you'll have until 11:59 p.m. PT on July 17, 2024 (when the Prime Day sale ends), to spend the money on an order of $30 or more. Taxes, shipping, and gift wrap charges don't contribute to the $30 minimum, and the purchase must be on items sold by Amazon (so it won't apply to anything sold by a third party through Amazon). 

You must be an Amazon Prime customer who isn't currently on a trial account and hasn't used Amazon Photos before. Amazon Photos is a storage service for photos and videos. It provides free unlimited photo storage (and 5 GB of video storage) to Amazon Prime members.

This promo is pegged to Prime Day, Amazon Prime's massive two-day sale held this summer from July 16 to July 17, 2024. Prime Day features major deals across all categories for Amazon Prime members, from daily sales to lightning deals. The discounts often match the low prices we see on Black Friday and Cyber Monday, so it's not to be missed.
