When you\u2019re thinking about buying a book lover a gift for their birthday, holiday, or just because, sometimes, it\u2019s just easier to send them an Amazon gift card. But if they enjoy audiobooks more than physical books, can they also use that gift card on Audible?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You cannot use Amazon gift cards to make Audible purchases on the Amazon or Audible site. You must use one of the major credit cards, an Amazon-branded credit card, a debit card, or an Audible gift card to make your purchases. You can also make gift purchases for another user using these methods.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The rest of this article will explain what forms of payment Audible accepts, including credit, debit, and gift cards. I will also cover the methods for gifting Audible books through your Amazon and Audible accounts and what to do if all you have for a payment method is your Amazon gift card. Keep reading to learn more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n When shopping for gifts, you want to know that the person receiving them can use them, whether a physical gift or a gift card. <\/p>\n\n\n\n As I mentioned, you can\u2019t use Amazon gift cards on Audible or when making Audible purchases on Amazon, which may seem odd, given that Audible is part of Amazon. You\u2019ll have to find an alternative way to give an Audible book to your bibliophiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s start by exploring different payment methods Audible accepts to make things easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite being a subsidiary of Amazon, Audible does not allow the wide range of payment options that its parent company allows. To be precise, Audible authorizes payments from the four major credit card companies<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have an Amazon-branded credit card, such as the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa or the Amazon Store Card, that\u2019s also an accepted payment form. Debit cards are also approved, provided they are branded, such as by Visa. Both debit cards tied to your bank account and prepaid cards are allowed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Suggested Read – How to Use Amazon Gift Cards for Kindle Books?

The payment information will be shared between the two accounts if you have an Amazon account. Changing it on Audible will change it on Amazon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At this time, there are no gift cards for Audible. Anyone wanting to purchase a book on Audible, whether for themselves or someone else, will have to use a different payment method. For gifting, which I will cover next, you must take specific steps that allow you to choose the title or purchase a membership for the recipient. <\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have your heart set on giving the gift of an Audible book, it\u2019s still an option; you just have to do a little more work than buying a gift card. Both Amazon and Audible allow you to gift gift Audible memberships<\/a><\/strong>, which makes it easy if you don\u2019t have your Audible account set up.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nAccepted Forms of Payment on Audible<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
