Does Walmart Sell Amazon Gift Cards? What to Do Instead

No. Walmart's current gift card hub highlights Walmart cards, open-loop cards, and other brand cards, but not Amazon gift cards. The practical move is to buy Amazon gift cards directly from Amazon or from participating in-store retailers that Amazon says carry them.

Why the short answer is no

On Walmart's current official gift card hub, the main paths are Walmart gift cards, specialty gift cards, and Visa, Mastercard, and American Express cards. Walmart's broader gift card category also surfaces other third-party brands such as Apple, Chick-fil-A, DoorDash, and Starbucks, which supports the current conclusion that Amazon gift cards are not part of Walmart's verified gift card assortment.

Where to buy Amazon gift cards instead

Amazon's own documentation says physical Amazon gift cards are sold through participating grocery, drug, and convenience stores, and Amazon also points shoppers to digital gift cards on Amazon.com. See Amazon's Gift Card API overview for the in-store channel and Amazon's Prime Video gift card help page for the direct note that digital gift cards can be purchased through Amazon.com.

What Amazon gift cards can pay for

Amazon says its gift cards can be used for eligible goods and services on Amazon.com and certain related sites, not as a general-purpose payment method elsewhere. Amazon also says a loaded Amazon gift card balance can be used for Prime Video add-on subscriptions, and its Amazon Pay shopper guidance repeats that gift cards are limited to eligible Amazon purchases.

Where Amazon gift cards do not work

Two limits matter most. First, Amazon says Amazon.com gift cards cannot be used with Amazon Pay on third-party websites. Second, Whole Foods Market says in its own gift card FAQ that Amazon gift cards are not accepted at Whole Foods Market stores.

Scam check before you buy or redeem

Walmart's fraud alerts say never send gift card information to someone you do not know. Amazon's internet scams and phishing guidance says not to give Amazon gift card claim codes by phone, text, or email as payment to a third-party merchant.

Buy from a verified retailer surface, ideally Amazon or an established in-store seller.
Do not pay a bill, deposit, or emergency request with gift card numbers.
Redeem only into the intended Amazon account.

Bottom line

Walmart does not currently surface Amazon gift cards in its verified gift card assortment. If you need one, buy it through Amazon.com or a participating grocery, drug, or convenience store, then use it for eligible Amazon purchases rather than Amazon Pay or Whole Foods store checkout.
