It's the last stretch of Prime Day, and several gift cards are still seeing major discounts. The best Prime Day gift card deals are great ways to score free money, whether you're shopping for yourself or a loved one. I've rounded up all the best ones still going below.

No matter its end purpose, buying a gift card on sale is a great way to save. Spending $40 to get $50 of credit at a store you'll shop at is a no-brainer — just don't miss out before they sell out.

Most Prime Day gift card offers are Lightning Deals, which are time- and quantity-limited, unlike other event deals. This means that if you're definitely planning to purchase one, it's probably a good idea to click "Buy" sooner rather than later. I'm seeing gift cards in the food, drink, and grocery categories disappear especially fast.

You can find a full list of the best Prime Day gift card deals below, ranging from food to entertainment to apparel and more. If you're hoping to shop additional sales across categories, make sure to check out our massive Prime Day deals hub. The four-day Prime Day event officially ends tonight, so this is the last chance to snag most of these offers.

Is Prime Day a good time to buy gift cards?

Prime Day is one of the best times to buy gift cards, as they often come at a discount or with Amazon credit. It's always good to stock up on gift cards, and when you buy during Prime Day, you save money. We don't usually see this many gift cards discounted on Amazon at the same time.

What makes a gift card a good present?

Gift cards are a great gift if you need to buy someone a present, but you're not quite sure what to get them (and you want to give them something a little more special than cash). If you have a general idea of what they like but don't know their size or interests, gift cards can be a helpful way to leave some of the choice up to them while still making a thoughtful gesture.

Are Prime Day gift cards physical or electronic?

It depends on the gift card. Be sure to thoroughly read the product description to check if the gift card will be sent to you physically or electronically via email or text.
