Does anyone know if you can send amazon vouchers `refer-a-friend` to yourself?

If i use a different bank card, or do they catch up the same name, address, just different card thing?

I managed to do it without any trouble.... just used two different email addresses and used my Credit Card for one account and my switch card for the other......

Amazon stores account details by unique email address not by physical address.

This means if you have infinite email addresses (like sirhc[at]moc.htab or efiw[at]moc.htab or sdik[at]moc.htab etc.) you can basically refer yourself. Amazon will see each email address as a different account (a "friend") and send them a voucher.

If your "friend" buys something then you get sent a voucher as thanks and you effectively get 2 vouchers for each referral.

Note that you don`t need to use different credit cards or different home addresses for this to work as none of that information is linked to the email address.

It is of course against the small print as it is supposed to be one voucher per person but you could argue that you are referring different members of your household which is not mentioned in the rules ;-)

Read a few messages recently about how Amazon were clamping down on this. They only sent an e-mail slapping you on the wrist and asking you not to use the referral scheme again though.

Nope each voucher has to be used individually - unlike gift tokens that can be stacked.

Most, if not all, Amazon vouchers of this type will not stack.
