Direct Link to offer (non-affiliate) – no referral sharing in the comments
- Amazon Prime members who are Amazon Visa cardholders can refer a friend to sign up for the Amazon Visa card and get $50 when their friend is approved. Max $500 per calendar year (10 referrals).
Your friend gets the regular signup bonus on the card – at time of this writing the offer is for the new member to get an instant $200 Amazon gift card credit.
The Fine Print
- By sending this invitation, you agree that you will personally send the messages and you will not use bots or similar automated processes to send messages by mass distribution.
- Earn up to $500 in Amazon Gift Cards: You can receive a $50 Amazon Gift Card for each friend you refer through this Refer-A-Friend offer who is approved for the card. Maximum bonus accumulation for this offer is $500 in Amazon Gift Card value in a calendar year. You may earn bonus Amazon Gift Cards up to the stated maximum for each offer, however, please note that if you take advantage of multiple opportunities within one calendar year the maximum value of bonus Amazon Gift Cards that can be awarded from all referral offers is $500 per calendar year. In the event the bonus Amazon Gift Cards you earn from all referral offers exceeds the $500 per calendar year limit, you may be awarded a partial amount to keep your total bonus at the total value of $500. For example, if you have already accumulated $470 in Amazon Gift Cards from refer-a-friend offers that calendar year and the maximum is $500 in Amazon Gift Cards per calendar year then the next award will be a $30 Amazon Gift Card even if the offer states $50 Amazon Gift Card.

Our Verdict
This is a nice way to sweeten the $200 bonus by getting your friend $50 as well, all with no spend requirement. Note, only the main Prime member can refer for this bonus, secondary Prime members don’t have the offer.
No referral sharing in the comments – since it’s the same as the public bonus I’m not sure it’s worth making a referral thread, and hopefully everyone can find a friend and get them the extra $50.
