Are Amazon shopping gift cards available for Ireland?

Are Amazon shopping gift cards available for Ireland? 173.180.228.11 (talk) 04:08, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Strange coincidence. My wife wanted to purchase an Amazon gift card for her mother in Ireland (Galway, Republic, not Northern). I had just helped her mom with Amazon Photos and noticed she uses amazon.co.uk. So, I had my wife purchase gift cards on amazon.co.uk, enter her mom's email address as the recipient. She got it. She used it. No problem. So, from very recent experience, I know you can use UK Amazon gift cards in the Republic of Ireland. 68.187.174.155 (talk) 13:32, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Amazon have said that they're opening an ROI site this year but no idea when.[1][2] Until then, they default to .co.uk but can also use any EU based site. Many find that using .co.uk gives a lot of items that cannot be shipped to ROI or attract fees but it IS the default site for those in Ireland, whether North or ROI. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nanonic (talkcontribs) 17:59, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
