(I assumed you were using PP Credit, perhaps not.  But, it should work the same way (payable by PP Balance).  Anyhow, try it on another day.)

I found Amazon doesn't accept PP credits (wallet amts). I had to purchase a Gift card and it all took 5mins. Piece of cake. Thanks to all who help people like me figure this out. Hopefully, Amazon will make it easier in the future.

This doesn't work. PayPal doesn't sell Amazon gift cards.

Minutes ago, I purchased an Amazon Gift Card using PP Credit.  I was given the option, after clicking "Buy Now", to use my PP Balance. 

 

I was prompted to Login.  Then, I had to verify my identity - I selected "by Text Message".   A text ("Are you trying to purchase a Gift Card...") and I replied.  (I don't know if verification is needed if using the PP Balance -- it was for Credit".)

 

I was, then, prompted to complete the payment.  As soon as I did, the Gift Card Code popped up on the screen with the option to "Redeem Now".

 

I clicked "Redeem Now" and was taken to Amazon and prompted to Login.  After I did, I was taken to the Gift Card section of my account, where the Code was already filled in.  All I had to do was click "Add to Balance".  And it was done.  Couldn't have been easier.  Smiley Happy

 

I hope this helps anyone wanting to buy Gift Cards through PP.  Also, check out the other Gift Cards available.  There are a lot to choose from.  (Great selection!)
