Its Black Friday again — heres how to use a Visa gift card to shop

Have a Visa gift card that you keep forgetting to use? 'Tis the season to break that bad boy out.

You'll be able to squeeze way more out of those free funds if you shop during Black Friday .

With practically everything on sale — headphones , TVs , kitchen appliances , outdoor gear , etc. — you can stretch your Visa gift card even further than usual and get the most bang for your buck.

But how do you actually use it to shop on Amazon? Adding a Visa gift card on Amazon isn't the cut and dry process that you'd expect.

While it is technically a gift card, it can't be registered as a gift card like an official Amazon gift card would.

Instead, you'll have to register the gift card like you would register a legitimate Visa debit or credit card to start using it as a payment method.

If you're unsure how to go about it, we've got your back.
