The catch

You knew there had to be a catch, of course. And in this case, there's a strict eligibility limitation.

In order to qualify for this deal, it has to be the first time you've ever added any balance to your account using Amazon Reload. We find that most people aren't even aware that Amazon Reload exists though, so most of you should be eligible for the promo. The good news is that there's an easy way to find out if you're eligible without just having to add $100 to your account and cross your fingers.

Can you get a free Amazon credit?

Determining whether or not you're eligible for a free Amazon credit really couldn't be easier. All you have to do is visit Amazon's terms and conditions page for this promotion. If you see a message that says "Sorry, you are not eligible for this promotion," you're out of luck. If you see the following terms and conditions, you're good to go:
