Commenting on the launch of the gift card, Ronaldo Mouchawar, Vice President of Amazon MENA said: “We’re excited to bring gift cards to Amazon.ae as an additional payment method for customers in the UAE to empower them with a variety of payment options that cater to their needs. Besides the obvious benefit of being used as a gift on occasions such as Birthdays, Eid or Christmas, the Amazon gift card is a convenient payment method for customers who don’t own credit or debit cards. Shoppers can now order millions of products available on Amazon.ae and choose to either pay via the gift card, credit card or cash on delivery.”
