([blog.the-ebook-reader.com](https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2025/05/14/kindle-rewards-program-now-open-for-all-us-accounts/?utm_source=openai))  \n- When you buy eligible items\u2014especially Kindle ebooks\u2014you earn points based on how much you spend. Specifically: **3 points per dollar** on Kindle ebooks and fewer points on print books or when there are special bonus days. ([blog.the-ebook-reader.com](https://blog.the-ebook-reader.com/2025/05/14/kindle-rewards-program-now-open-for-all-us-accounts/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n### How to redeem them\n\n- **Threshold**: You need **at least 300 points** before you can redeem. ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D5Kf00003WEtM5KAL/kindle-rewards?language=en_US&utm_source=openai))  \n- **Value**: Once you redeem 300 points, Amazon gives you a **$3 credit** toward your next eligible Kindle ebook. ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D5Kf00003VLFyzKAH/redeeming-kindle-rewards?language=en_US&utm_source=openai))  \n- You can redeem as many 300-point bundles as you have\u2014e.g., 600 points = $6 credit, etc. ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D56Q0000BpLhXHSQ0/kindle-rewards-message?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n### How to use the rewards / apply them\n\n- On the **product page** of an eligible Kindle ebook, you should see a checkbox like: \u201cRedeem 300 points for $3 reward\u201d near the \u201cBuy Now / Buy with 1-Click\u201d button. Tick this to apply the credit. ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D5Kf00003WEtM5KAL/kindle-rewards?language=en_US&utm_source=openai))  \n- If you don\u2019t see that checkbox:  \n  - Make sure you're browsing on **Amazon\u2019s main website** (not always in apps) ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D5at00000UdtQKCAZ/kindle-points-retrival?utm_source=openai))  \n  - The book must be **eligible** (not all books accept point redemption) ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D5Kf00003VLFyzKAH/redeeming-kindle-rewards?language=en_US&utm_source=openai))  \n  - If a book costs less than $7 and you have digital credits (like from Amazon\u2019s \u201cno-rush\u201d promos) covering the price, the checkbox may *not* appear. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/kindle/comments/1rpm8t9/kindle_rewards_points_redemption_glitch_solution/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\n### Expiration & Limitations\n\n- **Points expiration**: Points expire **3 months** after they\u2019re earned if they're not redeemed. ([amazonforum.com](https://www.amazonforum.com/s/question/0D5Kf00003WEtM5KAL/kindle-rewards?language=en_US&utm_source=openai))  \n- **Credit expiration**: Once you redeem your points, the credit (e.g. $3) must be used within **30 days**. ([reddit.com](https://www.reddit.com/r/kindle/comments/168lqed?utm_source=openai))  \n- Cannot use the points to buy **everything**\u2014eligible only for Kindle ebooks (no textbooks, audiobooks, magazines, etc.). ([justkindlebooks.com](https://www.justkindlebooks.com/article_jkb/what-is-the-kindle-rewards-program/?utm_source=openai))  \n\n---\n\nIf you want, I can walk you through checking your current points, seeing what books are eligible in your country, or even help you use the credit to buy something. Do you want me to pull that up for you?"
