About Amazon Australia promo codes and coupons:

After months of speculation, it's official – Amazon is here. After some experiments in late November, Amazon Australia finally officially launched in the early hours of Tuesday 5 December 2017.

Previously Amazon Australia has just offered Kindle and Audible, but now with a physical presence of warehouses Australia has officially landed. This means you'll no longer have to wait for delivery from the US or UK in addition to also having access to the Amazon Prime program – which includes paying a yearly fee for fast, free shipping on all order.

Amazon Prime Day

How do I use my Amazon promo code?

  1. Copy your desired promotional code from above list of active offers.
  2. Add the items you wish to order into your Shopping Cart. Ensure coupon conditions are met - including the types of items and the total price of your selected products.
  3. Click the checkout button to continue with your order
  4. Enter the promotional code you wish to utilise and click apply. The stated price reductions will then be applied to your checkout total. .
Amazon code

Reasons a coupon may not work :

  • The code was entered incorrectly or did not match the original
  • The items are not eligible for the discount or are not sold by amazon.com.
  • The sale offer has already ended or is not available in your country.

Note: If you are part way through an order and get to the checkout, where you enter and apply your promo code, but do not submit your order, the code will stay on your account. This allows you to come back at any time while the code is valid and complete your order and any subsequent orders.

What can I get from Amazon?

Pros and Cons of shopping online at Amazon

Pros

  • Buy now and pay later through Zip Pay. If you're looking to split the total cost of your order into instalments Amazon has you covered.
  • Peace of mind - when you order through Amazon.com, even if the item is coming from another merchant, you can trust that you will receive your products as described and on time. Due to the size, brand and reputation Amazon has and wishes to maintain, you can trust that your Amazon order will arrive.
  • Secure transaction - Amazon power their own payment processing system and this lives up to the expectations of customers ensuring your details are held safely. The payment system is also very easy to use making it an obvious choice.
  • Gigantic range - Amazon has an unbelievable range of products available to purchase.
  • Too easy - the search facility offered on Amazon is second to none and really makes it easy to find the products you are after.

Cons

  • These may seems petty, but some users are against shopping with Amazon as they believe they have too much market power. While this works favourably for the end consumer who gets to purchase items at great prices, some suppliers may not see it the same way.
  • Those who love to read hard copy novels may also see Amazon as a threat to the printed book and magazine industry, with the push for the Kindle.

What is Amazon Prime and is it available to Australian customers?

Yes, Amazon Prime is available to Australia customers. It offers a range of benefits, such as access to Prime Music, Prime Instant Video, the Kindle Owners' Lending Library and – of course – free two day shipping.

What do you need to know about the Amazon Kindle?

The Amazon Kindle is one of the biggest ebook readers on the market. The most recent version comes with touchscreen display, Wi-Fi and the ability to download books in less than 60 seconds. They're lighter than a paperback, last weeks without recharging and can store thousands of books.

So what's the catch? Due to licensing laws, certain titles that may be available in the US are not always available in Australia. You'll need to make your purchases from Amazon.com.au to ensure the title is available in Australia.

How can you get Amazon free shipping?

Simply sign up to Amazon Prime to receive free shipping in Australia and your order will be at your in as little as 2 business days. Amazon Prime costs as little as $6.99 per month which you can cancel at any point. Amazon offers as free trial, so take advantage of that to see if you want to sign up fully.

Are you having problems with an order?

Check your shipping status - if it hasn't shipped and you can cancel via your account. If it has shipped then you can refuse to sign for your delivery, or return it when you get it.

Digital downloads such as MP3s, apps or videos you cannot cancel these once you've placed the order.

How can you return an item to Amazon?

  • You must return all original packaging and accessories
  • Music, movies, software and video games must be unopened and still in their plastic shrink wrapping
  • Any consumer electronics must have a UPC or serial number to be returned
  • Any clothing and shoes must be returned unworn

      Hi Justeen,

      Thanks for your question.

      As Amazon is an American company, many of its shops and sellers are based in the USA which can lead to expensive postage charges to Australia.

      Unfortunately, it is rare to find free postage codes or deals to Australia through Amazon. This may change as the Australian market grows but for the meantime you might like to shop around and see if an Australian merchant could offer you the same or a cheaper price with postage included. Some online markets offer price match guarantees which you might be able to use against the advertised Amazon price.

      I hope that helps,

      Stephanie

      Hi Walker,

      We’re actually a comparison service, not Amazon themselves. We wouldn’t have any product specific information, you would have to contact them directly.

      Amazon Australia only do books, so if you’re looking for software, you may need to look elsewhere i’m afraid.

      Thanks,
      Clare

    you mention that there’s frequent free shipping to Australia promos. I’ve noticed only 1 in the past, but is there a subscription service to be advised when free shipping promos come up? I know you can check back here from time to time, but that’s the only offer I’m interested in and I don’t want to miss the window if the promo doesn’t run for long.

      Hi Clay,

      Thanks for your question.

      I’m sorry, we don’t have a subscription box at the moment running for when there is free shipping with Amazon, you will have to check back here.

      However, I have noted your comment and I will look into getting a subscription box made available for this purpose.

      Thanks,
      Clare

      Hi Lesley,

      Thanks for your question.

      You can purchase Amazon gift cards from Australia. Is your daughter in Australia or the US? If she’s in Australia, it’s better that you purchase an electronic gift card as shipping to Australia of physical cards isn’t available. If she’s in the US, a physical card can be sent to her postal address.

      Please note that Amazon gift cards can only be used on the Amazon US online store, not the Australian store.

      I hope this has helped,

      Stephanie

      Hi there,

      Thank you for getting in touch with us here at finder.com.au.

      All items under $1000 AU will not incur an import duty when brought into Australia. Unfortunately, items over $1000 AU will incur a charge. The actual rate will depend on the type of item you are ordering.

      Thanks for your comment!

      Hi Crystal,

      Thanks for your question.

      Certain items from Amazon can be posted internationally however some may not. When you are purchasing the item, you will be advised of whether it can ship to your location and, if so, how much international shipping will cost. If you are looking for beauty products that ship to Australia, you might like to browse our beauty coupon page.

      I hope this has helped,

      Stephanie
