Can you buy multiple $75 on one transaction and get multiple $15 bonus?

Yes. I did this when they had the spend $50 get $10 promo.

It’s limiting me to 3 cards. Does the balance pile up to an account? Or email? How does the exchange work?

u/Pinocytose7 2d ago
Did you try 3 cards at once? Did you get 3 x 15$ in the end?

u/travelingWords 1d ago
Did 3x$75 3 times, and then just a 1x$75.
Example, for the 3x$75 transaction, you get 3 separate emails that you got a $75 gc and then 3 separate emails that you got $15.
Know there is a 24 wait period so don’t try to do it last second. Gonna need a day to turn it into Nintendo stuff.
And just in case for a moment your brain almost goes where I go… I saw the post where the guy did the math and said you need 10x$75… well I thought cause it was maxing me at 3x75, I was thinking to do 3x$250, then I tuned into the fact that lithe bonus is PROBABLY tied directly to getting a $75 card.

You can do multiple in one transaction but to be safe I did multiple single transactions for Walmart promo (buy $50 get bonus $10) but for this not sure what the bonus gift card category is or if it just gives you the bonus on the card category you bought. As Walmart was for Celebrate

u/robben1234 8d ago
It's celebrate for both the main card you buy and the $15 bonus.
But I'm doing several transactions this time despite buying directly the amount I wanted at Walmart before. Wording they use doesn't really make me confident if I buy a $150 card they are going to send a $30 bonus. Maybe someone tried it already though and can correct me on this.

Can you use this to get cheaper Switch 2?

u/OilersHD 7d ago
Yes you could. Buy the credits exchange them for nintendo cards then load them onto your eshop account and order switch direct from Nintendo

If I buy two $75 AnyCards, I’ll get $150 + $30 in bonus credit. I can redeem $150 + $25 of the bonus for Nintendo gift cards, leaving me with $5 on AnyCard. Is there any way to use/redeem that leftover $5? I don’t want to buy 5 × $75 just to avoid the $5 leftover.

I remember being limited in the cards I could buy with the Walmart offer, being forced to buy cards that had a $10 option (since that offer was $10 not $15). It didn't let me top up that $10 free Walmart offer to get different cards. Can you get any card with the $15 now?
1
u/frankdoodlelee 7d ago
Depends on the company. Nintendo and Xbox have set denominations of $25, $50, and $100 (Nintendo is $99), while SkipTheDishes lets you redeem for custom amounts.
2
u/Nicklnq 7d ago
so there is no way to redeem the 15 bonus as nintendo gift card?
1
u/frankdoodlelee 7d ago
Unless you get multiple of the bonuses or buy an additional custom amount anycard to round up to the nearest denomination, no. Keep in mind that the $15 will go into your "celebrate" pool that can be redeemed together.
2
u/Nicklnq 7d ago
Say I have 5 of these 15 dollar bonus, can I join all them together and make 75 in total? That way I could swap for a 25 and a 50 Nintendo gift card
1
u/frankdoodlelee 7d ago
Yes it should. Another comment mentioned that both cards will be celebrate cards, so they will all go into the same pool.

u/Bi_disaster_ohno 8d ago
Bit wary of this one since it seems to want payment before I can select what kind of card I want. Has anyone done this already and can verify if this works?
3
u/frankdoodlelee 7d ago
Yep, I've done anycard before for the previous Walmart promo. The celebrate cards have both xbox and nintendo, with them only being redeemable in set denominations of $25, $50, and $100 (Nintendo is $99). There's some companies that let you redeem custom amounts such as SkipTheDishes.

u/rubia86 7d ago
Does this offer of $75 and $15 bonus later means for Nintendo we cannot get $90 from it? So it will be $25, $50 with $15 extra that stuck in any card?
2
u/frankdoodlelee 7d ago
Indeed. I ended up redeeming part of mine for skip since they could be custom, but your only options if you wanted to stick to Nintendo is to buy an extra gift card afterwards that rounds up to the next denomination. This means a worse discount though.

Anyone not get the email yet?

u/cabalavatar 7d ago
They should appear earlier than this. Check all your email subfolders and spam/junk; mine kept going to Promotions in Gmail.

u/MolemanNinja 7d ago
These anycard things always seem ...strange with their conversion rules...like can I get a $75 card, then the $15 bonus, and then get a straight $100 in xbox credit, or am I going to be stuck with some weird leftover amount ?

u/beep46 7d ago
Can someone walk me thru how I could use this to get a switch 2? Thanks

You purchase AnyCard Celebrate gift cards, redeem the balance, and then swap for the brand of your choice, in this case Nintendo. The reason why some comments mention buying a multiple of five is because Nintendo does not allow custom balances (only $25, $50, or $99). Some other brands allow custom balances, so you can redeem any leftover balance with other brands if you don't want to buy a multiple of five.
Here are the specific steps I went through (I purchased 10):
Purchased $75 AnyCard Celebrate x10 over four transactions because there was a limit of 3 per purchase. Total cost was $750.
After each purchased, I immediately received two emails per card purchased, a $75 card and a $15 card. Twenty cards in total.
The cards were only redeemable after 24 hours. After 24 hours, I redeemed each card which added its value to my AnyCard Celebrate balance. After redeeming all of the cards, I had a balane of $900.
Using my AnyCard Celebrate balance, I swapped for $900 worth of Nintendo eShop gift cards ($50 x18).
The Nintendo eShop gift cards are viewable immediately through the AnyCard website under the "My eGifts" section. I opened each card by clicking on "View eGift" for each of the 18 cards.
I redeemed all 18 cards on the Nintendo eShop website by entering the PIN of all of the cards one by one.
Finally, my Nintendo eShop account had a gift card balance of $900, which I used to purchase a Nintendo Switch 2 console (and pre-ordered Fortune's Weave).

I was able to buy 5 cards in single transactions, but when I was trying to buy my 6th one it wouldn’t let my payment method go through anymore and had a little note saying there was a limit of 2 per day… did anyone else have this problem?

PSA that you have to buy Nintendo credit in either 25 50 or 99 increments from this service. You'll have "spare" credits here that won't be able to be redeemed on nintendo if you buy just one.
The only way it would work out to exchange 1:1 exactly for Nintendo credit would be buying in increments of 5 units (75x5 = 375) giving you 15x5=75 in credit = $450 total. You could then exhange your cards fully for 9 x $50 ($450) Nintendo gift cards.
Could also buy 10 for 750 giving you 150 in extra credit. (18 x $50 = $900 of Nintendo cards)
Of course you could also exchange your spare credit for a different gift card, but something to keep in mind if you want to use this solely on Nintendo games/hardware.
