We know your wallets are taking a bit hit this year as the cost-of-living climbs northwards. But there’s good news — Amazon is offering tons of bargains for you to nab on its upcoming Prime Day sale.
This two-day sale will be loaded with heavy discounts and unmissable offers on phones, electronics, home décor and appliances, beauty and personal care, fashion and clothing, and everything else you’ve ever wanted to shop for.
Ali, who’s been living in Dubai for the past four years, is a shopping enthusiast and an Amazon loyalist — he’s been eyeing an Acer laptop on the site for the past few weeks and hopes to hit the home run with a bumper offer on Prime Day.
On 23 and 24 July, Amazon will be offering epic deals and massive discounts exclusively for Prime members. But there’s icing on this cake! You can enjoy additional 30% savings on prepaid or EMI orders if you pay with your ADCB card or Mastercard.
Now, we get it that not everyone has an ADCB card or Mastercard. Our friend, Ali doesn’t have one either — but he’s found a simple hack to get access to an ADCB card or Mastercard and save 30% less on all Prime Day deals.
So, even if payday is still a week away Ali’s not worrying anymore — he can see the extra savings that will come his way if he uses the hack. Here’s what Ali is doing, and you can do too:
Step 1 — Ask a Friend to give you a Xare card
Find a friend who has an ADCB card or a Mastercard and ask him to send you a Xare card. Xare is a super smart mobile app that allows anyone to share access to his or her bankcards with a friend, instantly and for free. Ali is asking his friend to send him a Xare card for AED 2000 for the laptop and has promised to pay him back later.
Step 2 — Get access to your friend’s card — not the card details
Once you receive the Xare card from your friend and click on the link in the message, you get direct access to his bank card to shop or spend as like. But remember, you can use his card, but you Do Not get to see his card details. After all, he’s doing you a favor, but he wouldn’t want to risk the security of his bank card.
Step 3 — Shop and get 30% extra savings
With the Xare card in hand, you can simply go to the Amazon store on Xare and shop for whatever’s on your wishlist. Since your friend used his ADCB card or a Mastercard to create the Xare card, you will enjoy 30% extra savings on Prime day offers.
Easy-peasy, isn’t it? Ali’s thinking about using the 30% he saves on his laptop purchase for buying some accessories as well from the Prime Day sale. It’s your turn now to gear up for the Amazon Prime day sale and with the Xare hack, it’ll be raining savings all the way!
