I've always used Rewards Center points toward new 6-packs, but I decided to peek at Amazon gift cards today and got confused by the value there.

The math makes sense elsewhere. I got 7500 points for a runner-up in a TOC, and that represents $50. So 150 points = $1.

So why does a $25 Amazon card cost 4750 points? Shouldn't it cost 3750 points? It would take 9500 points to get $50 in value, whereas it's been established that 7500 points are worth $50.

I had a long back and forth with support about this a year or two ago. Bottom line was that they want to keep people on the site rather than off of it, which is valid IMO

It makes sense. I was just unsure if it was a mistake or intentionally valued differently.

Six-packs for me all the way ...
