Here are some ways to prepare for Prime Day.

1. Check the Status of Your Prime Account

More From Your Money: Choose a high-interest saving, checking, CD, or investing account from our list of top banks to start saving today.

2. Update Payment Methods

Make sure all payment methods connected to your Prime account are up-to-date. CNET recommended removing any expired payment methods to make sure your purchases go through without delay. If you plan to make a large purchase, CNET said advising your credit card company or bank ahead of time can prevent it from being denied.

You can earn a $10 credit by participating in the Prime Stampcard event before Prime Day. To earn the credit, you’ll need to stream a show on Prime Video, listen to a song on Prime Music, borrow an ebook on Prime Reading or Kindle Unlimited and make a Prime-eligible purchase of $5 or more.
