Amazon gift cards are one of many, many options for compensating study
participants. Could you clarify what attributes of Amazon gift cards you
would like to replicate in alternative compensation methods? Is it...no
processing fees? General popularity of the business that the gift card is
for? A fully digital form of financial compensation?

I suggest looking into Visa gift cards, although they do have a processing
fee. Depending on the size of your sample you could also ask each
participant to designate a particular business they would like a gift card
from.
