It is only 1 credit per account. I bought 2 N7's, but was only allowed 1 $25 credit.
You would need 2 accounts and 2 credit cards

Just curious if the 7 gets the $10 wallet credit other devices get as well.
The N7 gets $25 in credit upon activation.
Yes. I got it although it took a while to activate the prepaid card through Google. Eventually it worked though.

But that's only if you never had a Google wallet account previously ..

Actually...I signed into google wallet on my N7 (with the same Google credentials) and have a balance of $10 whereas my gnex has the balance from the 50 that I added of 32.XX. It appears to be two independent google wallet prepaid cards.

It's device specific, your Google account is only there for account protection. I have gotten the $10 credit on a Nexus S, VZW GNex, and a GSM Gnex

Yeah, that's kind of what I noticed too. Already had Wallet on my GS3 and the $10 prepaid card on that. Activated Wallet on my Nexus 7 just now and it appears to have it's own $10 prepaid card too. One odd thing did happen to me though: activating Wallet on my Nexus 7 appears to have deactivated my Citi card from my Wallet account on my GS3. Anyone else with similar experience?
i just have a quick question does the google wallet work even if you are not connected to wifi?
Yeah it does! Or it wouldn't be very useful would it

The google wallet app... it should be in your app drawer. When I launched it, it told me I could get the credit by signing up.

for Google Wallet in UK it says "This item cannot be installed in your device's country. "
If I sign in with a different gmail account on a new nexus 7, will it give that account the $25 too. But then I want to put back on my other gmail. Will that be a problem, or will I get another $25 credit?

I just set up my replacement tablet. I did not receive an additional credit. However, you can still get the $10 Google Wallet App credit.

Yes, if your initial sign in is under a different account than you used before you will get another $25.

You can't move credit from 1 account to another. Also you can't get an additional $25 credit on the same account. You would need to use a different account.

Did you login in your replacement device with the same account as in your previous device or a different account ??
Yes I returned my N7 as the speaker was distorted and got a replacement, I setup using my wife's gmail and got another £15 credit. I don't think you can get two credit from the same account.
Just wondering if I bought a new Nexus 7 and signed in with the Google account I have done on my current one, will I got more credit? Or should I just use my secondary Google account?
Thanks

If you use the same gmail account, no.
If you use a different one, then yeah

Yep. Credit is 1 per gmail account
So, on a related note, here's what I'm trying to figure out... Let's say you bought a Nexus 7 from Google Play, received and used some of the credit, and then return the tablet. Presumably, the credit is rescinded. But, suppose you've subsequently purchased a replacement Nexus 7. Is the credit reissued?
I'm in precisely this situation, and I'm looking forward to seeing what Google does. I have a feeling I'll end up losing the credit...
The credit is not rescinded as far as I know. I think I remember reading about this somewhere else.

$25 credit for new N7 stopped in September.

Interesting part is, I bought my nexus 7 32gb in Japan.
During the setup process it asked me to enter my data for Google Wallet.
Message was: my credit card doesn't qualify for the 2000 Yen credit, but basically it seems in some regions there is still promotion

As others have said, it's expired. Here's the relevant page, courtesy of a "$25 google play credit expire" Google search: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2670129

Also: it was 25$.
Still, you shouldn't feel disappointed, OP, as the price of the Nexus 7 has gone down around 50$ since we early adapters got our hands on one.
Correct me, but i think you get a free movie, a few books and 2 songs for free.. Idk if its still present, but i got them when i bought my 32GB 3g.. ^^

You guys are mixing up the free gift with google wallet and the free gift from nexus 7 purchases.
The gift with google wallet was indeed ten bucks.
The gift with nexus 7 was 25 bucks.
Both have now stopped.

The 10$ credit wasn't linked to the 7, it was for activating Google wallet. So no, there wasn't a 10$ credit with purchase of nexus 7, there was a 25$ credit at one point.

It finished ages ago, but you still got a free film, some books and some magazines. Here in the UK we only got a free film

Which, coincidentally, was explained earlier in the thread. There was never any $10 credit linked to the N7. Rather, it was only for activating the now obsolete Google Wallet prepaid card. The credit for early adopters of the N7 was a $25 Play Store credit, which ended 30 Sep 2012.
