You can find almost anything on Amazon, including a great Father's Day gift, but if you're in a pinch and not sure what to get dad this year, why not give him an Amazon gift card instead? With millions of items to shop and peruse, including all the latest tech, sporting and car gear, dad is sure to have a ball scrolling through Amazon's listings. Plus, with expedited and overnight shipping to eligible suburbs, dad could order on Sunday afternoon and receive his order early Monday morning. What a win.

Kayo Sports standard subscription: AU$1p/m (for 1 month, then AU$40p/m)

There's no better way to spend a Sunday arvo with dad than letting him cheer on his favourite NRL or AFL team. Instead of wishing he would change the channel, maybe it's worth letting him feel like he's tuning in from the sidelines with 4K streams of every match with a Kayo Sports subscription. Starting from AU$30p/m for a standard plan or AU$40p/m for a premium plan, dad can watch his top-rated sporting events live or on demand from the comfort of his favourite recliner.

Right now, Kayo has a cheap-as-chips deal, with subscriptions starting from AU$1 for the first month. After the promo period, you'll pay full price for the subscription of your dad's choice.

OnePass membership: AU$40p/y

If your dad spends more time at Bunnings Warehouse than at home, a OnePass membership could be worth his while. For AU$40 a year, dad will score 5x FlyBuys points, express click and collect, 365-day returns, and free delivery on eligible items. OnePass also includes other retailers, such as Kmart, Target, and Officeworks.

If dad is constantly on the go, be it commuting or travelling, there's no better accessory to have than a portable power bank for his devices. Our colleagues over at TechRadar give this INIU top marks in their best power banks guide, as it can fast charge your phone with its 10,000mAh battery and still have extra juice left over.

Right now, you can pick up the 128GB Wi-Fi model of the latest iPad Mini at a massive 14% discount, bringing it to its lowest price ever. Powered by the impressive A17 Pro chip, you can expect snappy performance from this tiny-but-mighty tablet, with a display measuring just 8.3 inches. Dad will have endless entertainment options with this Mini, including but not limited to completing the daily NYT crossword, reading the news and of course, playing his favourite Apple Arcade games.

Does dad constantly forget appointments or birthdays? It may be worth investing in this Skylight digital calendar. With Wi-Fi-enabled calendar syncing, chore tracking and meal planning features, dad will never forget a thing (including when to take the bins out!).

Nintendo Switch 2 takes what worked about its best-selling predecessor and makes impactful upgrades across the board. From the excellent, noticeably larger, 7.9-inch display to the more powerful internal specs, the Switch 2 is a full leap forward and the best hybrid console you can buy. This bundle deal comes with the newest iteration of Mario Kart, Mario Kart World, so you and dad can enjoy a race or two — after you've finished setting the console up for him, of course.

Got a gamer dad who needs an upgrade? The PS5 console unleashes new gaming possibilities with ultrafast loading thanks to a high-speed SSD, deeper immersion support for haptic feedback, adaptive triggers and 3D audio.

Razer's Viper V3 Pro is nothing short of an exceptional gaming mouse, especially if dad is an amateur esports gamer. This mouse is lightweight, offers superb tracking and a nice symmetrical design. Available in a range of fun colours and designs, this wireless pointer would make an excellent addition to dad's PC setup.

It doesn’t quite match a previous low of AU$349, but this nice discount using our exclusive code BREVFUTURE10 is still rather reasonable on the Bambino Plus. This compact machine ranks third on our best coffee machines list as a budget-friendly beginner machine. You'll need to pair it with a great coffee grinder; however, dad can expect some seriously gorgeous crema and effortless microfoam on his morning cappuccino.

Also available at Amazon for AU$542, but no matter where you buy this machine, dad'll surely be impressed.

Using built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth compatibility, dad can easily monitor his cooking progress and temperature using Inkbird's BBQ thermometer. The kit comes with two detachable probes, an LCD screen displaying temperature and a charging cord. Made out of food-grade stainless steel, the probes are waterproof, heat-resistant and wear-resistant, meaning they can be popped into the dishwasher after use for easy cleaning.

Give dad the ultimate peace of mind when he's away by gifting a Ring security camera.

Whipping up an array of frozen desserts, like ice cream and smoothie bowls, in minutes, this Ninja Creami will be dad's most used kitchen gadget during the warmer months.
