Shopping online should be a fun, seamless experience. The reality, however, is often quite different – an endless process of creating new accounts, remembering passwords, squinting to make out the faded numbers on your credit card, and then filling out a multi-step form… And don’t even get us started on trying to manage your online purchases after you’ve successfully made it through checkout. In short, online shopping can often take the fun out of shopping altogether. But there’s a better way to shop online – Amazon Pay.

Amazon Pay brings the fast, secure and familiar experience of shopping with Amazon to tens of thousands of online stores. That means you can use your existing Amazon account to shop at the sites you love – without the struggle to create, or remember, a login, fill in billing and delivery addresses, and provide payment information.
In fact, there’s a lot more to Amazon Pay that you might not even know about it – check out this Q&A to discover how Amazon Pay works, and how easy it is to enjoy it every day, everywhere.
