Getting Started for Merchants

Amazon Pay provides payment solutions for your commerce site that lets Amazon customers pay on your website or mobile site using the information already stored in their Amazon accounts.
If your website uses a commerce or shopping cart provider, check out the list of commerce providers that support the Amazon Pay.

We process disbursements daily. It will take between 1 and 2 business days for the payment to be completed and appear in your bank account. A reserve might be applied according to our reserve policy.

To help reduce bad debt and lower your costs, Amazon Pay has fraud detection capabilities, chargeback controls, and risk management processes at no extra cost. For more information, see the Amazon Pay A-to-z Guarantee Policy for Merchants.

Amazon Pay is a service offered to Amazon customers, and you are enabled to use it wherever you see it — whether that is clicking the Amazon Pay button when checking out on your favourite online stores, managing your payment methods in your account on Amazon.co.uk or using Amazon Pay on Alexa*. There are no additional sign-ups or sign-ins. Your transactions are safe and secure, and everything can be tracked in your Amazon account.

If you have an Amazon account, you are ready to start using Amazon Pay wherever you see the Amazon Pay button. No additional registration is necessary, which means you don’t need to create a new account or remember old passwords. Amazon Pay simply uses the information and payment methods stored in your Amazon account. That also includes your address book, so you’ll always your favourite addresses handy no matter where you shop.

Amazon Pay is a way to check out quickly and securely online, and your eligible purchases of physical goods are protected by our A-to-z Guarantee. Breeze through checkout using the information already stored in your Amazon account, or use Alexa* to pay by voice and check on order status.

Go to pay.amazon.co.uk and sign in as a “shopper” using your Amazon username and password. One-time purchases are shown on the “Activity” tab, and subscription agreements are on the “Merchant agreements” tab. You can also view your transactions on Amazon.co.uk. If you are on a desktop, your Amazon Pay transactions can be found under “Amazon Orders” within the Amazon Pay tab or in “Your Account” under “Transactions”. If you are in the Amazon app, all transactions are listed together under “Your Orders” or in “Your Account”.

We do not share your full credit card, debit card or bank account number with sites or charitable organisations that accept Amazon Pay. The merchant only receives information that is required to complete and support your transaction. This information may include your name, email address and delivery address.

The service costs nothing. Using Amazon Pay does not add fees to your purchases on sites and organisations accepting Amazon Pay. We do not add transaction fees, membership fees or any other fees. Your card issuer, however, may charge fees, such as a foreign transaction fee if your card was issued in a country different from the site on which you are shopping, as well as any other fees described in the terms and conditions for your card.

Sites offering Amazon Pay deliver their own orders to you. Also, you can enable Alexa Delivery Notifications through participating merchants to get package tracking alerts. If you think there may be a problem with your order, contact the site or organisation to address the problem. When you use Amazon Pay to check out, your purchases are covered by Amazon Pay’s A-to-z Guarantee.

For a partial list of websites that accept Amazon Pay, see the For Shoppers section of our website. Is the Amazon Pay button not showing as a payment option in your favourite online stores? Let’s make it happen! You can simply email the store or call them with your suggestion to start enjoying the freedom of a checkout experience you know and trust.

At this time, Amazon.co.uk Gift Cards cannot be used as a payment method to place an order using Amazon Pay. Amazon.co.uk Gift Cards can only be used to purchase eligible goods and services on Amazon.co.uk and certain related sites as provided in the Amazon.co.uk Gift Card Terms and Conditions.
