What is Amazon Pay?

Amazon Pay is a checkout service that allows the hundreds of millions of existing Amazon customers to use their stored payment methods and shipping addresses to buy from third-party merchant websites without creating a new account. It charges a straightforward per-transaction fee with no monthly, setup, or termination fees, and rates automatically decrease for merchants with higher monthly processing volume.

Merchants integrate Amazon Pay into their own checkout flow, and premier partners include Shopify and WooCommerce for easier setup. The service includes Amazon's fraud and chargeback protection, and in some markets supports Buy Now Pay Later options. It is well suited to ecommerce businesses of any size that want to reduce checkout friction by leveraging Amazon's trusted brand and stored customer data.
