Amazon Pay
Amazon Pay is a global digital wallet paving the way for your brand to gain visibility and access to millions of existing Amazon customers.
This payment method boasts a highly secure and seamless checkout experience, leveraging saved shipping and payment information in the shopper's Amazon account. As a result, the shopper can complete their transactions in 3 simple clicks and almost twice as fast as other payment options.
If you are interested in using Amazon Pay, contact your Customer Success Manager. The Customer Success Manager will send setup instructions for Amazon Pay after you sign the Amazon Pay addendum.
How you configure Amazon Pay depends on whether you're using DigitalRiver.js with Elements or Drop-in payments.

Digital River supports Amazon Pay's Express Checkout flow.
The shopper clicks the Amazon Pay Checkout button at checkout, and then they sign in to Amazon Pay to authorize payment and complete their purchase.
Digital River accepts the shopper's billing and shipping addresses from the shopper's Amazon account and populates the checkout or order confirmation page with that information.
Amazon requires that you remove or hide the Edit buttons or links for the billing and shipping addresses on the order confirmation page because Amazon maintains that information. Digital River cannot update an Amazon shopper's billing and shipping information. If needed, the shopper can also update the shipping and billing addresses from their Amazon account before completing actions on Amazon Pay.
