Amazon Pay

Amazon Pay allows Amazon merchants to accept payments with their ShopSite store using Amazon's payment infrastructure.

Configure Amazon account to work with ShopSite.

You will need an Amazon Payments account. If you don't yet have an Amazon Payments account, you can register for one through Amazon. As part of that process, you will also be required to complete a tax interview. Once completed, register a new "Login with Amazon" application through your Seller Central account. Steps to register a new "Login with Amazon" application can be found in the Amazon Pay for ShopSite documentation.

Note:

You will need a privacy policy page to use Amazon Pay. You can see more information on privacy policies in ShopSite here: Privacy Policies in ShopSite.

Two fields from ShopSite's "Amazon Pay" configuration page (Commerce Setup > Payment Setup > Amazon Payments > Configure) will be required to complete application registration with Amazon:

These fields will allow communication from your ShopSite store to Amazon.

Configure ShopSite to use Amazon Pay

After registering your "Login with Amazon" application, ShopSite will need some information from your Amazon Seller Central account (found here) to complete the integration. Those five fields are as follows:

These fields are used to authenticate communication from your ShopSite store with Amazon. Other fields on the configuration page are noted and explained below.

Note:

If you charge sales tax, configure ShopSite to Use Zip Code to determine Tax.

Note:

Amazon Pay receives shipping charge information from ShopSite. If your ShopSite store gets real-time shipping quotes from UPS, FedEx, or USPS, you should also set up a simple shipping table (such as Flat Shipping) to use as an alternate in case of a time-out waiting for the real-time quote provider. Additionally, if you are using Amazon Pay in conjunction with UPS real-time shipping quotes, you should be aware that Amazon will not warn the customer or block an order if the customer enters a P.O. Box for the shipping address. UPS does not ship to P.O. Boxes, and it is the merchant's responsibility to address such situations if they arise.

Note:

You will need to use Amazon's Seller Central to issue refunds or cancel orders.
