3 Key Things to Note before Amazon Prime Day
【1.Register for an Amazon account in the Region You Want to Make a Purchase】(Click Here for Register Tutorial)
Amazon’s account verification and control measures may be stricter during Prime Day.
Since Amazon accounts registered in Europe and the United States share same account information, we recommend using different email addresses for accounts in different regions (such as the US, UK, Canada, and Australia). This way, if Amazon suddenly suspends one account, it will not affect the login and use of accounts in other regions.
When registering a new account on Amazon US, please use the “Amazon/eBay” address and phone number under “Overseas Warehouse Address > Portland, US (Tax-Free) Warehouse“. For existing Amazon users, please use the the new U.S. address whenever it is necessary. Click here for more precautions.
【2.Start Prime Membership】
There is no tiers for Amazon Prime membership, and users can choose to pay monthly or annually. Prime members will see special pricing on various products, including local Amazon Prime Video, Music Prime and Prime Gaming benefits.
【3.Cancel Prime Membership】
You will be charged if you wish to keep using your Prime membership! Please remember to cancel your Prime membership from your Amazon Member Centre within 30 days.
Important Notice
Recently, we have noticed that infrequently used or newly registered accounts sometimes receive account suspension by Amazon, please pay close attention to the following matters:
- Try register accounts in different regions with different email addresses:
During the Prime Day sale, Amazon’s account review and control may be more stringent, and because Amazon accounts registered in Europe and the US will share the same account information, we recommend that accounts in different regions (e.g., US/UK/CA/AU) can be registered with different emails.
In case of any suspension of one of your Amazon accounts, it will not affect your login and account use in other regions. - Tips on account registration:
For users to create a new account & make orders on Amazon US, you should use our new “Amazon / eBay” address and telephone number for register. For existing Amazon users, please use the the new U.S. address whenever it is necessary. - Tips on credit cards payment:
Please try to use credit card with 2-factor authentication for payment, including but not limited to CVV/SMS verification code. - Tips on payment:
Please use the same warehouse address for both Shipping and Billing address when making a payment.
