Chose Amazon Pay
We love Amazon Pay and love that it doesn't have to be an either-or situation using these types of checkout options and solutions. We use it, as well as checkout options like Paypal, Affirm, etc. And while those other options get sales and orders, we are starting to see a lot …

We use Affirm with a Woocommerce/Wordpress website and there is a plugin that integrates Affirm for us. We also use a payment method plugin that limits Affirms availability only to products that they support. Generally, we have had a good experience with integration and payments from Affirm to us are consistent and timely. People finance guitars, pedals, and amplifiers and it offers us a way to reach a customer base that may not otherwise purchase from us.

I find it's extremely easy to use Amazon Pay, at least as a consumer. If you have an active Amazon account, and if you have Prime, your features (free shipping) are already connected and ready to use. The advantages are that you don't have to enter new payment info into another new e-commerce site and your Amazon Prime shipping advantages are already built into your options. At least, this has been the case for me the few times I've used it so far - on a couple of different online stores. I also had to cancel an item and the reimbursement went through quickly and easily as well.

  • The experience of using Amazon Pay goes really well if you have paired your Amazon account with an Alexa-enabled device.
  • You don't have to take out your credit card in public and you can simply complete every purchase using Amazon Pay UPI.
  • Amazon Pay later is one of my favorite features that I use to make any purchase on the Amazon website. It allows me to make payments even when I am short on the pocket. And the good part is that you don't have to pay any interest for this pay later amount.
  • In case you have received a gift voucher from your company, you can add it to your account and it will reflect in your Amazon Pay balance.

Usability
Affirm
Easy to use, simple to integrate, especially if you are using Shopify Plus. Putting everything live and active was easy. We did have to do some simple HTML/CSS to make everything look the way that we wanted it to, but that was very easy and something that we did in house. If you can do some simple style work, you won't have any issues at all.

It's very helpful for our company. Amazon Pay is an easy use platform. Through this app, you can solve all the problems like pay electricity bills, employees salaries, and transfer money to anyone.

Amazon Pay gets a rating of 9 because it does not drastically improve the business. That said, it allows us to offer another payment method for users who trust Amazon and will always or only checkout with Amazon Pay. The support team for Amazon Pay is top-notch and will help get all issues resolved.

The User Interface of Amazon Pay is far better than any other payment gateway. Moreover, I have very less payment stuck problems with Amazon pay, and even if any payment gets stuck the issue is resolved within 48 hours of the failed transaction. I like that Amazon Pay offers rewards for every payment done which is a very cool feature that other applications often provide its users.

  • Amazon Pay instantly boosted our sales when I realized that customs prefer to use it over PayPal as just about everyone has an Amazon account and it makes it easier for them to just check out using Amazon Pay.
  • The processing fees while higher than the others we are using are the only downside to our return in using Amazon Pay.
  • Customers use their Amazon logins for their Amazon pay orders and it is as hassle-free as it gets.
