Accept a payment with Amazon Pay
Learn how to set up your integration with Amazon Pay.
Caution
Stripe automatically presents your customers payment method options by evaluating their currency, payment method restrictions, and other parameters. We recommend that you configure your payment methods from the Stripe Dashboard using the instructions in Accept a payment.
If you want to continue manually configuring the payment methods you present to your customers with Checkout, use this guide. Otherwise, update your integration to configure payment methods in the Dashboard.
Amazon Pay is a single-use payment method where customers are required to authenticate their payment. Customers are redirected from your website or app, authorize the payment with Amazon, then return to your website or app. You get immediate notification of whether the payment succeeded or failed.
Determine compatibility
To support Amazon Pay payments, a Checkout Session must satisfy all of the following conditions:
- Prices for all line items must be in the same currency.
- If you have line items in different currencies, create separate Checkout Sessions for each currency.
