Amazon Pay provides Amazon customers with a secure, trusted, and convenient way to sign in and pay for their purchases on your site. Customers use Login with Amazon to share their profile information (name, email address, and zip code) and get access to their shipping address and payment method stored in their Amazon account to complete their purchase.

This guide provides details on enabling automatic payments for subscriptions or other regular payment scenarios by using the API-based integration called Amazon Pay and Login with Amazon, which provides greater flexibility and customization to meet your payment needs.

With the automatic payments feature, customers can pre-authorize payments for future purchases. This enables you to charge a customer's Amazon account on a regular basis for subscriptions and usage-based billing without requiring the customer to authorize a payment each time.

What is Amazon PAY UPI?

Amazon Pay UPI" refers to the feature within the Amazon app that allows you to make payments using the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) system, essentially letting you pay directly from your linked bank account by entering your UPI PIN at checkout, similar to how you would use other UPI apps like Paytm or Google Pay; you can use it to make purchases on Amazon or scan QR codes at stores that accept UPI payments, all through the Amazon app itself.

How does Amazon Pay work?

1: Amazon Pay and Login with Amazon are embedded directly into your existing website, and all of the customer interactions with Amazon Pay and Login with Amazon take place in embedded widgets. Hence, the customer never leaves your site.

2: The product consists of two parts, the Login with Amazon and the Amazon Pay services, which are technically closely related and run on the same platform:

3: Login with Amazon lets your customers become registered users just by signing in with their Amazon login credentials. Amazon Pay then transfers user information to you and lets you create a local customer account. Users that register this way are your customers, and you get the real customer email address and can contact them directly.

4: Amazon Pay represents a checkout that is fully integrated into your site through widgets that Amazon Pay provides you. In this Amazon checkout, which is part of your website, the customer chooses a shipping address and payment method they already have stored in their Amazon user accounts. Regardless of whether or not the customer previously used Login with Amazon, you can offer Amazon Pay as a guest checkout, a registered checkout with implicit account creation, or both. In the latter case, you leave the choice to the customer.

The users may delete the Amazon UPI ID account for various personal reasons; some of the common reasons are listed below:

Unauthorized Access: Keeping the UPI ID active even though you didn't use it makes your account vulnerable to unauthorized access.

Suspicious Activity: If you suddenly lose your phone, tablet or laptop that you use to access amazon pay and you notice some suspicious activity, you should immediately deactivate your account.

Compromised UPI ID: You should immediately unlink or delete your Amazon Pay account to avoid unwanted transactions if your UPI ID is hacked.

Financial security: You can delete your UPI ID from Amazon Pay if you don't want any financial exposure.

App issues: Sometimes, application glitches like slow loading, crashing and freezing may lead to unsafe transactions.

Lack of update: Applications that don't update the customer about their recent activity or transactions. Make users lose trust and unlink their accounts.

Lack of customer service: If the customer service is poor and doesn't meet the user's needs, this negatively impacts the user's t in the application.

Using Amazon Pay and Login with Amazon, your customers can become registered users and check out with a few clicks, saving them from entering a lot of information.

Security tips to keep your Amazon pay account safe

Following the steps below can reduce the risk of deleting of or deleting your Amazon pay UPI ID and securing your account.

Don’t share your UPI pin

It goes without saying that no one else needs to know your UPI pin. Depending on the app, you will be required to create a 4- or 6-digit PIN. Make sure it is not something simple or predictable like your birthdate, and do not share it with anyone under any circumstances. Fraudsters often call or send emails asking for personal information, citing various reasons, but you should always bear in mind that there is no situation where sharing your UPI PIN is necessary.

Always verify beneficiary details while transferring money

It could happen by accident while entering the recipient's phone number that you mistype one number, and hence, the bank account you are transferring money to is not the one you intended to. But fraudsters also figure out ingenious ways to replace the scanners or QR codes to make you transfer your money to somebody else. Either way, a simple glance at the receiver's name that pops up when you add the number or scan the code and confirm it with the intended receiver can ensure that the money does not end up in the wrong account.

You don't need to enter a UPI pin while receiving money

On the pretext of sharing money with you, several scammers ask you for your UPI id and pin. While your ID is required if someone wants to transfer money to you, your UPI pin is not required. Furthermore, if you don't want to share your id either, you can share the phone number linked with the bank account or simply share the QR code linked with your UPI.

Change your UPI pin regularly

As with email passwords and phone lock screen pins, it is a healthy practice to change your UPI pin at regular intervals. While you should pick a set of numbers that are easy to remember, ensure it is not something as basic as your birthdate. Also, avoid saving your UPI pin on your phone because if your phone gets stolen, the miscreant would, have access to both your pin and your UPI app.
