Can PayPal be used on Amazon

PayPal cannot be used directly on Amazon, because Amazon does not accept PayPal as a payment option at checkout, but PayPal funds can still be spent there indirectly.

A short PayPal overview of the indirect routes to paying on Amazon covers two options:

  • PayPal Debit Card: A physical or virtual PayPal Debit Card, or the PayPal Business Debit Mastercard, draws money directly from your PayPal balance. You add its card number to your Amazon wallet the same way you would add any Mastercard or Visa card.
  • Amazon gift cards: Use your PayPal account to buy a digital Amazon gift card from a third-party retail site that accepts PayPal, then redeem the code in your Amazon account to pay for purchases.

Neither route adds PayPal as a checkout option on Amazon itself. If you choose the gift card method, buy the card from a reputable retailer before redeeming it.
