Amazon shoppers will be able to purchase products online and through its mobile app using Venmo for the first time just ahead of the holiday shopping season.
Starting Tuesday, some Amazon customers will be able to pay with Venmo for purchases on Amazon.com and its mobile shopping app, the Seattle-based shopping giant announced. The move underscores the company's acceptance of digital transactions and commitment to providing customers with more flexible payment solutions, especially ahead of the holiday shopping season.
In 2021, for instance, Amazon partnered with Affirm, offering its first pay-over-time option. The payment option was also tested out just ahead of the 2021 holiday season with select shoppers. This year, the Venmo payment service will roll out to all U.S. customers by Black Friday, Amazon said. In order to enable to service, customers will have to add their Venmo account as a payment method to their Amazon account. Then, customers will be able to use the payment option during checkout or even set Venmo as the default payment option, Amazon said.
The American mobile payment service, which is owned by PayPal, was founded in 2009 and already has nearly 90 million users.
