Isn't this automatically done when they validate the card? | Your right on the money. However different parts of the Amazon site utilise different checks.
So if you were a buyer, the card would be thoroughly checked and verified.
If your selling, and simply paying your monthly fees, their just interested in checking your card has sufficient balance and is active. Name, address etc. are not checked.
Your fees are taken from sales at the end of your billing cycle, where there isn't a sufficient balance from sales, it gets drawn from your card.
Hope that answers your question.
