Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

Is having a normal credit card with a line of credit an absolute must for selling on Amazon?


Can you use debit cards instead? :deadhorse:

Debit or Credit card is fine

You just need to pay the first month fees and then have enough balance to cover the $1-2 test charges every time there is a disbursement

I dont think these $1 test charges are ever submitted,they are merely authorising.
My gas station does that

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

I think Amazon changed, I can't bypass the registration process without adding a valid credit card and they are not accepting pre-paid ones either!!

So in short, no credit card --> no Amazon account :-/

Yes $1-$2 test charges ever disbursement

Goes back to card in 1-5 business days

Its been like this forever, you need a debit or credit card when registering

You could pick up a VCC from the service section on aspkin too

You can't enter the details of a debit card, only a credit card and they are not accepting prepaid ones at all.

You can use debit or credit cards prepaid cards still works but very rear to get them

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

I think a prepaid credit card or a debit card will work for only sometime before they get busted and will eventually result in your account getting frozen.

I have read many many seller central forums discussions about this so far and I think a chargable credit card is definitely a must :-/


This is terribly frustrating, getting a credit card in Germany is not as easy as it is in the US. Secured credit cards don't even exist here!!

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

as said above need good quality card and which dont cause any issue

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

It will be like a gamble for me to be honest, if they end up freezing my account until I add a new credit card that will be a financial disaster for me.

I am now considering looking for banks outside Germany to get a credit card!!!

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

In order to sell on Amazon you do need to have a valid credit card or debit card registered to your seller account. Your debit card must be associated with one of these major credit card companies: Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, JCB, or Diner's Club

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

This is cheap talk on the part of Amazon, even if a debit card is initially accepted during registration, when that debit card expires --> Amazon won't accept debit cards ever again from you and if you can't add a valid credit card (with line of credit), you will be locked out of your account for good.

Wrong info

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

you are totally wrong.
many people doing amazon for a long long time, listen to them and learn some.

Re: Can I sell on Amazon without a credit card?!!
 

I think credit card companies have updated the software and it is now possible for Amazon to figure out which card is credit and which is debit. I have seen a lot of sellers talking about this on Amazon seller forums and stating debit cards won't work anymore on Amazon. I also contacted jeff@amazon.com and asked about this, they made it very clear that the card must be "Internationally chargable credit card".
