Deposit account different from "charge" visa account
 

Hi guys

I would like to create an amazon seller account for a company(outside US) which has a bank account with a visa card attached to it. I want to use that visa card for the "charge method" ,but want to know if I can use another bank account(of a person) for the "deposit method"(receiving money). Can there be any problem ?

Thanks.

ps.: the person was not banned before

No problem,

You can use a card linked to any bank account you want but it will need to pass the AVS checks.

Hey TTM, thanks for the reply.

Could you please elaborate on that ? I find it weird that you can use a visa attached to one bank account(like LLC) but use a personal account to receive money(which by the way that person is not the owner of the LLC).

The AVS check wouldn't be any problem because it s a legit visa card attached to bank account, but don't want money to be received on that account,instead to be deposited to another account (which belongs to a person).

That's fine

Just because you link a card does not mean you have to link the bank account that card is attached to.

You can link whatever card you want so long as it passes the AVS and then link whatever bank account you want in order to withdraw funds.

I see.

Do Amazon check regularly for the validity of the visa card ? I mean for example the visa card is valid until 2019 but I close the bank account with that visa on 2016, will amazon know that ?

Does it matter if the visa card attached to the bank account of the company is issued from a country and the deposit bank account is in another country ?

Amazon are know for charging the card now and then to make sure its still active.

Re: Deposit account different from "charge" visa account
 

Should I be prepared for amazon asking me(as protocol perhaps) why the owner of the bank account(used for deposit) is different than the registered name for the seller account(LLC) ?

Thanks.

Amazon will not be able to see that the name is different.

Re: Deposit account different from "charge" visa account
 

I'm not so sure about it ,as I had a previous account and I had to provide a name for the bank account , that's why I'm asking

Eurozone bank account:
Bank Identifier Code + International Bank Account Number + Bank Account Holder Name

You can give them a stealth name and Amazon will not know any difference.

What if, card doesent have AVS ?

Re: Deposit account different from "charge" visa account
 

All real plastic cards will need to pass the AVS check

Re: Deposit account different from "charge" visa account
 

You credit/debit card does not need to linked to the deposit account. The deposit account can use any name as names are not used by banks crediting for inward funds, UK its sort codes and account number, US, routing number and account number.

Hi,
Did it worked for you?
Did you succeed to register in Amazon a different "charge method" with a different "deposit method" ?
