Noob with Noob question about Amazon buyer acount for Prime
 

Greetings all,

I want to create a new Amazon Prime buyer account with a VCC to input into the billing details. And had a few questions about the process. I have read some threads of popular VCC sellers here and even PM'd a couple regarding this. One of theme said they could help and one said they could not. The one that said he could help wants to sell me an Amazon AVS and that Amazon will not accept all "bin" only "spl avs" . I had a few questions that I would hope the good people of this forum could assist me with as I try and make a determination.

1. Whats the difference between AVS and VCC, and why would I need a Amazon AVS for this process?
2. If I get an AVS, does it comes with a VCC?
3. What billing address am I required to input for the AVS/VCC? Is one provided or do I make one up? I can't use my current address because it is attached to an existing buyer account of mine.
4.What is "bin", what is "spl avs"
4. Can anyone recommend a reputable service?

I am a USA resident. Many thanks in advance for your assistance.

1. Whats the difference between AVS and VCC, and why would I need a Amazon AVS for this process?

AVS and VCC are the same thing in that they are both credit card alternatives. AVS means that the acrs will fully address verify. Most VCC's only ZIP CODE verify. Amazon has banned most gift cards and VCC's. So the AVS cards are your best option.

2. If I get an AVS, does it comes with a VCC?

They are the same thing, with the exception of address verification.

3. What billing address am I required to input for the AVS/VCC? Is one provided or do I make one up? I can't use my current address because it is attached to an existing buyer account of mine.

Either the person selling you the card will get the address to input or you will register the card yourself. Usually, you can use any address you like. That is the advantage of these cards.

4.What is "bin", what is "spl avs"

BIN refers to the first six digits of a credit card number. It identifies the issuing bank and the industry. I have never heard of "SPL AVS" but apparently it means the card will address verify.

4. Can anyone recommend a reputable service?

I will send you a PM. I do not sell these cards, but I DO know someone that has working cards for Amazon.

Oh, I wanted to mention, but forgot... If you are using Amazon Prime to dropship to your customers, at some point Amazon will cut you off. They don't like it - although you would think they are HAPPY to have the business, they are not. They believe that everyone in the world is THEIR customer and no other businesses should exist.
