How to use the card

Starting out

You can use your new Amazon.co.uk MasterCard on Amazon.co.uk as soon as you are approved. We'll add the card to your Amazon.co.uk account as a payment method and send you an e-mail message with instructions so you can start shopping right away.

While we make it possible for customers to use the Amazon.co.uk MasterCard for Amazon.co.uk purchases upon approval, you will not receive the complete card number or be able to use the card for purchases outside Amazon.co.uk until your card arrives in the post.

Customers typically receive their Amazon.co.uk MasterCard by post within 7-10 days after being approved. Once you receive and activate the physical card, you may begin using it anywhere MasterCard is accepted.

Make a Payment

Bank of America will send you a monthly statement for the Amazon.co.uk MasterCard by post.  If you wish to view your Amazon.co.uk MasterCard statement online or pay your bill online, register for online banking at www.bankofamerica.co.uk/amazon after you have received your Amazon.co.uk MasterCard by post.
