Why has amazon not added bitcoin as one of their payment options?

Are there any risks associated with buying and selling on amazon with bitcoins?

eBay and Amazon will more than likely won't accept Bitcoin , at least not anytime soon. Not only they need a lot of users who request Bitcoin but they also need the ability to manage chargebacks etc... (they can do that with PayPal however It's impossible with Bitcoin).
...

I can't see how that could be a reason. I have done chargebacks with bitcoin. It goes something like this:

me= This hat is too big, I want to return it.

them= Ok

What is so hard about that?

Bitcoin as the global online store like amazon and eBay is not more than just a theoretical, and so there is no a reason for that was to get an accepting by them. about your little example that is true, but it's not about just buying and dealing.

I wish Amazon would just accept Bitcoins already. It's time to step into the now lol. Seriously though why would they make it so we have to buy a gift card with BTC or sell BTC for fiat to buy something off of them? It's just stupidity really.

Amazon has a big audience and if they would accept bitcoin, it would give bitcoin a tremendous boost, However i think they are working on their own kind of crypto currency. The same way like google does but then for their market place.

You're correct about having a large audience but I not agree will giving a tremendous boost because every people is already stay in their convenient payment, the people is visiting amazon is for buying and i think they're already having an enough money and method for buying in them and that is so far think about will trying or moving into bitcoin.

and im pretty sure they are doing some good analysis and data collecting for bitcoins and the users itself so they can determine how huge the volume of users, and if they will see enough users to it i think in this future bitcoin will be implemented at amazon.

In fact, that is just applied to someone is aware with the word of bitcoin.. a lot of them is just passing the word of bitcoin and trying for gaining what the goods they want it. Maybe just a little percentage of people is aware of the word of bitcoin.

That is true and very important. What Bitcoin needs at this momemt is some big companies backing bitcoin up. The larger the better because it will give trust into bitcoin, from use but also from other companies, who will think, Well if Amazon takes it, it must be good.

With google they have milions of costumer, but they allowed us to invest into google products with bitcoin, soo they saw bitcoin potencial and are working with it. I doubt amazon wont allow bitcoin over the next years, namecheap is fully working with it and i doubt they regret those option they had add to their options of payment.

They have larger numbers of user but mostly of them are not bitcoin user or no knowledge about its existince, and so by that maybe they don't see the mass numbers for bitcoin users for now thats why amazon don't see bitcoin is worth to accept with, and im pretty sure they are doing some good analysis and data collecting for bitcoins and the users itself so they can determine how huge the volume of users, and if they will see enough users to it i think in this future bitcoin will be implemented at amazon.

eBay and Amazon will on summit of likely won't admit Bitcoin , at least not anytime soon. Not single-handedly they habit a lot of users who demand Bitcoin but they then dependence the carrying out to run chargebacks etc... (they can reach that when PayPal however It's impossible behind Bitcoin).

If you ache to get conformity of all from Amazon , profitably make a obtain of a talent card from Gyft or any new providers or use Purse.io

I'm not sure why amazon hasn't accepted bitcoin but since they still don't accept bitcoin yet, I'm using purse.io or buy amazon gift cards at a discounted price to shop at amazon.

Think about the amazon will accepting bitcoin or not it's just useless things in this day and why? caused by all of the suggestion will no be heard by the amazon and will be better if discussing with their CS... but for my personally if still there is a way for buying in amazon I will not making a hard things for that.

I think its not useless to suggest amazon to accept bitcoins since bitcoins are great option to be accepted for them but the thing that barricade them for accepting it is the unstability of the price and that is the big minus for business sector including amazon since they can lost money for certain downfall of a price, but also in other hand i think amazon are in deep analyzation for bitcoin since it is thrend in global markets maybe we can't see it accepted by them for now but mayb in the future we can see that they are accepting it if the time is right.

The instability is always been a main reason of the big companies needs think for a twice accepting bitcoin in this time. I hate it but I love it... that's so dilemma for me...but maybe the exit problems are they need for converting the bitcoin payment into the cash in directly but the another problem will appear caused by the every transaction needs a time and the movement of price has always happened on every second.

Amazon is very big company, it is the largest Internet-based retailer in the world. They make a lot of money, and they do business in many countries. Probably they pay big taxes everywhere, and with bitcoins it can be a little tricky. First not all countries have regulation about bitcoin usage, how they will show their profit with bitcoins in country that not have law about it?
I think its not so simply to implement bitcoin such big structure, and that is the only reason why they still didn't do it. But now when New York accepted bitcoin, maybe amazon will offer to people from NY to purchase things with bitcoins, we will see.

Before any auction being taked byt the countries around bitcoin, google were allowing people to purchase some products with bitcoin, with a third company providing the money to them and taking the bitcoin, soo there isnt nothing to do with rules from others countries as a similiar act may be adopted by amazon, and now sure they may allow it a NY and them to all, but its just they wanna to work with, that are some companies providing those service between the costumer and the company.

Where's their incentive? It's hassle. You gotta integrate new systems, promote it and at best you might get 0.1% of sales, probably a bunch less.

They're also a payment processor in their own right and have that token thing so there's some clash of interests too.

This, plus I still can't understand why I need to go out of my way to buy bitcoin when I can just use my debit card on Amazon. It's a hell of a lot simpler for me. Can anyone answer that for me?
