Amazon still not accepting bitcoin as payment but they are working with bitcoin as option for payment. You can still buy digital gift cards using bitcoin as payment.
Hope it will be available soon so many people will benefit and also establishments which accepting bitcoins.

This thing is not powered by Amazon officially. people can buy amazon gift card with bitcoin because of those amazon re-sellers who accept bitcoin and re sell amazon gift cards. these peoples are totally individual and Amazon not involved in them.

maybe Amazon officially accept bitcoin in future. but to be very honest it is hard. because Amazon is just fine with his own payment source.

This is true. You can buy in amazon using bitcoin through indirect buying. A lot of user here are offering gift card of amazon in exchange of bitcoin. I dont have any idea where the sellers get there gift cards. Cheesy

Anyone here knows the trick? Hahaha

Can't see it happening until bitcoin becomes really popular and they start receiving thousands of requests / questions about it.

Who said Bro. I have friend who use to purchase in amazon using the discount from purse.io get some price reductions more than 15%. Even you could try for it and use amazon with discounts...

Maybe they are afraid of bitcoins flactuatiom and seriously that can be a big loss for them if they risk to accept bitcoin as their payment processor, but who knows maybe in the future they will truly accept it since the market of bitcoins are increasing maybe they are doing a deep analysis for that so they cannot do a wrong move to their business if bitcoins will gone to failure.

flactuation really is the big barricade for bitcoin to be accepted not only on.amazon but also in different online and local store.

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.

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).

If you want to buy anything from Amazon , simply buy a gift card from Gyft or any other providers or use Purse.io

The important reason for that because the price of bitcoin is volatility and caused it, the amazon is not interesting to accept bitcoin, they will feeling difficult to control their price in bitcoin form.
