Pros and Cons
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Use Amazon Pay as one of the payment method | - As explained earlier, benefit of Amazon Pay is not only limited to payment method. Amazon Pay can also provide shipping address so the buyer can be free from additional input task (of shipping address on merchant site). If merchant limit existing member buyer to use Amazon Pay only as payment method, such buyer will lose an opportunity to use Amazon shipping address. - PayOnly is used for digital contents in principle but this case uses PayOnly for physical goods delivery. - If you use productType=PayOnly despite actual delivery is involved in the order, it is treated as exceptional implementation. Please consult with Amazon Pay team if you want to consider this integration in advance. |
