US Shopify merchants to soon offer Buy with Prime at Checkout

Amazon recently announced the launch of the Buy with Prime app for Shopify, a new app integration that makes it easy for merchants to offer Buy with Prime on their Shopify stores. Buy with Prime is an Amazon DTC offering that helps merchants grow their ecommerce businesses on their own websites by leveraging Amazon's fulfillment network, wallet, and the trusted experience of Prime.

“We’ve been thrilled with the feedback merchants have shared about Buy with Prime, including the increased shopper conversion and new shopper acquisition,” said Peter Larsen, Amazon vice president of Buy with Prime. “The build of this app was a collaboration with Shopify, and we’re excited to help merchants not only grow their businesses, but also save time and resources—all while giving Prime members even more places to enjoy their shopping benefits.”

The Buy with Prime app for Shopify is natively integrated into Shopify's Checkout and admin, which makes it easy for merchants to manage their Buy with Prime orders and promotions. Merchants can also use the app to select items from their Amazon inventory to be part of their Buy with Prime product catalog on Shopify.

“Our merchants care deeply about choice, and this new app will give them a new way to meet their customers where they are,” said Daniel Debow, Shopify vice president of product partnerships. “More choice means more ways for our merchants to succeed, and that’s why we’re excited to collaborate with Amazon on the Buy with Prime app for Shopify.”

The app is currently available to select Shopify merchants by invitation only, but it will be available to all U.S.-based Shopify merchants who are already using or want to use Amazon's fulfillment network by the end of September 2023.

Why should you use the Buy with Prime app for Shopify?
