Getting paid

Funds are deposited into your Amazon Pay account after you capture payment, and they will be automatically disbursed to your bank account on the next scheduled settlement date.

Disbursements follow our Amazon Pay Reserve Policy. Whenever you add or change your bank account information, we apply a one-time, 3-day hold on disbursements starting the day on which the change takes effect.

For a settlement to take place, you must:

  • Have a positive or zero account balance. Fees, customer refunds and reserve, if any, can affect your balance.
  • Have entered valid information in Seller Central for your U.S.-based bank checking account. For more information, see Adding and managing a bank account.

It usually takes 3 to 5 business days from the time we settle your account and initiate an ACH transfer before the funds arrive in your account.
