Closing Your Amazon Payments Account
When an Amazon Payments account has been closed, it cannot be reopened. There is no cost for keeping an Amazon Payments account open; you can leave your account dormant as long as you want without incurring any fees.
If you do decide to close your account, do the following steps:
- Withdraw any remaining account balance in your account by initiating a withdrawal to your bank account. (For detailed instructions for withdrawing funds from your account, see Withdrawing Funds.)
- Delete any active payment methods from your account. (For detailed instructions for deleting payment methods, see Deleting Payment Methods.)
- Contact Customer Service to request a full account closure.
If you decide you want to open a new account after closing your old account, you can do that at any time by visiting the Amazon Payments website. Please note that we recommend you use a different email address for the new account.
