Checkout by Amazon Now Available in Germany

Following the recent release in the UK, we are happy to announce that Checkout by Amazon is now available to retailers in Germany. Online retailers in Germany can now integrate with Checkout by Amazon to offer customers the trusted Amazon checkout experience. Customers can access their Amazon address book and payment information directly on the retailer's web site and complete purchases securely and conveniently without leaving the retailer's web site.

Among the first retailers in Germany to integrate Checkout by Amazon are Thomann Cyberstore, Europe's largest online store for musical instruments, studio gear, lighting, and PA equipment, and HOH Home of Hardware, one of Germany's leading specialized online shops for information technology, telecommunications and home entertainment.

"Our customers can enjoy the trusted and convenient Amazon payment solutions right on our site. Customers can simply choose the delivery addresses and bank information from their Amazon account and Thomann will handle the rest. It is as easy as it sounds," said Sven Schoderböck, Head of Marketing at Thomann Cyberstore. "Plus, Checkout by Amazon is flexible and easy to integrate into our existing payment infrastructure."

"While our existing customers will appreciate this secure and reliable payment solution, we are certain that working with Checkout by Amazon in our store will also attract new customers", said Christine Maier, Online Marketing Manager at HOH Home of Hardware. "Checkout by Amazon is like a seal of quality to customers."

Additional merchants launching with Checkout by Amazon include Quickshopping.de, Medimops.de, Beamershop24.net, UhrCenter.de and Careshop.de and many more. Checkout by Amazon is also working with providers of online shop-systems and integrators like XT Commerce, Best IT and DreamRobot.
