It’s no secret that Prime members enjoy a variety of shopping benefits. They get an easy, secure checkout, they get their orders shipped in 1–2 days for free, and they get free returns on eligible items. They get all these perks and more when they shop on Amazon.com.

According to a Buy with Prime August 2023 Customer Satisfaction Survey, 70% of surveyed merchants indicate that Buy with Prime increases shopper trust in their brand. The flow-on effect of this increased trust has been greater conversions. Buy with Prime has been shown to increase shopper conversion by 25%, on average.*

Beyond attracting Prime members to their sites and offering a familiar shopping experience trusted by millions, Buy with Prime helps empower merchants to sell more and grow faster.
First, Buy with Prime puts merchants in the driver’s seat regarding control of order and customer information, including email addresses. This not only helps them to build direct relationships with their customers, but also allows them to create customized marketing campaigns to entice customers to discover new products.
