  • Create and install button code

    Note: Before creating the code for your Buy with Prime button, ensure that you've completed the Buy with Prime setup and selected which products offer Buy with Prime.

    To create the Buy with Prime button code

    Step 1On the merchant console, go to Step 4: Create and install button code.

    Step 2On the Create Buy with Prime button page, add your site details:

    • Enter your store name.
    • Enter the URL for the privacy policy that you show on your site.
    • Enter the URL for your terms & conditions that you show on your site.

     

    Step 3Under Your URLs, enter your site URL with and without the "www" (such as, "example.com"), and then choose Add URL.

    Step 4If you have variations of products that are on the same product detail page, such as different colors and sizes, select the indicator to confirm that you have variations. By selecting variations, the code generator adds a line to your code to make variations available to shoppers.

    Step 5(Optional) Upload your business logo. Shoppers see your business name as part of the branded checkout and order confirmation experience. Upload a logo, or shoppers will see your business name displayed in text. For instructions on logo upload and troubleshooting go to Set up a business logo for Buy with Prime.

    Step 6(Optional) Customize the appearance of the Buy with Prime button. Under Customize your button, select the button type, color, and style that you want. The preview on the right of the page shows you how each option looks.

If you copy the button code into email, text, or other messaging tool, it can add extra characters to the code that might cause the button to not appear. If you're giving someone temporary admin access, remember to remove them later.

  • To install the Buy with Prime button code

    After you create the Buy with Prime button code, you need to add it to the product detail page template on your site.

    The process for adding the Buy with Prime button code depends on how your site is built and the theme you use.

    This content is applicable to standard themes. If you're using a custom theme, go to Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime button.

    Note: When you install the Buy with Prime button code, you need to edit the theme of your ecommerce site, regardless of whether it uses a standard theme or a custom theme. If you later change or update the theme, you may inadvertently change or erase certain features of your ecommerce site theme, including your Buy with Prime button code. If this is the case, you'll see that the Buy with Prime button has disappeared from your site. If you're planning to change or update your theme after you've added the Buy with Prime button code, make sure to copy the button code (and note its location within the theme) so that you can add it back in again.

    Save a copy of your product detail page template and follow the general instructions. After you’ve finished installing the Buy with Prime button code, preview the Buy with Prime button for the products that you've set up on your site. For help installing the button code, find an expert.

    The following table lists the current compatibility of the Buy with Prime button with ecommerce providers.


     

    Add Buy with Prime to your BigCommerce site:

    There are two types of BigCommerce storefronts:

    • BigCommerce stencil theme storefront: This type of storefront incorporates industry best practices in technology, design standards, and SEO. To set up Buy with Prime on a stencil theme storefront, follow the steps in Buy with Prime app for BigCommerce.
    • Headless storefront: This type of storefront allows you to connect to any frontend network, letting you build your own storefront. A headless storefront requires manual deployment of the Buy with Prime button on your site product detail page template. To set up the button manually on a headless storefront, continue with this article.

     

    Step 1Open your BigCommerce dashboard.

    Step 2In the left navigation pane, under Storefront, choose Themes.

    Step 3Create a backup copy of your theme file.

    Step 4From the Advanced menu on your theme, choose Edit Theme Files.

    Step 5In the file tree, open the product detail page template. For example, if you're using the default theme, navigate to Templates > Components > Product View > product-view.html. 

    Note: Depending on your theme, your pathway may be different. For more information, go to Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime button.

    Step 6Paste the Buy with Prime button code below the add to cart or payment options on the page.

    Tip: Try searching for “cart". 

     

    Add Buy with Prime to your Shopify site:

    Step 1Open your Shopify dashboard.

    Step 2Under Sales Channels, choose Online Store, and then Themes.

    Step 3Create a duplicate of the theme file as a backup.

    Step 4Choose the Actions menu on your theme, and then Edit Code.

    Step 5In the code editor, search for the following files and folders in your product detail page. Search for these files one by one to find the correct location to install your button.

    In the Snippets folder:

    • product-form.liquid
    • product-info.liquid

     

    In the sections folder:

    • product-template.liquid
    • product-details.liquid
    • main-product.liquid

     

    In the templates folder:

    • product.liquid

     

    Place your cursor anywhere in the code of the file. Search for the word “payment” or “cart” in any of the preceding files. The most common location is under {{form| payment_button}}. Place the code under a </div> or </button> tag, whichever is the last tag containing the payment button or the add to cart button.

    Tip: Find where you want the Buy with Prime button to appear on your site.
    It can take some time and trial and error to locate the best placement for the button code on your site. To help you understand the page layout and location for the button code, paste "Hello World" directly under where you found "cart" or "add to cart", and then preview your site to see "Hello World" appear. You can then move that "Hello World" around the page, until you find the perfect location for the button.
    After "Hello World" appears where you want the Buy with Prime button to appear, replace "Hello World" with the button code from the merchant portal.

    Note: Depending on your theme, your pathway may be different. For more information, go to Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime button.

     

    Step 6Paste the Buy with Prime button code.

    Step 7Choose Preview. If the Buy with Prime button doesn’t appear where you expect it to, you can copy the code somewhere else in the file or choose Older versions to go back to a previous version.

    Simplified method to add Buy with Prime to your Shopify site:

    Note: This install method might not work for all themes. If you still can't install the Buy with Prime button code, contact merchant support.

    Step 1Open your Shopify dashboard.

    Step 2Choose Sales Channels, Online Store, Themes, and then Customize.

    Step 3In the Shopify designer, choose Default Product or Product from the menu.

    Step 4From the side menu, choose the section that contains the Add to Cart or Purchase buttons.

    Step 7From the side menu, drag the new Custom Liquid block under the Add to cart buttons.

    Congratulations! You have installed the Buy with Prime button on your Shopify site.

    If you're still experiencing issues, go to Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime button.

     

    Add Buy with Prime to your WooCommerce site:

    Note: Since you're adding the Buy with Prime button code as Hypertext Preprocessor (PHP) code,  you don’t need to edit your theme’s functions.php file or reinstall the PHP code when you make changes to your theme.

    To install the PHP code generated in the Buy with Prime merchant console, follow these steps:

    Step 1Open your WooCommerce or WordPress cPane dashboard.

    Step 2Install the WPCode Lite Plugin, previously known as WPCode. This plugin helps to insert headers, footers, and code.

    Note: If you already have the WPCode Lite Plugin installed, skip to Step 8. If you don’t have the WPCode Lite Plugin, go to Step 3.

    Step 3On the Plugins section in your WordPress dashboard, choose Add New.

    Step 4In the “Search Plugins” field, enter “WPCode Lite”, and then choose Search. 

    Step 5Install the Plugin, and choose Active. 

    Step 6A new link called Code Snippets appears on your dashboard side menu. Click on Code Snippets.

    Step 7Choose Add New. 

    Step 8Choose Add Your Custom Code (New Snippet). 

    Note: The WPCode Lite Plugin should appear in the first box on the left side.

    Step 9Enter the following information:

    • Name:  Buy with Prime.
    • Code Type - HTML Snippet:  select the drop down to choose PHP Snippet.
    • Code Preview box: Add the following code.

     

    add_action( 'woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form', 'QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart' );
function QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart () {
global $product;
?>

    Step 10Go to the Merchant Console, and then locate the Buy with Prime button code. 

    Step 11Copy the code lines 2 through 8, which excludes the first line and the last line.   

    Step 12Go to the Buy with Prime button code on your site, and then paste the code that you copied in step 14 on line 5 within the Buy with Prime button code on your site.   

    Step 13Move to line 12 in the Buy with Prime button code on your site, and then copy and paste the following code: 

    <?php
}

    The final code will look as follows:

     <?php

    add_action( 'woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form', 'QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart' );

    function QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart () {

        global $product;

        ?>

    <script async fetchpriority='high' src='https://code.buywithprime.amazon.com/bwp.js'></script>

    <div

        id="amzn-buy-now"

        data-site-id="pk96aw05da"

        data-widget-id="w-952cc5Z3yn8c7PzuhiZTXa"

        data-sku="<?php echo $product->get_sku(); ?>"

    ></div>

      <?php

    }

    Step 14After adding the code, choose Active, and then Update at the top right corner of the screen.   

    The Buy with Prime button appears on the products you activated with Buy with Prime.

    Note: If you don't see the Buy with Prime button on your site, clear your WooCommerce cache and cookies.

    Tip: The code you  pasted on your site points to the woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form page hook as marked in bold in the following example:

    <?php
add_action( 'woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form', 'QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart' );
function QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart () {
global $product;
?>

    There are additional WooCommerce product page hooks that you can use instead of woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_form. For example, you can use a different page hook, such as: woocommerce_before_add_to_cart_button  or woocommerce_product_meta_start to install the Buy with Prime button near your Add to Cart button.

    To use a different web hook, modify the Buy with Prime button code. The following code shows the code using the woocommerce_product_meta_start page hook: 

    <?php
add_action( 'woocommerce_product_meta_start', 'QL_add_text_above_description_form' );
function QL_add_text_above_description_form() {
global $product;
?>

    To learn more about where to place the Buy with Prime button code on your site based on page hooks, go to WooCommerce visual hook display.

     

    Simplified method to add Buy with Prime to WooCommerce sites

    If your store is hosted on WordPress, use the following instructions to install the Buy with Prime button code.

    Step 1From your WordPress admin portal, choose Appearance, and then Theme File Editor.

    Step 2On the side file hierarchy find the WooCommerce template-functions.php file. For example: inc > WooCommerce > THEME-WooCommerce-template-functions.php (your path might differ).

    Step 3At the end of the file, install the following code.

    Add_action( 'woocommerce_after_add_to_cart_button', 'QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart' );

    function QL_add_text_under_add_to_cart () {

       global $product;

       ?>

       <script async fetchpriority="high" src="https://code.buywithprime.amazon.com/bwp.js"></script>

       <div

          id='amzn-buy-now'

          data-site-id="<your site id>"

          data-widget-id="<your button id>"

          data-sku='<?php echo $product->get_sku(); ?>'

       ></div>

    <?php

    }

    This code automatically installs the button code under the Add to Cart button.

    If you're having trouble with this install, replace the <div> tag with <div "Hello World"> to help verify that it's accurately installing the HTML code under the Add to cart button. For example:

    <div

         "Hello World"

    ></div>

    Congratulations! You have installed the Buy with Prime button on your WooCommerce site.

    If you're still experiencing issues, go to Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime button.

    To add Buy with Prime to another ecommerce provider or custom site:

    Step 1Locate where the product detail page template file is stored for your site. 

    Step 2Identify the naming convention of the SKU identifier in that template (for example, "product.sku").

    Step 3In the Buy with Prime button code, find the line: data-sku="{{product.sku}}". Replace product.sku with the naming convention of the SKU identifier from your site template from step 2.

    Step 4Paste the Buy with Prime button code below the add to cart or payment options on the page.

    Step 5Try previewing your site before publishing the changes. Note: The Buy with Prime button only renders on the top-level domain you entered when creating the button. If your testing environment loads on a different domain, the button won't render.
     

    Tip: If you've completed the steps to set up Buy with Prime and have pasted the Buy with Prime button code into the product detail page template of your site, go to your site's product detail pages to confirm the Buy with Prime button is rendering correctly. For troubleshooting help, go to Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime Button.

  • Troubleshoot your Buy with Prime button

    I'm having issues adding the Buy with Prime button to my site

    The process for adding the Buy with Prime button code to your site depends on how your ecommerce site is built, and the theme you use. If you're using a custom theme, or otherwise having issues with adding the button code to your site, use the following guidance. If you're still experiencing issues, contact your sales support representative for assistance.

    Troubleshooting tips


    Tip 1: Find the right file to use for the button code.

    Based on the different themes or site builds, it might not be obvious which file to use for inserting the button code in your site.

    When you open a file, look for HTML tags such as <div>, <p>, or <span>. If you don't see HTML tags, it's usually a layout file, and not the correct location for adding the button code. If you can't find the correct file, try searching for the following key terms:

    • product-view
    • product-template
    • product-form
    • product
    • add-to-cart
    • product-details
    • product-info
       

    Tip 2: Find the right section within the file to insert the button code.

    Look for the following names or patterns that might help you find what section to use within the file for inserting the button code:

    • cart
    • add to cart
    • data-cart
    • purchase
    • payment
       

    Tip 3: Find where you want the Buy with Prime button to appear on your site.

    It can take some time and trial and error to locate the best placement for the button code on your site. To help you understand the page layout and location for the button code, try pasting "<h2>Hello World</h2>" onto the page, and then preview your site so that you can see where "Hello World" appears. You can then move that "Hello World" around the page, until you find the perfect location for the button.

    After "Hello World" appears where you want the Buy with Prime button to appear, replace "<h2>Hello World</h2>" with the button code from the merchant portal.
     

    Tip 4: Fix any spacing issues

    If the Buy with Prime button appears too close to other elements on your site, you can adjust the padding surrounding the button. For example, edit your button code by adding the following padding style (in bold):

    <div
id="amzn-buy-now"
data-site-id="<your site id>"
"data-widget-id="<your button id>"
data-sku="product.sku"
style="padding:5px;"
></div>

    Place this padding code right before the <beginning of Buy with Prime code>. Make sure the div of the other payment buttons is closed out before adding this code, otherwise it might not move the button down at all. If this code doesn't work, you can add <br>; <p> right under the <beginning of Buy with Prime code> text.

    This padding style creates a small buffer on all sides of the button. You can create a larger or smaller buffer based on your site design. To adjust the buffer, increase or decrease the number "5" in the preceding sample code.

    You can create padding on specific sides of the button, instead of padding all sides. To pad specific sides, replace "padding" in the preceding sample code with either "padding-top," "padding-bottom," "padding-left," or "padding-right."  You can combine padding styles to have more control. For example: "padding-top: 5px;padding-left: 2px".

     

    Tip 5: Fix any alignment issues

    If the Buy with Prime button isn't aligned correctly with other site elements, you can center the button by wrapping the button code inside another "<div>" tag, and then using the "display:flexbox" style.

    In the following example, notice the additional wrapper "<div>" tag (in bold) that surrounds the button code. We've also given it a unique color, "background-color: pink," so that when we're viewing it on the screen, we can see what we're working with:

    <div

        id="bwp-wrapper"

        style="background-color: pink; width: 100%; display:flexbox; align-content: center">

        <div

        id="amzn-buy-now"

        data-site-id="<your site id> "

        "data-widget-id="<your button id>"

        data-sku="product.sku"

        ></div>

    </div>
  

    After you have your wrapper "<div>" tag in place, and the unique color set, you can check the screen, and notice a large pink box, with the button centered within it.

    Note: This test might rearrange much of the page. You can adjust the "width" and "align-content" styles for the wrapper "<div>" until the Buy with Prime button is aligned how you want it. For more help with aligning content, go to Flexbox cheat sheet. After the button is aligned correctly, remove the "background-color" style.
     

    Tip 6: Replace button code after changing or updating your theme

    To install the Buy with Prime button code, you need to edit the theme of your ecommerce site, regardless of whether it uses a standard theme or a custom theme. If you later change or update the theme, you may inadvertently change or erase certain features of your ecommerce site theme, including your Buy with Prime button code. If this is the case, you'll see that the Buy with Prime button has disappeared from your site.

    If you're planning to change or update your theme after you've added the Buy with Prime button code, make sure to copy the button code (and note its location within the theme) so that you can add it back in again.
     

    Tip 7: Identify a status code on your site

    Step 1Open your product detail page.

    Step 2Open the context (right-click) menu for the page, and then choose Inspect.

    Step 3In the Web Developer Tools pane, select the Console tab.

    Step 4Press Ctrl+F or Cmd+F and search for “STATUS_CODE”.

    The console displays the status code.

    Note: If you are using Firefox as your browser, go to the Console tab, and then select the Logs tab.
