Please note that certain Health Savings Accounts (HSA) cards cannot be registered as Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) or HSA cards with Amazon but can still be used if they're registered as credit cards. If you register your HSA card as a credit card, you'll be responsible for ensuring the card is used only for eligible products. HSA cards that are registered as credit cards do not automatically restrict the types of products you can purchase with the card. Purchasing ineligible products or services with the card may require you to report them and pay additional taxes. Contact your plan administrator or employer for more information.
It's also important to note that updating a payment method in your Amazon Payments won't change the payment method on any open orders you've placed. To change the payment method for an open order, you need to go to Change Your Order Information. To manage payment methods, select Your Payments in Your Account. To add a payment method, select the Add a payment method link under the category that you want to add. To edit or remove a payment method, select the card that you wish to edit on the left side of the page. The card opens in the center of the page. Select Edit under the card name. You can update your billing address, select a default card, update card details or remove the card from your account. Select Remove from wallet to remove the card from your account. Follow the on-screen instructions. In some instances, card issuers may provide Amazon with updated payment card details when re-issuing cards.

How To Open A Amazon Prime Now Account?
To open an account on Amazon Prime Now, follow these steps:
- Navigate to the Amazon Prime page.
- Sign in to an existing Amazon account or create a new one by clicking the "Hello, Sign in" button in the top-right. If creating a new account, click "Create your Amazon account" when prompted with a login.
- Choose a Prime plan. Amazon offers several subscription options as part of its Prime service. The first gives access to Prime Video, which is perfect if that's all you're after and at $8 a month. However, if you want access to everything else, you'll need to opt for the Prime Monthly or Prime Annual services, which is $13 a month or $120 for the year. Students and those with a valid EBT or Medicaid card have the advantage of a much longer trial period and cheaper rates.
- Take advantage of the free trial. Whichever Prime plan you opt for, you're given a 30 day free trial period (or six months if you're a student). Click the orange, "Try Prime" button. You'll then be asked to sign in if you haven't already or confirm your credentials if you have.
- Pick a payment method. If you have a credit or debit card linked to your Amazon account, you'll be asked to pick which one you want the monthly subscription fees to be taken from. If you haven't, you'll need to add one, which will be charged monthly or yearly, depending on what plan you've chosen.
- Confirm your address. You'll also be asked which billing address to use for your Prime subscription. Like the payment options, if you have one already twinned with your account you can simply pick one, or alternatively, add a new one as you would when making a standard order on the site.

Amazon Prime Now Return Policy?
The Amazon Prime Now return policy is a bit stricter than the regular Amazon return policy. Customers need to file a return request within ten days of receiving a product. If a request is filed after the ten-day period, a refund may still be received but not the full price of it. This depends on individual sellers.
Most items purchased with an Amazon Prime account have a 30-day return window. Some products may vary based on product category or seller. Items shipped from Amazon.com, including Amazon Warehouse, can be returned within 30 days of delivery, with some exceptions.
For products purchased from the Amazon Global Store, there are specific return policies. If the seller's listing is eligible for Amazon Prime, it will be subject to the same return policies as items fulfilled by Amazon.com.
If an item that is expected to be returned is not sent back, the customer will be charged. If the item has already been sent back and the customer has received an email asking to return it or has been charged, the charge will be reversed as soon as the return is processed.
To prevent and detect fraud and abuse, in some circumstances Amazon may require additional information and documentation from the customer, such as a government-issued photo identification, to consider processing a return or providing a refund or replacement.
Please note that this information is subject to change and it's always a good idea to check the latest return policy on the Amazon website.
