Quote: Upcoming Enhancements to your Payments Account

Soon we will be upgrading the Get Paid section of your Seller Account. Below is a preview of the redesign. Please note, these changes are designed to make this feature easier to use. No fees are being changed or updated. Improvements include:

    * A completely new interface that makes it easy to examine your financial data.
    * No longer need the additional log-in step currently required.
    * Quick access to other settlement periods.
    * A set of Quick Filters to quickly refine a list of transactions.
    * Easy drill down to transaction details and order information.

We know that access to your Payments account is key to your business; therefore, we will provide continued access to the current interface while you move to the new one.

Earlier this year, we announced that we would be upgrading the Get Paid section of your Seller Account and previewed new designs.  Thank you for your thoughtful feedback after that announcement.

New Payments pages will go live within the Seller Account beginning on June 24, 2008. This will be a gradual, controlled release over a number of weeks.  Some sellers will see new Payments pages in their accounts before the features are activated for other accounts.  Because access to your Payments account is vital to your business, we want to assure that all historical earnings, fees and settlement data will be available for every seller in a single online interface.

The updated Payments pages will include a new Download feature to replace the current "Export to Excel" function.  We hope that the new downloads provide you with useful payment data in an easy-to-read format.  You'll find more information about the new Payments reports here.

Other improvements include:

    * A new interface that makes it easy to examine your financial data.
    * Quick access that no longer requires an additional log-in step.
    * A set of Quick Filters to refine the list of transactions displayed.
    * Easy drill-down to transaction details and order information.
    * Direct access to Manage Your Orders functions at the order details level.

As you may know, Amazon has been systematically removing the buyer's e-mail address from e-mail communications and from online accounts.  Sellers should use the buyer communication links within the Manage Your Orders section to initiate e-mail contact with transaction partners.
