Adding and managing a bank account

To receive disbursements from Amazon Pay, you have to set up a bank account based in the same country you registered your Amazon Payments merchant account in. For example, for an account registered in Germany, only a German (EUR) bank account is accepted and for an account registered within the UK, only a UK (GBP) bank account is accepted.

Note: If your business is registered in EU, the bank account holder can only be the registered business name. If your business is registered in the UK, the bank account holder can be either the registered business name or the business owner name.
