This new service, however, does not imply that Amazon intends to launch its own full-fledged bank; rather, the new service will allow users to pay for online purchases and replenish their accounts without having them connected to a bank card. This will allow Amazon to receive more information about customer transactions and attract customers (especially millennials) who do not want to use bank cards. It will also allow the retailer to save on commissions that, for purchases with other cards, are sent to outside organizations.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, Amazon has begun to position itself more and more as an entire ecosystem, including an online store, a Whole Foods product network, gadget production and a delivery service. In January 2018, the company also launched a supermarket without cash registers.<\/p>\n<div class=\"rpbt_shortcode\">\n\n<div id='rpbt-related-gallery-1' class='gallery related-gallery related-galleryid-9564 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='BFC FinTech Monitor (March-April 2024)'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/bfc-fintech-monitor-march-april-2024\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8cad93ab-2d03-5e5e-6218-68078aa9f3ec1-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-17580\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8cad93ab-2d03-5e5e-6218-68078aa9f3ec1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8cad93ab-2d03-5e5e-6218-68078aa9f3ec1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8cad93ab-2d03-5e5e-6218-68078aa9f3ec1-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8cad93ab-2d03-5e5e-6218-68078aa9f3ec1-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/8cad93ab-2d03-5e5e-6218-68078aa9f3ec1.jpg 1380w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-17580'>\n\t\t\t\tBFC FinTech Monitor (March-April 2024)\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='European SMEs Are Embracing Tech and Digitalization'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/european-smes-are-embracing-tech-and-digitalization\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/c4671a4e-b9cf-ae08-6d03-d0fa69fd99b01-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-17568\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-17568'>\n\t\t\t\tEuropean SMEs Are Embracing Tech and Digitalization\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='Video: digitizing the customer journey in financial services'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/video-digitizing-the-customer-journey-in-financial-services\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/Digitizing-the-Customer-Journey-in-Financial-Services-150x150.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-10156\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-10156'>\n\t\t\t\tVideo: digitizing the customer journey in financial services\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amazon, the world\u2019s largest online retailer, has created special accounts as part of a new banking service.
