Question

How can i pay for stuff on the american amazon if i am from northern ireland and i only hav switch cards?

Answer 1

Hi there - I'm afraid switch is only recognised in Europe so you're out of luck - your only option is to open a credit card account - I would suggest requesting a visa as opposed to a mastercard.

Be warned - items coming from America to Europe (N.I.) have a surcharge of about $40 (£20) of import tax.

But yeah - you cannot use switch/solo/maestro in america. But it is quick and easy to open a credit card account if you are over 18. Everyone is willing to drag you under lol. Just open the account - buy the item then pay off the account and close it.

Thats all I can sugest - or get someone to pay on their credit card for you and pay them.

Answer 2

I don't think you can. Is it not available on amazon.co.uk?

Answer 3

I would think you'd get the best answer by contacting Amazon.  I know their site has a "contact us" option.
