Amazon Pay Payment Provider
Amazon Pay makes it simple for hundreds of millions of customers around the globe to pay for products and services using the information already stored in their Amazon accounts. It’s a familiar buying experience from a brand customers know and trust.
Installation & Configuration
1. Resolve dependencies
This module will use "The official Amazon Pay Python SDK" which should be installed into host system before module use.
It might be installed using PyPI, for example:
$ pip install amazon_pay
2. Register on Amazon Pay
To configure payment provider module you need to perform the registration steps described here for get values of:
- Merchant ID (seller ID)
- MWS Access Key and MWS Secret Key
- Client ID
3. Install payment provider module in Odoo
4. Configure Amazon Pay Payment Provider
Go to payment provider configuration form and set value of Merchant ID, MWS Access Key, MWS Secret Key and Client ID.
You should also define correct Region value. It is important for load correct Amazon Widgets scripts (Amazon will display runtime error if region incorrect). So, if you not sure with your region value - try to set NA region (this is default value).
There is an additional option on payment provider form which should be explained:
If option named "Close order reference after capture" is checked, then Amazon order reference will be closed after authorization will be captured. Normally, this option should be always TRUE (see this for details).
Keep in mind, as Amazon says, the best practice recommendation: all API calls should be submitted to the Sandbox for test purposes before being moved live to your production systems.
Key points of usage
Amazon Pay supports separate authorization feature, so you can set option "Capture Amount Manually" to TRUE for capture (or void) transactions manually.
Also, you should know that module can store all communication information about requests to Amazon Pay (and responses) per each transaction if "Write Transaction Logs" option of provider checked (it's checked by default). You can see this information table in developer mode on transaction form (if you have administrative rights).
Please note next: modern browsers are care about a lot security, so they can block popup windows by default and as a result your customer may have a trouble with login to their Amazon Pay wallet because of blocking login popup window. You can solve this problem using "Authorize Mode" option at "Configuration" tab of Amazon Pay payment provider:
- Auto: popup mode by default, but force non-popup mode for Mozilla browsers.
- Popup: authorize user using popup window.
- Non-Popup: authorize user with redirect.
Limitations
- Only one active Amazon Pay payment provider configuration per company supported now.
- This module provides one-time only payments' functionality with Amazon Pay, without recurring payments or tokens.
- Only synchronous Authorization API calls supported now (you can see this one for details).
- Handling Instant Payment Notification (IPN) messages not yet implemented.

Thank you
