• AMAZON: Bunq Mastercard Creditcard not accepted.

Adobe, Apple, Spotify and Netflix all accept Bunq Mastercard Creditcard, Amazon doesn't. Is there a workaround?

    Weet je zeker dat je de Mastercard gebruikt en niet de Maestro? Want bij mij werkt mij Mastercard prima bij Amazon... Heb je ook al een Digicard geprobeerd?

      @thijsoost#253298 Misschien heb jij een personlijke kaart en is dat het verschil… maar ik heb toch echt een MasterCard besteld. 😕

        @New-Purple-Dingo-1028451897#253497 Ik heb inderdaad persoonlijke passen. Heb je je pas al wel geactiveerd? Dit doe je door de pas te openen vanaf de Home pagina en onderaan te kiezen voor 'Activeren'.

          @thijsoost#253501 Volgens Bunq is dit niet nodig voor online. Rest ging ook allemaal goed, ook toevoegen aan Apple Wallet.

            @New-Purple-Dingo-1028451897#253505 Hmm, bijzonder! Dat was het enige wat ik nog kon bedenken. Dan is het misschien slim om contact op te nemen met bunq support, om te vragen of zij weten waarom je kaart niet geaccepteerd wordt door Amazon.

              Hi 🙌,
              I have used my personal bunq Master Card Credit Card with Amazon NL (and also DE and IT) with no issue at all but... on other vendors like Apple in NL I had same issue.. the card would not get validated and could not add it to the account or would fail afterwards when executing payments.

              I contacted the vendor, as I could use the card elsewhere on line, and they confirmed they had issues with 3D verification, which is the latest Credit Cards validations.. and manually they managed to add the card to my account and since then no problems.

              Could be also that Amazon has problems with Personal address using a Business card.. but I would find it very strange.

              I wish you all the best luck 🍀 and hopefully happy Amazon Prime day 👍

                Hi Paul 🙌,
                I just deleted my bunq MasterCard from my Amazon.NL account and tried to re add it.. and it is not working now 👎
                I get error that card is not accepted... weirdly enough.. it is the same card deleted that I used in the past. I tried with one of the digital credit cards.. same issue.
                At this point I contacted Amazon via their services and waiting for confirmation or suggestion on how to proceed.
                Luckily... if you are in NL.. you can execute the payment with iDeal in the meantime.
                Regards

                  Hi Paul and @thijsoost#253507 🙌,
                  FIXED... the issue is with Amazon.NL.
                  I called them up and explained what was the issue (Master Card Credit Card fully working and used in the past but not getting accepted any more when adding it to the account wallet).
                  Turns out A LOT of customers are currently having this issue from The Netherlands and they are working to fix the bug which is on their form ... there is a Java snippet that checks CC number validity from a formal point of view and it is badly coded.
                  The work around for now is to log to Amazon via their German website (amazon.de) with your usual credentials you would use for the Dutch website.. and then get to your Account and add your credit card from the German gateway.
                  As your account is valid for any Amazon localized Amazon store and is unique and shared across different countries, when you log in from the NL site you will see your active Master Card CC just added.
                  WORKED.... not a German speaker here but it is fairly "close" to Dutch ✅
                  Not a bunq 🌈 issue then but just bug 🐞at Amazon side.
                  Have a GREAT Prime Day shopping spread 🤩

                    @Gianguig#253610 Aaah okay! Thanks for the effort and the explanation!

                      @Gianguig#253610 Ga het vanavond meteen proberen! Heb er een paar :)

                        @Gianguig#253610 Thanks for your help, guys! 🇩🇪 Works well. 👍🏻

                          @Gianguig#253610 Thank you so much!

                          Adding the card via a ‘different’ Amazon site worked! 👍
