Not the case with ink bold. Different numbers-same account.

Amex AU's have a different card number and security code. Why does Amazon care anyways? :confused:

Should have mentioned it is Chase personal AUs that share the same account information.

I am planing only to do A(mine) ---> B.

I already had an Amazon A/C and activated an Amazon payments.
I didn't register any bank A/C but it looks I can send money with CC.
Do I( as A) need to register my checking A/C?

Also, B registered/got verified only the checking A/C.
Does B need to register CC for just withdrawing money to the checking A/C?

out of curiosity do all the names on the credit cards match the names on the accounts? i'm trying to help a family member meet minimum spend and was going to add their card to my account but i'm not an AU. they don't have an AP account so the card hasn't been previously registered to any account. i would likely just add their card with their name on my account - not sure if that would work? thanks! :)

It would most likely work but increases the chance of being shut down. How much does the chance increase? One will never know...

you're right probably not worth the risk. i should be added as an AU if i want to add the card to my account. thanks for the input! :)

- If you don't register your checking A/C, the send/receive limit (per calendar month) is $500 for both credit card or bank transfer

-If you register your checking A/C, the send/receive limit is $1000 for credit card and unlimited for bank transfer. Under the $1000 for credit card transfer, there is no fee for you, nor the recipient. After the $1000, I have no idea, probably some fee.

- I don't know if B needs to register a CC in order to withdraw to bank account or not. B can register a debit card just incase.

Yes, shopping on amazon.com with different CCs won't raise flags (unless their is a lot of weird transactions going on), but when it comes to PayPal and Amazon Payments, there are tons of sharks swimming around accounts waiting to bite anyone remotely trying to abuse anything. ESPECIALLY since amazon is the only system that does not charge a credit card fee to send and receive.

Make sure to ONLY send ONE WAY (A --> B), and once they have received it, never have that same person send u any type of money back to your Amazon account, even from a different credit card or their bank account.

If I recall it correctly, B needs to register a credit/debit card in order to receive payments.

They can always receive, but to accept the payment they'll have to register a card.

thanks for the info - definitely want to avoid the sharks/cardinals! :)

I use the myg--tc--ds--e MC and Visa GC...never have any trouble processing the full 500 via AP. I haven't used any special tricks when adding the card info to avoid a $1 auth charge.

For years I have been going my CC -> My AP -> friends AP -> Cash.

Would it be "safe" for that friend to also start sending me the same in reverse, from the same pair of accounts? Or is this a no-no.

(I want to double my spoils, and I added him as an AU on my account).

Personally, and this is just me, I wouldn't risk it. Others will have different answers.

I have read that you should not try to reverse the flow of the jungle river.
