Step 1: Log into Your Amazon Account
The first step is to log into your Amazon account using your current email address and password. Once logged in, navigate to the homepage.
Step 2: Access Your Account Settings
In the top-right corner of the homepage, you will see a menu with various options. Click on the “Account & Lists” tab. From the drop-down menu that appears, select “Account” from the available options.
Step 3: Go to the Email Option
On the Account page, scroll down until you find the “Login & security” section. Under this section, you will find the “Email addresses” option. Click on it to proceed.
Step 4: Add a New Email
On the Email Addresses page, you will see your current email address listed. To add a new email, click on the “Add another email address” button.
Step 5: Enter Your New Email Address
A pop-up window will appear, prompting you to enter your new email address. Type your desired email and click on the “Add Email” button.
Step 6: Confirm the New Email
An email will be sent to your new address containing a verification link. Open your email inbox, find the email from Amazon, and click on the verification link to confirm the new email.
Step 7: Set Your New Email as the Primary Email
After confirming the new email, log back into your Amazon account. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 to access the Account page. Scroll down to the “Email addresses” section and find your new email listed. Click on the “Make primary” button next to your new email to set it as your primary email address for Amazon.
Step 8: Remove the Old Email (if desired)
If you no longer want to use your old email address associated with Amazon, you can remove it from your account. On the Email Addresses page, find your old email listed and click on the “Remove” button next to it. Confirm the deletion when prompted.
Step 9: Update email in Other Amazon Services
Keep in mind that changing your email address in your Amazon account does not automatically update it in other Amazon services, such as Kindle Direct Publishing or Amazon Music. If you use these services, make sure to update your email separately in each of them.
- Login to each Amazon service
- Navigate to the account settings
- Locate the option to change your email
- Follow the provided instructions to update your email in each service
By following these steps, you can easily change your Amazon email address and ensure that your account information is up to date. Remember to verify your new email and update it in other Amazon services you use. Happy shopping!
