How to Buy Paysafecard Online with Amazon Pay in 2026

Quick answer
Amazon Pay is not currently accepted at any major European Paysafecard reseller. Amazon removed Amazon Pay from Shopify-hosted EU stores in August 2024, and Amazon's own policy restricts prepaid voucher purchases through the service. The practical alternatives are Dundle, Recharge, and Startselect, which all sell Paysafecard online with PayPal, Klarna, Google Pay, Bancontact, and Visa. Codes are delivered by email and redeemed at my.paysafecard.com. An inactivity fee of €2 per month applies from the 13th month of non-use on registered myPaysafecard accounts.

How Amazon Pay Works for Paysafecard in Europe

Amazon Pay is not accepted at any confirmed major European Paysafecard reseller as of 2026. This is not a temporary issue: Amazon removed Amazon Pay from all Shopify-hosted EU merchants on 6 August 2024, eliminating it from most mid-size gift card resellers overnight (Shopify Community, 2024; Onlinemarktplatz.de, 2024). Amazon's own terms also restrict the use of Amazon Pay for purchasing prepaid payment vouchers, creating a policy barrier alongside the technical one.

Dundle, Recharge, Startselect, Kaartdirect, and Eneba all accept Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Klarna, Apple Pay, and Google Pay at checkout, but none list Amazon Pay as a supported option. This applies across Germany, Austria, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands.

Amazon Pay cannot currently be used to buy Paysafecard at any major European reseller. This applies to Germany, Austria, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands.

Step-by-Step: How to Buy Paysafecard in Europe

The steps below describe the direct route: buying a digital Paysafecard code from a verified European reseller using the payment methods they actually support.

Step 1: Choose a Verified Reseller

Open a confirmed European Paysafecard reseller: Dundle, Recharge, or Startselect all stock standard denominations and deliver digital codes instantly by email. Dundle covers Germany, Austria, France, Belgium, and the Netherlands:

Step 2: Select Your Denomination

Choose the amount you need: €10, €25, €50, or €100 are standard. Some resellers also offer €15 and €30 denominations.

Step 3: Select Your Payment Method

At checkout, pick a supported method. Across the major resellers, PayPal, Klarna, Google Pay, Apple Pay, iDEAL (Netherlands), Bancontact (Belgium), and Visa or Mastercard are all accepted.

Step 4: Complete the Purchase

Enter your payment details and confirm the order. Digital Paysafecard codes are sent to your email address within minutes of purchase.

Step 5: Redeem at my.paysafecard.com

Log in at my.paysafecard.com, navigate to the top-up section, and enter your 16-digit PIN. Your balance is credited immediately and ready to use.

For Belgium, Recharge accepts Bancontact, Visa, Mastercard, and Klarna, and delivers codes instantly:

Fees, Limits, and Availability

Authorized resellers sell Paysafecard codes at face value with no purchase fee or markup. The Paysafecard itself carries no activation fee, but an inactivity fee of €2 per month applies from the 13th month of non-use on registered myPaysafecard accounts (Paysafecard Fee Information Document, 2024). For unverified accounts, a single-transaction limit of €50 applies in Austria and Belgium; the standard monthly limit is €500.

Paysafecard codes are country-specific. A code purchased for Germany cannot be redeemed on a Belgian or French account. Select the denomination and country matching your account region when purchasing.

Amazon Pay is unlikely to become available at mainstream European Paysafecard resellers in the near term, given Amazon's prepaid voucher policy restrictions and the 2024 Shopify EU removal. If you need to confirm current availability, check each reseller's checkout payment options directly at the time of purchase.
