Amazon Prime Store Card Perk Bites the Dust: Say Goodbye to Special Financing!
Published on December 3, 2025, 9:07 PM
Heads up, Amazon Prime Store Cardholders! Amazon just announced that as of February 16, 2026, they're axing the "special financing" option. This means you'll no longer be able to snag those sweet deals where you pay no interest if you pay off your purchase within a specific time frame (usually 6, 12, or 24 months).
Why does this matter to you? If you're someone who regularly uses this financing to spread out the cost of bigger purchases on Amazon without racking up interest, you'll need to adjust your strategy. Start thinking about alternative payment options like using a 0% APR credit card (a card that doesn't charge interest for a set period) or saving up beforehand.
While February 2026 is a ways off, it's good to start planning now. Keep an eye out for other cards that offer similar financing options or rewards programs that might better suit your Amazon spending habits. We'll keep you posted here on AwardTrail as we find them!
