Amazon Business

Overview

The 天美影视传媒 has partnered with OMNIA Partners and Amazon.com to provide an Amazon shopping experience for business and institutional customers.   This contract will allow USA staff and faculty the ability to purchase products tax exempt from the entire Amazon.com Business catalog via the . 

 

Important

Not all items listed on the Amazon website are products sold and shipped by Amazon. There are third party sellers on the site as well (details in the fine print). To avoid potential issues concerning USA's tax-exempt status and freight charges, Amazon recommends only purchasing products sold and shipped by Amazon.com. If a department is charged taxes and/or shipping after buying items sold through third party sellers, obtaining a credit for charged taxes and/or shipping is the responsibility of the ordering department. 

It is against the University's policy to use your University Gmail for personal Amazon purchases. If you are currently, or have in the past, used your University Gmail address for a personal Amazon account, you must disassociate the address  and create a separate, personal account using a non-University email address.  

All items purchased via the USA/Amazon Prime for Business contract must be shipped directly to the University and not to individuals residences unless prior approval is obtained from USA Finance and Administration and the responsible divisional Vice President.

 

IMPORTANT - Creating an Account

Interested users must contact the USA Purchasing Department to set up your Amazon Business account.  Do not use your USA P Card for any Amazon accounts without requesting an account through the Purchasing Department.
