PayPal is not a payment option on Amazon but from next year, the 80 million users of its Venmo service will be able to pay for purchases on the e-commerce giant's app and website.

“We understand our customers want options and flexibility in how they make purchases on Amazon,” says Ben Volk, director, global payment acceptance, Amazon.

Amazon has mainly restricted its payment options to cards but recently inked a deal with Affirm to offer customers a buy now, pay later option.
