Amazon sent out an e-mail today to all active Amazon Payment account holders that says, starting October 13th, the company is
eliminating person-to-person payments.
Additionally, we have updated the terms and
conditions of our User Agreement that apply to your use of the products
and services provided by Amazon Payments. Our updated User Agreement
revises certain terms (including, among other things, the elimination of
person-to-person payments). Our new User Agreement will become
effective on October 13, 2014, which is more than 30 days from when we
first posted our updated User Agreement. By continuing to use our
services after October 13, 2014, you are agreeing to be bound by the
terms and conditions of our new User Agreement.
