I think that one thing that we can almost guarantee with Amazon, as with the vast majority of their other services, is that this will stay proprietary. It's also built on top of OAuth2 (blech). > Can anyone find info about how to do a payment with their SDK? I signed up for Login with Amazon using our Amazon credentials to see if there was anything else that showed up. Nothing, they just point to their public documentation. Looked in the forums, nothing. The only thing I saw in their documentation was how to obtain a name, e-mail, postal code, and Amazon User ID. I didn't see any details on how you would initiate a payment. So, I started a new thread: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=172939 Hopefully, they'll respond soon. As an aside, I can't imagine that the Persona guys are too happy with this announcement. This is the sort of thing I've been trying to get them to pay attention to. It's a use case that will become more and more important for Web-based payments (getting payment provider/shipping/payment meta-data from the login provider). -- manu -- Manu Sporny (skype: msporny, twitter: manusporny, G+: +Manu Sporny) Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. blog: Meritora - Web payments commercial launch http://blog.meritora.com/launch/
