Beginning December 11, 2008, the Amazon Honor System will be discontinued. This means that PayBoxes on member websites and PayPages on Amazon.com will no longer function.

Amazon Honor System members should make plans now to remove Honor System PayBoxes from their websites. This can be done by simply removing the HTML code originally provided for PayBoxes from your page code document.

We will provide access to disbursement information through December 30, 2008, to allow all transactions to be settled. After that date, Amazon Honor System account pages will be removed from the Amazon.com website. We urge members to create file copies of necessary financial information before account pages are removed.

The Amazon Honor System has served an important function for members and for Amazon.com since its inception in Fall 2001. The Honor System has also been central to Amazon’s larger efforts to assist disaster relief agencies such as the American Red Cross. Although we are discontinuing the current Honor System framework we intend to continue our support for charitable giving with new technologies.
