Amazon Opens in Singapore

Amazon has expanded its online shopping experience - whether it be via desktop, mobile browser or the shopping app - to Singapore, with the launch of Amazon.sg.

All customers in Singapore get free delivery on eligible orders over S$40 within 2-3 days and have the option of paying S$2.99 for one-day delivery.

With the launch of Amazon.sg, Prime members in Singapore get free one-day delivery with no minimum spend for eligible local items on Amazon.sg, as well as free international shipping for eligible orders over S$60 on millions of items from the Amazon International Store.

Prime members in Singapore also have access to Prime Now, the free 2-hour delivery service for orders over S$40 on tens of thousands of groceries and local favorites. They also benefit from 30-min early access to deals and exclusive promotions.

Prime Video offers members exclusive Amazon Originals and other popular movies and TV shows like Good Omens, The Man in the High Castle, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Tom Clancy's Jack Ryan and more. Prime members interested in gaming will benefit from Twitch Prime's offering of free in-game loot, channel subscriptions and more.

Customers can try Prime by signing up for a 30-day free trial, and then join Prime for S$2.99 a month.

"With Amazon.sg, we want to provide what customers have been asking us for: the ability for everyone to shop on desktop and mobile, more local and international selection from Amazon and trusted sellers, paired with fast and reliable delivery. And we are also adding even more benefits for Prime members," said Henry Low, Amazon Singapore Country Manager. "This launch marks the next step for us in Singapore, and we will continue to work hard to earn the trust of Singapore customers by growing our product range, ensuring low prices, and providing a convenient and trusted shopping experience."

With the launch of Amazon.sg, it will be easier for Singapore businesses to sell their products on Amazon, reach more customers and expand their business. Amazon offers selling partners access to easy listing tools, payment processing and credit card fraud protection, promotional features to help them get discovered by customers and reports and analytics to improve selling.

"We are a proud partner of Amazon in eight countries and are excited for Amazon to launch in our home Singapore. We trust this will be a great opportunity for Amazon as well as merchants like us," said Alex Ostrowski, Co-founder, CEO of Supernova Group

Teo Shi Jie, Founder of Lend Me UR ears, said, "Amazon's FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) program is fast and efficient allowing my customers to receive their purchases on time. I am excited about the Singapore launch because I know it can help further my business."
