Do you currently sell real world goods or services on other channels but want to expand to Alexa to reach new and existing customers? Good news, with Amazon Pay, you can offer a seamless voice purchasing experience to your customers, allowing them to purchase real-world goods and services via Alexa - without having to leave the voice experience.
