Amazon TextPayMe – Most Popular Text Commands

July 7th, 2009 · View Comments · Technical Writing

You can now use Amazon’s TextPayMe to send payments to your friend by mobile/cell phone. Remember to send your text messages to ‘262966′ (AMAZON).
To send a payment
Command: ‘pay’ or ‘p’
Text ‘pay’, the $ dollar amount and the recipient’s mobile number. E.g. Pay 5 2065551234
To check your balance
Command: ‘bal’ or ‘b’
Text ‘bal’ to check your account balance.
You will then get a message with your account balance and current send and receive limits.
To use the alias feature
Commands: ‘alias <your alias>’, ‘alias <on/off>’
Text ‘alias whatever’ to set your alias to whatever.
An alias must start with a letter (a-z) and cannot be more than 10 characters long.
It also cannot be registered by another TextPayMe user.
Text ‘alias on’ to allow other users to send money to you using your alias instead of your phone number.
Text ‘alias off’ to disable this feature.
To use the request payment feature
Commands: ‘req <dollar amount> <phone number>’
Text ‘req 10 2065553421 4251113421′ to request $10 each from two users at once (those with the phone numbers listed).
You can request money from up to 3 phone numbers in a single “request” command.
To get Help
Command: ‘t’
Text ‘t’ to receive TextPayMe help on how to use basic commands like “pay” or “bal”.
