1-click payments
Can this be disabled?

If so where can i find in in the amazon kindle menus options on their website. I accidentally purchased three books yesterday instead of downloading the sample chapters

Thanks

No, even if you disable 1-click, Kindle purchases are all processed that way. Pay attention to what you are clicking on. You can return books within 7 days, just call Kindle Support.

The only way to "disable" one-click is to remove your credit card from your account.

The other day somebody posted a way to make it so Amazon asks you to confirm your 1-click purchase... a sort of "2-click payment" system. I'm not sure how they did it, but I'd like to follow along and do the same thing. I always worry about buying books by mistake.

I think it was Blossom, but I'm not sure.

Yep that was me. All you do is remove all payment info from your account. This removes the default payment from the MYK page. Now re-add it to the Payment Methods area in your normal account settings not the MYK page. Now when you go to buy a book it will take you to a confirm page where you have to select the card to use before buying. Make sure 1 click buying is off.

You will have to buy Kindle books from the website on your PC instead of your Kindle. If you buy a book from your Kindle it adds the card used to the default payment settings on the MYK page.

Also if you order a new Kindle, the card you used to purchased the new Kindle will be added as a default payment for Kindle books and you'll have to remove your Card and start over.

I do this with Android apps as well to keep from auto buying.

Why do they require 1-click purchasing?

I really wish I could "shop with points" to buy my Kindle books.

And how does one use an Amazon.com gift card to buy Kindle books?

If you were using Adblock Plus, you could block the "Buy now with 1-click" image. That you stop accidental purchase. Also making wanted purchases difficult too.

Good lord. Why is that so pricey? And the "reviews" gave me a chuckle.
