How to Buy Prime Video in Ethiopia with Telebirr
To pay for Prime Video in Ethiopia in birr, choose a duration on our Prime Video Ethiopia page, pay by Telebirr, CBE Birr, Awash Bank or Dashen Bank using the details shown at checkout, and upload your payment screenshot and transaction number. It goes on your own Amazon account, not a shared login. We confirm the payment before setting it up and tell you on Telegram or WhatsApp when it is done. Questions before you pay go to @itsabelb on Telegram.
Why paying Amazon directly is hard from Ethiopia
Amazon charges Prime Video by card, in foreign currency, every period. Most birr debit cards are not enabled for international online payments; that is the issuing bank's decision, and a VPN does not change it. Why Ethiopian cards are declined explains what to ask your bank. If someone abroad already pays for your account with a card Amazon accepts, that may be the simplest route; the catch is that it is a standing favour every renewal.

What you get
- Amazon's originals and licensed films and series, on your own account and profiles.
- Limited adverts. Amazon says Prime Video includes some, and sells an Ad Free option on top. If that matters to you, ask before paying and we confirm what your order includes.
- Downloads. Many titles, not all, can be downloaded to watch offline on a phone or tablet.
Prime Video's help pages have the current detail. No VPN is needed to watch.
Paying in birr, step by step
- Pick the length. The full price shows before you commit.
- Pay from your phone. Telebirr or CBE Birr, Awash or Dashen. Send the exact amount to the account shown at checkout.
- Upload the confirmation screenshot. Add the transaction number from your SMS, so the payment is matched to your order.
- Get set up. Setting it up needs one sign-in to your Amazon account. Your password goes only to the person doing it, is not stored with your order, and you change it once we confirm delivery.
If something goes wrong
- You paid but have not heard back. Send your order reference and transaction number to @itsabelb on Telegram.
- It stops working before the period ends. Our rule is on the replacement and refunds page: a fix or replacement within 24 hours for the whole period you paid for, or a refund for the part you did not receive.
