A UK seller with stores on Amazon.com, Amazon.de and Amazon.co.uk gets three disbursements every two weeks, in dollars, euros and pounds. Into a single sterling bank account, two of them go through Amazon's currency converter at Amazon's rate. Into an account with USD and EUR details, they arrive in the original currency and the seller decides when to convert.
Five options compared
| Receive marketplace payouts | FX | Supplier payments | Ad spend cards | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WorldFirst | Free, 130+ marketplaces | up to 0.50% | £11.55 USD to China | 25 virtual, cashback up to 1.2% |

The pick for most sellers
For a pure product seller paying suppliers in China, WorldFirst is the strongest fit. It was built for this, receiving is free, and China payments arrive within four business hours.
When Rivet fits better
Many sellers also run something else: an agency, a SaaS tool, a brand that wholesales to retailers. Those clients pay invoices, not marketplace disbursements. Rivet gives the company USD details in its own name on the free Starter plan, unlimited virtual cards to split ad spend by brand or platform, payouts to contractors and suppliers in 120+ countries, and USDC and USDT. Growth adds EUR and GBP details.
Whether Amazon accepts a given account for disbursements is Amazon's decision, based on the account's country and currency. Test with a small payout first. Our guide to Amazon seller payouts to a company account covers the setup, and virtual cards for ad spend covers card control. Rivet is not a bank; regulated partner institutions hold client funds.
Questions people ask
Can I receive Amazon payments into a multi-currency account?
Yes, if Amazon accepts the account's country and currency for your marketplace. Amazon's Seller Central lists supported bank locations. Test with a small disbursement before switching your main marketplace.
Should I let Amazon convert my disbursements?
Amazon's currency converter is convenient but its rate includes a margin. Receiving in the marketplace currency and converting yourself at a published rate is often cheaper. Compare both on one disbursement.
What is the best card for Amazon ad spend?
A virtual card per marketplace or brand with its own limit, from an account that holds the ad currency so you avoid card FX fees.
