Amazon is an online store. When Amazon stops loading, the question is always the same: is the service down for everyone, or is the problem on your side? The check above visits amazon.com right now from Cloudflare's network, so you get an answer in a few seconds.

If Amazon is up but not working for you

If a payment or order was in progress, don't retry straight away. Check your email, order history, or bank app first so you don't pay twice.
Use the official Amazon app or type the address yourself rather than following links in messages. Scam messages often spread during outages.
Wait a few minutes and try again, since many problems are short-lived.

Common questions

Is Amazon down for everyone or just me?

Our check visits amazon.com from a Cloudflare server, far away from your connection. If it answers there but not for you, the problem is most likely your Wi-Fi, internet provider, DNS, VPN, or the app. If it doesn't answer there either, Amazon is probably down for many people. A single check can be wrong, so try again in a minute before you decide.

Why is Amazon not working?

The usual causes are Amazon having a real outage or maintenance, your Wi-Fi or internet provider, a DNS problem, a VPN or ad blocker, an out-of-date app or browser, or the wrong date and time on your device. Work through the steps above from the easiest to the hardest.

What does "up, but blocking checks" mean?

Some large sites refuse requests that come from servers rather than ordinary browsers. If the check says the site responded but blocked it, the site is almost certainly working, and the check just can't see more than that.

Where is the official Amazon status page?

We aren't aware of a public status page from Amazon. The company's help center and its official support account on social media are the best places to look for confirmed problems.
