Some 800,000 shoppers with Amazon Classic and Platinum Mastercards will no longer be able to use them from January 2023 as NewDay, the issuer, has walked away from the partnership. It's a blow for Platinum card holders who earn points to redeem at the online retailer.

Shoppers have just one week to go before Amazon stops accepting Visa credit cards to purchase items on 19 January. However, those with a Visa credit card set as their default payment, or those who only have a Visa credit card in their Amazon wallet, may be able to get a free £10 or £20 account credit if they update their details now.

You can now trade-in used smartphones and consoles on Amazon in return for vouchers to spend at the online retailer. It's an expansion of the scheme, which has until now only been available on Amazon's own brands, such as Echo, Kindle, and Ring.
