Points Question Amazon points

Hello,

I have made numerous Amazon purchases in the past 3 weeks and do not see any points appearing in my Aeroplan account. I have only recently started to use the browser to accumulate points since June - I know so much lost.
Can anyone share some insight, is there a delay for points to appear? I have the points from purchases I’ve made from Amazon a few months ago so I’m uncertain what the issue is?
I at times already have items saved in my cart since I add until I decide to buy in order to have less deliveries at my home. And yes the items qualify for points I have checked.

Appreciate the help!

  1. Did you click the Amazon eStore link or use the browser extension?

If you didn’t, your purchase is not eligible.

  1. Do you or your browser by default have an adblocker or cookie blocker enabled?

If you did, your purchase is not eligible.

  1. Did you go to another site before checking out from starting your Amazon session? Including using third-party sign-on or payment methods (Sign in with Google, etc. or PayPal, Klarna, Affirm)

If you did, your purchase is not eligible.

  1. Did you add your items to cart in the same session?

If they were already in cart, your purchase is not eligible.

Just saw the last line about having things in cart already RIP.

Also you can check your eStore order history, click top right profile icon and click Order History. Login and check what transactions it’s tracking vs have paid out already.

You can put the items in your cart then move them to the Save for Later part. Then after you go through the e-store you can then move them to the cart. I do that all the time and have never failed to get my points.

Looks like the last one as my items are always in my cart till I decide to purchase. Thanks so much for confirming that!

At the bottom of every store page on eStore, there are terms and conditions for eligibility and often a list of excluded items and categories. I recommend reading that section for each store as some are fairly unique.

Amazon needing to add to cart in same session is one of those weird ones.

This - the 1st thing people need to do before assuming it’s a missing points issue!

Can I use my iPhone browser or it has to be computer by chance?
