How to Save with Amazon Canada Coupons

Amazon has become the largest online retailer over the last several years. It looks like a large retailer more and more despite its focus on e-commerce. Coupons are an important merchandising tool that Amazon adopted too. Let's see how to get coupons and save on your purchases with Amazon Canada in 2023.


Being the largest online retailer does not mean being the cheapest place to buy stuff. Amazon has competitive prices, but one should compare prices with other sites or in-store. 

Before jumping to coupons, let's talk about how Amazon sets prices on its site. Like any other retailer, Amazon is a marketplace, where brands sell their produce. These brands pay Amazon a fee, which can go up to 50% of the price tag. This fee includes the permission to sell on the platform, fulfillment and shipping. 

Amazon does fulfillment for the brands and companies. This means these companies send large batches of their products to Amazon's fulfillment centers across Canada. Actually, this is why Amazon's shipping is this fast. By distributing the same product across its warehouses, Amazon can ship the product within 24-48 hours after someone buys it.

This infrastructure has a cost to Amazon. This cost is passed to Amazon's partners - those brands and companies that use Amazon's marketplace. This is why the price on a lot of Amazon-sold products may be higher. 

Amazon has a rich choice of products. They also know that you will not be comparing prices on every single product you put in your virtual cart. 

You can bring their low price further down with Amazon coupons. The company has a coupon portal with hundreds of coupons.
