Amazon TextBuyIt - Amazon Launches New Mobile Service
Amazon launched a new service called Amazon TextBuyIt. This service allows consumers to text “Amazon” (262966) a product name, UPC code, ISBN code, or search term and almost instantly be notified with Amazon’s price, as well as buying options. They even give users the option to receive a phone call to complete the purchase on the spot.
This a great step forward in integrating SMS messaging with purchasing products over the internet, without the need for a computer. Next time I’m at a Brick and Mortar store I will probably double check with Amazon’s TextBuyIt to see they are offering a better deal.
