Ive been using Amazon Prime for years so I usually know my way around the UI but I hit a wall today. Im organizing a mountain bike retreat for 10 people next month and spent all morning building a massive cart with tubes, tools, and snacks. Total is sitting right around 600 bucks.
Problem is, my boss wants to pay for it directly with the company card instead of me waiting for a reimbursement. I really dont want to manually move 30 items into a public wishlist just for him to click them all one by one. Is there any shortcut to just push my full cart over to his login or share the link so he can just hit checkout?
Late to the party but I actually had this exact thing happen last year when I was speccing out a new lab setup. I had like 40 items in my cart and my manager didnt want to hand over the company card details... obviously. I tried just sending screenshots but he missed a couple of specific part numbers and it was a nightmare to fix the invoice later. One thing I learned the hard way: make sure you confirm which address the card is tied to before he hits buy. Sometimes company accounts have a default shipping address that overrides everything. I started using Cart To Link to generate a single shareable URL because it keeps the quantities intact. You might want to consider doing a quick screen share while he checkouts tho, just to be safe. It saves so much time compared to the manual wishlist method, which is basically a trap for errors.
Honestly, I love this question because I run into it every single time we do a hardware refresh at the office! It is so annoying that Amazon hasnt built a share cart button yet but dont worry, there are a few killer ways to handle this without losing your mind manually adding items. Here is the technical breakdown of what actually works:
Saw this today and had to jump in! It is seriously amazing how many people still struggle with this. There are actually browser extensions that do exactly what you need by bundling your items into one link. It is a total lifesaver for company expenses! Love how much time it saves. Btw I started using Cart To Link and it makes it way easier to show people what's in my cart.
