In this guide Ie will show you how to create Amazon Client ID for "Login with Amazon" module dedicated for PrestaShop. After completing this guide you should have a working Login with Amazon button on your website to allow users to log in with their Amazon credentials.

First, you will need to register your website as an application on the  App Console . In the  App Console register a new application by clicking the Register new Application button. The Register Your Application form will appear. Note: You will be redirected to Seller Central, which handles application registration for Login with Amazon. If this is your first time using Seller Central, you will be asked to setup a Seller Central account.

In the application details page, add basic details about your product. These details will be used on your website and mobile apps (if applicable).

Name Shown to Users This is the name displayed on the consent screen when the users agree to share the information with your application. This name applies to Android, iOS, and website versions of your application.
