The Amazon Prime Video TVOD charge is confusing users. For those who are checking their credit card bills wondering what “Amazon TVOD” is, here’s a breakdown of the charge and what it’s for, as well as ways to avoid future accidental purchases or rentals.

What is the Amazon Prime Video TVOD charge?

The Amazon Prime Video TVOD charge is for digital content that is pre-ordered, rented, bought, downloaded, or streamed outside of the normal Prime Video subscription.

TVOD stands for “transactional video on-demand.” It refers to content that is available through Prime Video but at an additional cost to the standard subscription. For example, some new movies are only available as separately paid-for rentals and aren’t featured within the Prime Video subscription catalog.

How to stop Prime Video TVOD charges to your credit card

To stop Prime Video TVOD charges to your credit card, you should:

  • Carefully navigate Prime Video content to ensure you don’t make any accidental purchases.

  • Ensure family and friends who have access to your account are careful not to make accidental purchases.

  • Users with children will want to be especially vigilant, as the latest kids’ movie may only be available through purchase or rental, which will cost extra.

Compared to other streaming services that have a simple “pay once and access all content” approach, Prime Video can be confusing to navigate. Before hitting “Play,” make sure the content you’re about to watch is included in your subscription. There shouldn’t be a price listed.

If you have made any accidental purchases, your best bet is to contact Amazon Support who may be able to assist you. Failing that, you will just have to limit access to your account and pay close attention to what you are watching.
