“Today, everything you can buy on Amazon.com can be paid for with Dwolla,” Dwolla’s founder Ben Milne wrote Friday in a post on the startup’s blog. “It’s a pretty amazing demonstration of what can happen when a network has a dead simple value prop, a brilliant group of people chase an idea, and when one of the world’s biggest online marketplaces is on the other side.”

The creators of Dwolla realized that being a user with few local businesses that actually accept Dwolla can be frustrating. Now through Zinc Save, geographic location won’t be a factor that holds users back from paying with Dwolla. The Des Moines-based startup’s beta launch of Dwolla Credit and the Dwolla Storefront in October 2013 also helps serve a similar user demographic.

Zinc Save not only allows Amazon customers to pay with Dwolla but also gets the purchaser a discount on a variety of products on the site.

Milne writes that he’s already made two Amazon purchases using Dwolla as payment.

“My first two purchases? Pre-ordering Ben Horowitz‘s book, ‘The Hard Things About the Hard Things‘ and David Wolman‘s, ‘The End Of Money.’”
