Amazon Business Prime Account Reminders

April 25, 2025

Northwestern maintains a central Amazon Business Prime account. Individual Prime memberships are not allowed, departments funds cannot be used to pay for these.

  • Vendor Priority: Use Preferred Vendors in iBuyNU when possible. If Amazon is needed, prioritize the iBuyNU catalog. If an item is blocked in the catalog, contact procurement@northwestern.edu.
  • Corporate Card Use: Corporate Cards must be tied to Northwestern’s Amazon Business Prime account and a Northwestern email address.
  • Personal Purchases: Must be made using a personal Prime account linked to a personal email (not a Northwestern email).
