What the evidence says

  1. Documented by company source

    Amazon's help pages say Alexa+ books a ride after guiding the user through linking a rideshare account and letting them confirm or edit the service; the rideshare service charges the card on that account.

  3. Company claim

    Amazon says Alexa+ can help purchase tickets, request rides, reserve a table and book other services through linked third-party accounts, and can add grocery items to an Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods cart, ready to order.

  4. Documented by company source

    Amazon says Alexa+ works only with personal Amazon accounts, not Amazon Business or Enterprise accounts, and needs a supported location and language.

  5. Independently verified

    In a July 2025 Early Access test, before the full launch, Fortune found ordering an Uber by voice worked once the Uber account was linked, while a reservation failed because the restaurant wasn't on OpenTable, then Alexa+'s only reservation partner.
