Amazon
We have recently learned in an official way that Amazon to enter the world of student loans, a world quite unknown in Spain but that is becoming more and more famous worldwide and it is not for less because the amount of money it moves is overwhelming.
Thus, users of Amazon Prime Students will be able to request their student loans at a lower interest rate from the rest of the market. This is achieved by Amazon due to a partnership it has made with Wells Fargo Finance Company.
Amazon Prime Students offers the possibility of discounts on books in addition to student loans
Student loans will be paid by Wells Fargo and not by Amazon as you may think or seem, so if students are dissatisfied, Wells Fargo will be responsible, so Amazon takes nothing for each contract that is made or at least that's what they say.
In any case, leaving aside student loans a bit, it is true that Amazon Prime Students is becoming a great option to consider since not only will we be able to enjoy special shipments or discounts on ebooks, textbooks or devices such as tablets but now it will also allow us to manage the student loans that we have contracted. Go a complete kit for young people entering higher education and they want to have a greater degree of independence than they have, even if it means a few years of slavery by financial companies afterwards.
In any case, I find this new Amazon offer striking and curious, an offer that clearly indicates Amazon's intentions to get into the educational world. However Will it be done in all countries or only in the United States? Will Amazon Prime Students arrive in Spain? What do you think?
