The ability to disable the express purchasing option offered by a prominent online retailer is a configuration setting within the user’s account. This setting, once deactivated, requires confirmation at checkout for each individual transaction, overriding the streamlined “buy now” process. This configuration change is accessible through the user’s account settings and impacts future purchase behavior.
Disabling this feature provides enhanced control over spending and reduces the risk of unintentional purchases. It allows for careful review of order details, shipping addresses, and payment methods before final commitment. Historically, the single-click purchasing option aimed to enhance convenience; however, some users prioritize security and purchase verification over speed.
