Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) has launched the Amazon Barclaycard in partnership with Barclays, adding to its range of services. This new Visa credit card improves the shopping experience by offering up to 2% cashback on Amazon purchases, making it ideal for frequent shoppers.
亞馬遜公司（納斯達克：AMZN）與巴克萊銀行合作推出了Amazon Barclaycard，增加了其服務範圍。這張新的Visa信用卡通過在亞馬遜購物可獲得高達2%的返現，提高了購物體驗，非常適合頻繁購物者。
To attract a wide customer base, the card features a six-month interest-free period and no annual fee, which helps avoid extra costs. However, potential cardholders should note the financial implications after the introductory period.
爲了吸引廣泛的客戶群體，該卡提供六個月的免息期和無年費，避免了額外的費用。然而，潛在的持卡人應注意介紹期後的財務影響。
After the first six months, Amazon Barclaycard has a high annual percentage rate (APR) of 28.9%. Additionally, cashback benefits are reduced after the first year, which may lessen its appeal in the long run.
在第一年的六個月之後，Amazon Barclaycard擁有較高的年利率（APR）28.9%。此外，返現福利將在第一年後減少，這可能降低其長期吸引力。
One drawback is the lack of Apple Pay integration at launch, a feature favored by younger consumers, which could make it less appealing to that demographic.
一個缺點是在推出時缺乏Apple Pay集成，而Apple Pay是年輕消費者青睞的功能，這可能使該信用卡在該人群中不太吸引人。

The stock fell back to its opening level for the year before making a strong recovery. This volatility demonstrates the stock's resilience and growth potential, especially after a 32% increase in July.
股票跌回了今年的開盤水平，然後又取得了強勁的復甦。這種波動性顯示出股票的韌性和增長潛力，特別是在7月份增長了32%之後。
As it approaches the psychological barrier of $200, which was previously tested in July, whether it can break through this level again will be important for its future trajectory.
隨着股價接近心理關口200美元，這在7月份曾經被測試過，它能否再次突破這個水平將對其未來的軌跡非常重要。
