Amazon Saudi Arabia has been launched via the Amazon.sa domain to replace Souq.com.
Souq website visitors in Saudi Arabia are now redirected to Amazon.sa.
According to a joint statement on the new site's main page, the new store combines Souq's experience with the local market and Amazon's global user experience in retail.
All of Souq.com’s customer data have been transferred to the new Amazon.sa accounts, allowing customers to use their existing login information to shop on the new site.
The data includes orders, delivery addresses, customer service inquiries, payment methods, and wishlists.
Amazon's Saudi website will also provide free next day delivery service for orders over $53.
Customers in select areas will also be able to avail of same-day deliveries for an additional fee.
The move is similar to what Amazon had done with the UAE market last year.
Amazon is expected to roll out its Prime service in Saudia Arabia shortly, just as it did in the UAE market.
Amazon acquired Dubai-based souq.com for around $580 million in March 2017.
