Ability to alias payment methods

From within a customers account on Amazon.co.uk if you have a lot of payment methods listed under the same person the only way to tell them apart is the '<card> ending in xxxx' string. Although this suffices, it is not easy to know which payment method you are using without having all cards to hand to check against.

It would simplify user experience if an alias could be added to a card, such as 'credit card' or 'savings account' etc.

need...want...Create and Edit Nicknames for Amazon Payment Methods (new feature request).

Currently, I cannot differentiate my credit cards.

Cannot tell one from another, since only the Visa vs MasterCard, and the last 4 characters of Card Number.

Cannot tell or see:

Bank Name

Card Brand

Card Features

Famously focused on customer satisfaction, Amazon is moving very slowly on this issue. I noticed that a credit card entered today automatically included the issuing bank name. A small improvement but it's better than only Mastercard, Visa, etc.

We can put a car into orbit around the Planet Earth, but we have no way to nickname the 10 different payments methods I have on Amazon.

Are the card accounts still active, are these old, good? I have no idea? All I can do is delete them all except for 1, and start again entering them when I need them.

Dang pain in the ace...
