What to Do If You Haven't Received Your Confirmation Email From Amazon
When you place an order with Amazon, as soon as you click, "Place Order," a "Thank You" page will appear onscreen. This page contains some of the details about your order. At the same time, a confirmation email will be sent to the email you have on file with Amazon with your order information, including your order confirmation number, what you ordered, the price of the purchase, and the time of arrival for each item, you ordered. If you didn't receive your confirmation email, there are a few things you can do:

- Make sure you are opted in to receive notification emails from Amazon
- Visit your order history page to make sure the order went through

Check Your Spam Folder
Although rare, there are times when the system will redirect your important emails to your junk mail folder. To ensure all your Amazon emails are sent straight to your inbox, add Amazon to your contacts list.
Make Sure You Are Checking the Email on File with Amazon
When you first sign up for an account at Amazon, the information you provide, including your email and your physical address, will be your default information, which will be used when you place your orders, unless you specify otherwise.
Make Sure you are Opted in to Receive Notification Emails from Amazon
When you first create an account with Amazon, by default, you are automatically signed up to receive email notifications including confirmation emails. However, you can customize these notifications, which you may have done at some point. In any case, to make sure you receive your confirmation email notifications in the future, navigate to the email preferences and notifications page and choose the correct options and don't forget to click, "Save" when done.
Visit Your Order History Page to Make Sure the Order Went Through Successfully
Every order that you successfully place will be listed on your order history page. If you do not find your order in the list, then it has not been completed. You will have to put the order in again and once it is complete, you will be redirected to a "Thank You" page.
Contact a Customer Support Agent at Amazon
If all else, fails or you just want to skip over everything and contact a customer support agent at Amazon.
