How to Hide an Amazon Order on Your Account

Amazon may let you move an eligible order out of the default Your Orders view by selecting Hide Order. Hiding an Amazon order does not delete it, erase the account record, or prevent another person with full account access from finding it.

Can You Hide an Amazon Order?

Amazon uses the term Hide Order for this feature on supported personal accounts. Some Amazon help material or older account screens may call the same action Archive Order.

The feature only removes an eligible order from immediate view in the main order history. The order remains connected to the account and may still appear in hidden-order views, searches, account data, messages, recommendations, shared-device activity, or other Amazon features.

If you are asking, “how can I hide an Amazon order on my account?” the practical answer is to look for Hide Order beside the order on Amazon’s desktop website. The option is not available for every account, order, interface, or account type.

How Do You Sign In to the Amazon Account That Contains the Order?

You must sign in to the same Amazon account that placed the order. An order will not appear if you use a different email address, mobile number, or household member’s sign-in.

1. Open the company’s official website in a web browser.
2. Select the account sign-in option.
3. Enter the email address or mobile number associated with the account.
4. Enter the password and complete any security check Amazon requests.
5. Open Account & Lists, then select Your Orders.

If the order is missing, check the account name shown on the page. Also use the order-history search or date filter before assuming that the record belongs to another account.

How Do You Hide or Archive an Amazon Order?

Hide Order is Amazon’s current wording on supported account screens. Archive Order may appear instead on an older version of the interface; either action moves the order out of the default order-history view without deleting it.

On a desktop or laptop:

1. Sign in and open Your Orders.
2. Use the search box or date filter to locate the order.
3. Look in the available actions for Hide Order. If your account displays Archive Order instead, select that option.
4. Read the confirmation message and confirm the action if Amazon asks you to do so.
5. Return to Your Orders and check that the order is no longer in the immediate default view.

The Amazon Shopping app may show order details without offering Hide Order or Archive Order. On a phone, use a browser instead:

1. Open Amazon in the phone’s browser and sign in.
2. Use the browser menu to request the desktop version of the site.
3. Open Your Orders and locate the order.
4. Select Hide Order or Archive Order if that action is displayed, then confirm it.

If the desktop version still has no such action, do not rely on an unofficial workaround. Amazon may not make the feature available for that order or account.

How Do You Find a Hidden or Archived Amazon Order?

A hidden or archived Amazon order remains in the account. It has only been moved away from the default Your Orders view.

1. Sign in to the account that placed the order.
2. Open Your Orders or the Your Account area.
3. Look for Hidden Orders or Archived Orders in the available order views or filters.
4. If no separate view appears, search the order history using an item name or review the relevant date period.
5. Open the order details when the matching record appears.

If Amazon provides an Unhide Order or Unarchive Order action, selecting it returns the record to the normal order-history view. Do not assume the order was erased if Amazon changes the name or location of the hidden-order view.

How Can You Protect Orders on a Shared Amazon Account?

Hiding an Amazon order is not a security control. Anyone who shares the same Amazon credentials may be able to open account settings, search order history, read account messages, or locate hidden records.

• Use separate Amazon accounts rather than sharing one sign-in.
• Where Amazon Household is available, let each adult use an individual Amazon account and credentials.
• Turn on two-step verification for the Amazon account.
• Sign out after using a shared browser, phone, tablet, or computer.
• Do not save the password in a shared browser profile.
• Review Amazon notification settings on shared devices because order information may appear outside Your Orders.
• Protect access to the email account and mobile device used for Amazon security checks.

These steps improve privacy, but they do not permanently erase an existing order. A person who already has full access to the same account may still find its records.

What Should You Do If Hide Order or Archive Order Is Missing?

If you are asking, “how do I hide an Amazon order on my account?” but no option appears, first confirm that you are using Amazon’s desktop website or the desktop view in a mobile browser. The Amazon Shopping app may not provide the action.

Other likely restrictions include:

• The order is not eligible for hiding.
• The account type does not support the feature.
• Amazon has not made the feature available in that version of the account interface.
• You signed in to a different Amazon account.
• The action is inside the order’s additional options rather than on the first screen.

Open the company’s official website, enter the Help or Customer Service area, and search for Amazon’s instructions about hiding or archiving orders. If the official instructions do not match your account, use Amazon’s signed-in customer-support options so the representative can check the account type and available features. Never give a password or verification code to someone who contacts you unexpectedly.
