Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) ended its feud with Visa Inc (NYSE: V) when the former agreed to accept Visa cards as payment on its platform globally. This move comes after Amazon threatened to refuse Visa cards from customers based in the U.K. The company was also considering expanding the ban to Australia and Singapore.
Following the disagreement, Amazon wanted to partner with Mastercard Inc (NYSE: MA) instead. Fortunately, the two companies held talks to agree to new terms.
Amazon has also resolved its dispute with Elastic NV. This dispute was caused by Amazon Web Services releasing a data search product similar to Elastic’s. As a result, Elastic filed a trademark lawsuit against that company for two years.
The two companies agreed that Amazon when Services will no longer use the term Elastic Search for its service names or products. They did not reveal other terms of their agreement.
Warehouse elections in Bessemer and Staten Island will be in March
An Amazon warehouse at Bessemer near Birmingham will hold an election in March. This election is around the same time as another warehouse election in Staten Island. The Staten Island election will be between March 25 and 30 and in person.
The Birmingham election, on the other hand, will use a mail-in ballot. It is re-election from a previous election that the National Labor Relations Board overthrew due to Amazon’s interference.
The Labour agency has already sent out the ballots to Birmingham workers and expects them by March 25. It will begin counting the votes on March 28. The process could last for days, so workers still don’t know when to expect results.
