Amazon’s Prime Day is off to a solid start, but the main news may not be how much shoppers are shelling out.

U.S. online spending on the first day of Amazon’s four-day Prime Day event jumped 5.3% to $8.3 billion across merchants from a year ago, Adobe Analytics said. That made June 23 the biggest e-commerce day of 2026 to date, with spending tracking above Adobe’s estimates.
