Amazon.com Inc. is more than doubling its line of credit to $7 billion as it takes steps to fuel revenue growth, including building data centers, expanding internationally and producing original video content.

The line of credit, which was previously $3 billion, is led by Bank of America Corp. and HSBC Holdings Plc. Amazon opened the credit line in 2016. The new terms extend the agreement until April 27, 2021.
