About Amazon

Amazon is one of the largest global online retailers and operates as both a direct seller and a marketplace for third-party vendors. Through its affiliate program, Amazon Associates, publishers can earn commissions by promoting a wide range of products across categories such as electronics, books, fashion, home goods, groceries, and digital services. The program runs on Amazon’s in-house platform rather than a third-party network and is available in multiple country-specific versions, requiring separate enrollment for each region. Commissions vary by category, generally ranging from 1% to 10%, with a standard 24-hour cookie window that extends to 90 days if a product is added to a customer’s cart. Payouts are made via direct deposit, gift card, or check, depending on the associate’s location.
