i had just been giving 180 days test from amazon associate, i intend to use pinterest as my affiliating space. amazon said that they will verify the eligibility of my website once the first sale is made, do i really need to make a website? or they just refer to the affiliating space with (website)? would i be okay using just Pinterest accounts to affiliate?
 
Seriously ? So if they say they will review your website, then at a guess I'd say you need to provide a website for them to review.... :rolleyes:
 
You should male a pre-landing page

pinterest - > pre-landing -> amazon
 
You need to have a website/youtube channel/social media (i.e. facebook page, twitter account - but you need to list them on your website list at amazon).

You can not use Pinterest, because it automatically swaps your tracking id with their tracking id. (not sure if they are still swapping users tracking id's or not)
 
they let u use social pages as it says during application for the programme. dont know how many websites (or social pages) they ban if they want to. But make it good

Curious how this went. I'm where you were over a year ago...curious of your result..are you still doing affiliate marketing for amazon on pinterest?
 
a website is crucial to get accepted in amazon affiliate, but i think they added an influencer part too when you can get your social profiles accepted but you need to have content in there

Actually, this is incorrect, I have been through this myself when I use to advertise via Facebook, one thing you should know about Amazon, is they are incredibly vague... I have had to message their support so many times about their policy as they are ambiguous... my website, they mean a website, not specifically the one you own. A good example is if you have a facebook page, although you do not own Facebook, you own the page on facebook. The reason they are ambiguous is that they can have a high ban rate and keep profits up.

I once had to give them my exact scenario as I thought it was over the line of their policy. They emailed me back to say it was ok to do. a few weeks late BANHAMMER. I had to then show them the screenshot their support sent me and got unbanned. This is Amazon for you.

OP. I suggest if you use Pinterest, you email them first and ask them if its ok. They tried to ban me with £3000 profit, after showing them the email they sent me, they unbanned me and deposited my funds. Keep yourself covered, amazon love to fuck people over.

Yikes...yeah I thought using my pinterest page was A-OK with them. I put my link in the website bar when I applied. But I haven't had a sale yet for them to review my page?? What would have happened if they hadn't turned that around for you...3k would be a lot to loose over some technicality.

Honestly mate, Amazon love technicalities, I personally think that is why they make their policy so vague... they won't review unless you get a lot of sales, they tend to wait for the money to come in, then review to ban you. Honestly email them, they take around 2 days to reply, tell them exactly what your doing and ask them if its ok to do. It is the only way to approach this unless you want to lose your hard earned money.

Amazon will ban you. They do not hold back. Just google "amazon affiliate banned me" people have lost 20k+
