How does Amazon pay out to affiliates? Do they offer anything except checks? I couldn't find that on their site before joining.
You will be sent payments monthly and the payment methods depends on your selection. For a minimum of $10 earnings, you can request for payment via Amazon’s gift certificate allowing you to purchase from Amazon or you can choose to be paid directly via direct deposit to your account. If you prefer to be paid by check, the minimum payout would be $100. found this on another site and i also heard that amazon also allows you to buy their prodeucts instead of getting paid.
1. Gift - instant. 2. Direct Deposit - only for U.S banks - get the commission within a week. 3. Check - needs 1-2 months to get a check cleared.
Many people sell their gift certificates, much the way they sell Adwords vouchers and thingies like that.
