    Thanks for the great informative video. I just got accepted to Amazon Influencer Program and uploaded my first two "unboxing" videos. After two days, my videos are now showing as "published". Does that mean that amazon "approved" those two videos for the influencer program and now waiting for my third? Or will Amazon re-evaluated the three videos again (as an whole) when I upload my third video? Last question, I noticed that some influencers as posting 10 second videos, are those videos earning the onsite commissions?!? I thought I read that the videos needed to be at least 30 seconds to qualify for onsite commisison?

    Do I have to use the same account that I buy amazon products on to also promote a video about that product? For example, my family member has an amazon prime account but I want to start an amazon influencer account. Should I use their amazon prime account or am I free to make my own account and just buy products through their account?

    I got rejection. Just question, when I sign up for influencer program it directs me to the gmail account. Now the problem is under the same gmail address I have two youtube channel. My active youtube channel is under brand account which is kind of extension and main gmail youtube account which is not active, I just use that to watch videos only. So the when amazon influencer program direct to me to youtube section, it shows the account which has no subscribe but it does not direct me to the brand account. I am just wondering how can I make influencer sign up link to the brand account. Or is it amazon analysis automatically which youtube channel to assess? is any one else who faces the same problem?

    So if I make a video review for a product for my Amazon Influencer page, would it be a violation of the rules to use that same video on my YouTube channel?

    Great video, thanks! I believe that comission is higher if you drive traffic from instagram or youtube. That's why some people use direct links, not quite sure. Do you know anything about it?

    I got accepted instantly. My main channel is around one year old. 75k subs and 30m views.

    Not sure if that helps anyone.

    Great video! thank you so much for making this. However, I am still a little confused because I am monetized here on YouTube, but they did not approve me when I applied. I can't find a page or F&Q page from amazon explaining what the requirements are. Do you know why they might have denied me?

    Hey, I'm having an issue where specific videos will get disapproved over and over for "The video contains prices, advertising information, discount promises or information that is limited in time"

    I have 47 approved videos, but just a few will not go through right now. I have re-edited and resubmitted the videos multiple times. Listened and made sure nothing is wrong.

    Have you run into this issue, and if so, how did you solve it?

    Hey! Thanks for the great video. I am managing my wife's Influencer account for her (she also quit her job, lol). Quick question on her store front when we want to "Create Content" she only has photo or idea list as an option. Should she not also be able to creat a video? If so, does it take some time once accepted into the program for this feature to go live? Thanks!

    Is it true that if you don’t make a sale within a certain time, they shut your amazon influencer program? How long do you have? How can you get away with it?

    if you get denied as an amazon influencer, does it hurt your chance of applying to amazon associate? Also once denied, can you reapply?

    How am I getting views when I haven't advertised on my socials and it isn't posted on the reviews section? I'm definitely not complaining, but trying to figure out how people are seeing my reviews. Some reviews accumulated before my first videos were even approved. So weird.

    200 subs? Pretty sure it’s over 2,000 subs. You are right about your content, I know someone with 1.7 million and he can’t get in because of his media presence.
    Also, in the affiliate program you get credit for everything they buy in 24 hours because you drive them to the platform. But, influencers only make money from items in that category, so if they watch your video and buy something close to it you get credit, but not everything in their cart. And yes, the money is more than I ever dreamed of.

    Does anyone know why the video is locked, it says it will go through in two business days but it never does

    Good info but one correction: The commissions generated by the Influencer program are lower than those generated by the Associates program.

    Do you have to be on the Amazon Affiliate program
    For 6 months before you can be in the Influencer program. Someone at Amazon told me that today and it seems utterly ridiculous!
