Amazon Associates
Join Amazon Associates once, then apply to brands inside this marketplace.
Amazon Associates is the default product-commission programme for UK publishers, not a multi-merchant network. Official UK help: 24 hours to add to basket, £25 minimum on deposit/gift card, paid about 60 days after month end. 2026 operating-agreement changes tightened attribution. Seeded paused for operator review.
