In early August, 2021, we saw the first hints of Amazon launching it’s newest storefront and affiliate program – Amazon Egypt. Suffice to say, we were excited!

On March 2nd, 2021, Amazon took another step in its pursuit of global domination and launched a new storefront in Northern Europe, and another new Amazon affiliate program!
Amazon.pl was launched to support shoppers in Poland. This makes the 20th independent Amazon storefront worldwide now and the eighth in Europe (Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.fr, Amazon.de, Amazon.it, Amazon.es, Amazon.nl, Amazon.se being the other seven).
On October 28th, 2020, Amazon further expanded its global presence (again!) and not only launched a new storefront with Amazon Sweden, but also the new Amazon affiliate program!
Update 05/28/20:We have finally received PA API access for Amazon.ae, which means that we will now automatically localize and affiliate any Amazon links to or from the Amazon United Arab Emirates storefront! See below for more details.
Amazon continues to push towards global domination and bring its affiliate program along with it. Recently, Amazon has added affiliate programs for two more storefronts, Amazon.ae and Amazon.com.tr, bringing the total to 15 worldwide!
If you’re an Amazon Affiliate then you are likely familiar with the commission rates for referred sales. You get X% commission after you refer a buyer for a given product. But some may not be as familiar with the bounties that the Amazon Associates programs payout.
What’s a bounty, you ask? Besides helping Amazon sell products you can encourage your audience to things, such as signing up for an Amazon Prime trial, creating an Amazon Baby Registry, and recommending Audible subscriptions, which can earn you a decent-sized bounty. Amazon maintains a lengthy chart of various actions you can refer to, and the bounty paid for each. For example, successfully referring an Amazon Business account can earn you $15 per action. That could be much more profitable than referring video games with a 1% commission.
