🚨 5-MINUTE AMAZON ACCOUNT COMPLIANCE CHECK 🚨
Want to know one of the biggest reasons Amazon Influencers and Associates lose their accounts?
It’s usually not fraud.
It’s not because they were trying to break the rules.
It’s because they didn’t know they were breaking them. 😬
A small mistake today can put years of work and future commissions at risk.
Take 5 minutes and run through this checklist. Your future self will thank you. 👇
====================================
✅ STEP 1: CHECK YOUR APPROVED SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS
Head to:
Make sure EVERY platform where you share Amazon links is listed.
☐ YouTube
☐ Pinterest
☐ Instagram
☐ Facebook
☐ TikTok
☐ Blog/Website
☐ Beacons
☐ Linktree
☐ Any other public platform you use
⚠️ If Amazon sees traffic coming from a platform that’s not listed, it can create compliance issues.
====================================
✅ STEP 2: REVIEW YOUR DISCLOSURES
If you’re sharing Amazon affiliate links OR your Amazon Storefront, disclosures matter.
A simple disclosure can be:
“As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.”
Also consider platform disclosures when appropriate:
☐ #ad
☐ #affiliate
Check your:
📌 Pinterest Pins
🎥 YouTube Descriptions
📱 Social Media Posts
📝 Blog Posts
====================================
✅ STEP 3: PINTEREST AUDIT
Pinterest is one of my favorite traffic sources…
But it’s also one of the easiest places to accidentally create compliance issues.
Make sure you:
✅ Use original graphics
✅ Create your own pins
✅ Include disclosures when needed
Avoid:
❌ Downloading Amazon product images
❌ Copying Amazon listing photos
❌ Spammy affiliate-only pins
====================================
✅ STEP 4: YOUTUBE AUDIT
Review your recent videos and make sure:
☑️ Affiliate disclosures are present
☑️ Links are clearly labeled
☑️ Product recommendations are honest and authentic
Remember:
Trust converts better than hype.
====================================
✅ STEP 5: AVOID THESE ACCOUNT KILLERS
These are some of the most common mistakes I see creators make:
❌ Posting Amazon affiliate links inside PDFs, ebooks, or downloadable files
❌ Cloaking or hiding Amazon links
❌ Making unrealistic income claims
❌ Asking people to click your links “to support you”
❌ Making misleading product claims
====================================
✅ STEP 6: STOREFRONT CHECK
A lot of creators forget this…
Your Amazon Storefront is still connected to your Amazon Influencer account.
When sharing your storefront:
☑️ Use disclosures
☑️ Make sure the platform you’re promoting on is listed inside Amazon Associates
☑️ Follow the same compliance practices as affiliate links
====================================
💡 FINAL REMINDER
Amazon can change policies, update rules, and enforce compliance at any time.
Protecting your account is just as important as growing it.
One compliance mistake isn’t worth risking years of work.
Take 5 minutes today and do a quick audit.
Then drop a ✅ below when you’re done so we know your account is protected. 🔥
