Questions and answers on the topic

Amazon has multiple Amazon Associate Programs. To date, participants in these Associates Programs – e.g., a participant in the US Associate Program, with a bank account within the EU, or a participant in the EU Amazon Associates Program, with a bank account in US – have not had the option to receive international payments by bank transfer. International Payments could only be made via check, or Amazon Gift Card

With a residence or bank account within the supported countries, you can now receive income payments from any of the seven selected Amazon Associate Programs (including all of our EU programs) by convenient transfer to your bank account.

What Are The Advantages of Simplified Payment?

The benefits are clear: Participants in an Amazon Associates Program in the US, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, or CA, who have a bank account located in one of the 52 selected countries, denominated in the applicable currencies, can now receive international earnings from these Associates Programs by convenient bank transfer to their bank account. This removes the delays caused by the postal delivery of a check and the need to wait for a check to clear in the banking system.
