Our story

Built for shoppers, by a shopper.

BUCKS exists because product review sites have been quietly earning affiliate commissions on Amazon links for years — and keeping all of it. We thought that was backwards. If you're the one doing the shopping, you should get the cashback.

Mission

Return the commission to the person who earned it.

Amazon's Associates Program pays a commission on purchases made through affiliated links. For years, that money went to publishers and review sites. BUCKS routes it back to you instead.

We don't manufacture savings or invent discounts. We capture commissions that already exist in the Amazon ecosystem and redistribute them to the shopper. The price on every product remains exactly the same — we just change who benefits from the affiliate relationship.

🎯
One job
BUCKS does exactly one thing: earn affiliate cashback on Amazon.com. We will never expand into coupons, price comparisons, loyalty points, or subscription services.
🔍
Full transparency
We publish our affiliate rate schedule, disclose how commissions work, and show you every purchase at every stage of the payout process. No hidden fees, ever.
🔒
Privacy by default
We will never collect browsing history, build ad profiles, or sell user data. Our privacy model is structural: BUCKS cannot see data it does not have permission to access.

Business model

How BUCKS makes money — and how you do too.

We want this to be completely clear. No subscriptions, no data sales, no hidden revenue streams.

1️⃣
You shop on Amazon.com
BUCKS appends our Amazon Associates affiliate tag to eligible product page URLs. You complete your purchase normally at the standard Amazon price.
2️⃣
Amazon pays us a commission
Amazon's Associates Program pays us a commission that varies by product category — after the return window closes and the purchase is confirmed. See our rates page for current published rates.
3️⃣
We share it with you
We distribute the agreed portion of the commission to your BUCKS balance. We keep a small operational margin to cover infrastructure, PayPal fees, and development. The current rate split is published on our rates page.

Principles

What we believe.

🧩
Simplicity over features
We will not add features that complicate the core experience. BUCKS is a tool with one job. If a feature does not make cashback earning simpler or more trustworthy, we will not ship it.
🔓
Radical transparency
We publish our rate schedule, explain our business model publicly, and show every purchase at every stage. If you have a question about how any part of BUCKS works, the answer should be findable on this site.
🛡️
No dark patterns
We will never use confusing language to hide fee structures, bury important disclosures in footnotes, or use psychological tricks to get you to keep using the product. Plain English, always.
🏗️
Built to last
BUCKS is not a growth-at-all-costs startup. We are building a small, sustainable tool that works reliably for the long term. No venture capital, no pressure to expand into things that compromise the product.
