Media resources for BUCKS.
Everything a journalist, blogger, or podcaster needs to cover BUCKS — key facts, press contact, brand guidelines, and a plain-English summary of what the product does.
What BUCKS is
The 50-word version.
Amazon's Associates Program has paid commissions on affiliate links since 1996. Product review sites, YouTube channels, and blogs have collected those commissions for decades. BUCKS is built on a simple premise: the shopper should get that money.
The extension has a deliberately narrow scope: one browser permission (access to amazon.com), no browsing history collection, and no presence on any other website. Cashback is paid via PayPal once the Available balance reaches $5.00.
Key facts
Accuracy guide
Please get this right.
A few common mischaracterisations we want to help you avoid.
- "BUCKS earns affiliate commissions on Amazon.com and pays them to the user."
- "The cashback comes from Amazon's Associates Program, not from discounts."
- "BUCKS does not change the price the user sees or pays on Amazon."
- "The extension only activates on amazon.com pages."
- "BUCKS gives you discounts on Amazon." (It does not — cashback is post-purchase.)
- "BUCKS reduces Amazon's prices." (Prices are never affected.)
- "BUCKS is affiliated with Amazon." (It is an independent affiliate, not an Amazon product.)
- "BUCKS tracks your Amazon purchases." (Only affiliate-reported data, not full order history.)
