YouTube now lets creators tag Amazon products and earn commissions from purchases

YouTube now lets eligible U.S. creators tag Amazon products in Shorts, long-form videos, and livestreams, earning a commission on sales without using separate Associates links. Amazon supplies a curated catalog of trending items, and creators can request missing products or enable auto-tagging, with earnings shown in YouTube Studio and returns deducted from balances. Eligibility requires enrollment in YouTube’s Partner and Shopping Affiliate programs and an active Amazon Influencer or Associates account linked to the channel.
