After a decade, Amazon discontinued their Smile for non-profits in February, 2023. Whether or not your church or ministry made use of their program – giving you 0.5% for eligible purchases – here’s an excellent alternative for AmazonSmile.
Obviously, there’s a significant lesser amount of products, to say the least. There’s no comparison with the giant retailer. This alternative, though, will give you 100 times more than the 0.5%.
And…
You’ll have “lifetime referral commission,” which means that every first-time buyer will be permanently linked to your affiliate account – for all their future purchases.
This affiliate program is specifically for churches and ministries. When you register, you’ll be able to share your unique link with your email list and on your social media.
You can also have your own page, listing the books and book deals of your choice.
For example: https://store.christ-centered-books.com/name-of-your-church-or-ministry
Your church or ministry will receive 50% for each purchase.
Through your affiliate dashboard, you can easily see how many have clicked your affiliate link, who has made a purchase, and how much commission you will receive.
There’s complete open and automatic reporting.
Classic Christian Books
This alternative for AmazonSmile is about classic Christian books that will encourage your audience in their faith and walk with Jesus.
You simply share books that have been a blessing to innumerable believers throughout the years, decades, and even centuries.
In order to make it appealing, there are $4.00 book deals. These book deals consist of numerous books by a particular author or are about a specific subject.
For example, “30 Classic Books on Prayer,” “32 Books on the Holy Spirit,” “42 Books by C.H. Spurgeon,” “26 Books by D.L. Moody,” “53 Books by H.A. Ironside,” and many more.
Or, you can share a $100 gift card for only $12.00, which will give your audience all twenty classic Christian book deals.
The bottom line…
As a church or ministry, you can always do more for people in need, right?
When you register as an affiliate, you’ll receive 50% for each purchase through your unique link.
While you can certainly do the math, here’s a general overview of the $12.00 gift card:
500 purchases will give you $3,000
1,000 purchases will give you $6,000
2,500 purchases will give you $15,000
5,000 purchases will give you $30,000
7,500 purchases will give you $45,000
10,000 purchases will give you $60,000
25,000 purchases will give you $150,000
How much will your church or ministry receive if 5%, 10%, or even 15% of your email list or social media followers were to buy the gift card?
While this alternative for AmazonSmile may be incredibly limited when it comes to the available products, the results can be far better.
You’ve nothing to lose and only additional funds to gain.
