Beginning on March 1,2017 changes are being made to the Amazon Affiliate Program. The biggest change is they have eliminated the “sell more make more” higher payout fees. Whether you sell one or hundreds of an item as an affiliate the fee rate stays the same. Yikes! The old fee structure looked like this:           As you can see in the chart above, in the old structure, expiring March 1st, your commission rate rose based on an increase in the volume of sales. In the new fee structure your fee rate will be based on the category of the item sold. See the new schedule below.
