Every rec can pay. Zero platform cut.

The comment section is not a storefront.
If fans have to ask “Amazon or Bookshop?” under every haul, your bio is failing the one job it has: close the loop from video → title → purchase.
- Per-title buy buttons sit on the cover they already recognized.
- Disclosure still belongs to you (FTC / platform rules).
- We never skim your affiliate commission. Ever.
Affiliates vs digital shop fees
Two money paths. Don’t mix them up.
| Retail affiliates | Digital shop (your files) | |
|---|---|---|
| Platform cut | Always 0% | Free: 10% + Stripe · Pro/Author: 0% + Stripe |
| Best for | Book recs & hauls | PDFs, guides, art packs |
| Where it lives | Per-title buy button | Shop tab on your bio |
| You need | Amazon / Bookshop account | Files + Stripe |
How creators actually use it
Haul shelf, tagged
Film the unbox. Drop covers into “this week’s haul.” Each title already has your Amazon tag.
Indie-friendly path
Prefer Bookshop.org? Use it. Pro multi-retailer lets fans pick without a second link in the bio.
Series order + buy
Authors and romantasy recs: shelf is reading order. Buy sits on book 1 so nobody starts on book 3.
Story sticker → same URL
Instagram sticker and TikTok bio point at one shelf. You update books, not captions.
Keep 100% of the commission.
Free shelf. Affiliate tags. Live before your next haul.
