What Is Amazon Affiliate Program?
Amazon Affiliate Program is a program managed by the world’s largest online store.
They have varieties of products that everybody would love to buy.
The Amazon Affiliate Program (Amazon associates) allows you to promote links on your site.
You get paid when a customer purchases a product through your unique affiliate ID.
If you are new to Affiliate Marketing, I want to explain how affiliate marketing works and how lucrative it is for you as a blogger or publisher.
How Does Amazon Affiliate Work?
Amazon will pay you as an associate through commissions when someone makes a purchase using your unique affiliate ID.
There is no limit to what you earn from doing your job as an affiliate.
If a product from Amazon costs $3,000, and a customer purchased that product through your affiliate link.
Amazon is to pay a commission of 30% for that product that person purchased; you will end up earning $900.
Only for that product, the customer purchased through your link.
I hope that’s clear to you, and by now, you understand how affiliate marketing works.
PS: Note you will not earn a commission of 30% on products because every product and category has its commission rate.
Amazon Affiliate Program commission rate starts from 4% per Item and varies with products.

Step 3: Amazon Affiliate Phone Verification Problem Fixed
You have been trying to get a US phone number, and you have read a lot of tutorials online on how to get one.
But most of the tutorials you read did not tell you the process of getting the phone number. They will ask you to download the Text Plus android app, then install it and sign up.
On the process of doing it, you will get an error like,
“Sorry but Text plus cannot work in your country,“
or it will not give a response but keeps on loading with a circular icon on the screen of your Android device.
Well, it doesn’t work that way, read further to find out how to get FREE US Phone Number.
Here is the Big Catch
I have got you covered with the full tutorial on how to get the free US phone number. I will get you started right away.
But before we get things going, please minimize the Amazon phone verification tab and follow the below steps. To get you started, you will need to get a VPN App.
We will make use of Zenmate VPN; you can download it by following the download link I will be sharing in the next step.
Why You Need Zenmate VPN App
You need Zenmate VPN App to change your IP address to match that of the US. It will allow you to sign up on the Text Plus app and complete the registration for Amazon Affiliate Program In Nigeria. Without ZenMate, the Text Plus app won’t work.
Step 1: Download ZenMate VPN
- Download the ZenMate VPN app from the Google Play store and create an account. Zenmate will send you an email to verify your email address for you to start using the FREE 7 Days Premium trial of ZenMate VPN service.
- Login to the Zenmate app from your Android device and set the location to the United States. ZenMate will connect, showing a green logo and a key at the top of the notification bar of your Android device.
Step 2: Download And Install The Text Plus App.
Before you download the Text Plus App for Amazon phone number verification, make sure the Zenmate App is turned on, and the location is set to the United States.

Important: Make sure you are on the Verification page while placing the call
A 4-digit code will be auto-generated by Amazon on the registration page.
When the call comes in, click on the dial pad and wait till the caller tells you to punch the 4-digit code that is displayed on the Amazon affiliate Phone verification page.
After you must have done that, wait for a few seconds, then your screen should display the same message as seen on the image.

- Select your US account, and the below information should pop up.
- Open a new tab and login to your Amazon affiliate account.
- Navigate to settings, look under “Payment and Tax Information,” choose the “Change payment method.”
- Now, from the page, choose “Direct Deposit” as your payout option.
- Select “United States” as the country where your bank is located from the list.

Apart from payoneer is there any other method one could use to receive Amazon payment in Nigeria?
Great question Otobong, You can use the Gift card option, but I’d always advise anybody to make use of Payoneer as it is the safest method to use.
Hi Chukwuebuka, I’m glad this article was helpful to you and thank you for the notice, it has been fixed now.
Hey Sandra, I apologize for the late reply…
Answering your question.
1.) You are going to use the Payoneer account as described in the post (updated).
You should check how to add your Payoneer bank above click here to the section
2.) You should insert your residential or office address in the 1. That is the real address that you use and state in Nigeria.
As for the postal code, you can search for it on google e.g. Owerri Postal code will bring lists of postal codes in Owerri.
I hope this answers your question?
You are welcome Idayat, I’m happy you liked my service. Do share this page with you, social media friends.
Yes, but only after seven days of the FREE trial has expired. But, you should get the FREE seven days trial without adding your card, that’s how it should work.
If you have more questions, do let me know.
I recommend that you sign up and verify your zenmate Account using the web version before installing the app.
When you open the app, there is an option for you to login or sign up. Choose the sign up button to get started or follow this link at https://zenmate.com/signup/
By using the link above you should be able to sign up immediately.
Thank you.
I’ve not really tried it since I see no need for creating a US Facebook account.
You could try it to see the possible outcome although you might get banned.
Hi Gbemzy, you can choose to use Payoneer or Gift card to redeem your funds as payment for the affiliate sales made.
However, Payoneer is the best and easy since it is operated as a US based Bank.
I hope I have answered your question?
Do you have more questions to ask?
Please do!
