Amazon Associates AU review

Commission runs Up to 12% per sale, paid on a cost per sale model. That is the top of the range, so most products sit below the ceiling. Individual categories can differ, so the rate you earn depends on what your audience actually buys.

The cookie window lasts 1 day. The ecommerce and retail group median is 30 days, so this is a short window by comparison. A shopper who leaves and comes back the next day may not count.

The programme covers a single country, Australia. Regional is listed as a single-country programme rather than a global one, which keeps the offer and its shoppers focused. Audience outside the country falls outside what this programme is built for.

Enrolment is direct, running straight through the retailer's own affiliate programme rather than through a network. The model is cost per sale, so no lead or action payment is involved. You create a publisher account with the retailer and use its own links.

No recurring commission is listed. The model is cost per sale, so each payment depends on a completed purchase rather than an ongoing subscription. Recurring programmes are more common in the software and web hosting groups than in retail.

Support runs through a help centre, which is where policy and payout questions get answered. Across the wider site, 76.1% of programmes offer a help centre, with email at 44.8%. Plan questions before your traffic grows.

It suits people already writing about products, comparing prices or listing deals for an Australian audience. A single-country programme with a cost per sale model rewards intent, not traffic. Review and buying-guide formats tend to convert better than general browsing traffic.
