I learned a few details which I didn’t understand the Amazon Associates program, for example about the fee for his or her checks. I have some amount accumulated to date with Amazon, however, haven’t requested a check nonetheless. As I understand bank transfer for EU subject will not work. So I guess you’ll have additional this within the cons.
Cannot understand that Amazon still uses this 19th-century check system for the affiliate program. Is there any indication they are planning to abandon it? many thanks.
