How Amazon pays affiliates in Nigeria

If you are into internet affiliate marketing in Nigeria, one of the things you'd probably want to know is how you are eventually going to get paid.

The popular payment methods for internet affiliates in Nigeria include Paypal, Wire transfer and foreign cheque. With Amazon, it is a bit different and that's why I believe Amazon is probably the best affiliate program you can do in Nigeria.

The Amazon associate program offers affiliate an opportunity to make money from their referrals and the average rate is about 4% and you can earn more if you get more conversions. As for the payment options, the ones that are workable for Nigerian residents include Gift cards and foreign cheque.

If you get paid by gift card, you can use if for shopping online at the Amazon store and there are a lot of product you can really buy and get it shipped to Nigeria using a mail forwarding address. You only need to earn at least $10 in order to get paid by gift card. As for the foreign cheque, you would need to earn at least $100.

Well, due to the fact that I don't trust snail mail cheques to Nigeria due to corruption in the postal system, I normally prefer getting paid via Amazon gift cards.

If you are an Amazon.com affiliate in Nigeria, how do you prefer getting paid?
