Anyone know of a site like My Points that offers points for shopping at Amazon.com? I shop there alot and none of the sites I work with, offer points per dollar to Amazon.com like they do other stores.
Thanks!

Coincidentally, I just cashed in a $20 payout in the form of Amazon Gift Codes from a survey site called TestSpin just today. They pay a dollar or two for each completed survey which they send by e-mail from time to time and the minimum payout is $10. Currently their only form of paying is Amazon credits, but they are working on getting PayPal too.

First, PM me the link and I'd like to join TestSPin. I do lots of survey sites and cash in about every other month on all of them and get nice stuff or gift cards. That is how I got several christmas gifts last year. I let them sit and cash out in November (so trhey are definately in my hand by christmas time) Will join under you if that is an option on the survey stie.
But what I meant was for a site where I can GET points per dollar when I buy something OFF of Amazon. com. I cash in survey sites for Amazon.com gift cards too, but since I do buy there often, I was hoping to get the points from a site like My Points and Creation Rewards. If you buy through stores through those sites, you get points per dollar and when you collect enough, you cash out for gift cards or Paypal cash.

Thanks much! But as far as I know testspin does not have a referral program, except for people who want to join their sales force so you can just sign up directly from their site which is testspin.com and OH! You mean like BlubMom! I think the reason that InboxDollars and Quickrewards do not include Amazon is that Amazon does not track the sales for them. There is a note about that on BondReward's site. You will see Amazon listed as a merchant there and on FatCash, for example, but with 0 points.
Tomorrow when New York's new law mandating tax on internet purchases goes into effect that is going to have a chilling effect on some of these programs. Dmitry of QuickRewards mentions it in his blog, since they are a New York-based company. He does mention though that Amazon has some legal action started that may turn it around for us.
Have you ever used evreward?

I have heard of 1 you mention but not the others. And tax on online purchase - that could hit hard! Good grief, can't we have anything? Does the IRS and Gov't have to take it all!?
I use My Points nad Creations Rewards and they have the option to Amazon.com, but no points. I was just hoping there was one out there that had the points! I do several others, but my main problem is I dont shop that much! Budget doesn't allow! So it isn't a huge problem, but one I was hoping maybe a kick back on if I could find it! I usually only by TV show DVDs there anyway.
Oh, that reminds me I just bought season 4 of hte Andy Griffith Show - got 1-5 now. Bought that with a free visual gift card I got elsewhere and Amazon.com was an option to buy. have to go find out the shipping status of that!

Amazon doesn't seem to qualify for most of these sites. I could never quite figure out why. I shop there as well a lot. It's a bummer.
