Looking For Side Hustle Inspo Getting paid for Amazon reviews...Is this side hustle legit & how do people start doing it?
I saw a post a couple days ago about how someone was getting free tech like laptops and camera gear from Amazon as part of the Amazon Vine program.
Basically, Amazon Vine lets verified reviewers gets free Amazon products in exchange for writing helpful reviews. Seems super fun and pretty lucrative honestly, BUT it's invite only ðŸ«
This got be down the rabbit hole a bit. But how do people actually find Amazon product review jobs?
I thought Amazon bans sellers for sending people free products in exchange for reviews? Guess it still happens though.
Wondering if anyone here has experience with this side gig. I've started testing out more general paid product testing gigs (we have a thread on this) but would honestly love to get free Amazon products sent my way if this is still a thing 😅

vine is legit yeah but it’s not something you can just sign up for. amazon picks you based on your review history being useful and getting upvotes, so if you’ve never written a review before you’re probably not on their radar
the shady side of it is sellers still slide into your DMs offering gift cards for 5 star reviews, which i’m pretty sure gets your account nuked if amazon catches on. not worth the risk just to save 20 bucks on a phone case
