Hi, can this be done from Mexico?

[@sheharbano7092]

Qq

[@ronhyatt4678]

Here in the US, as mentioned, the fair market value (FMV) of the products you receive for reviews under the Amazon Vine program is treated as "taxable income". Some people initially think that they will only have to pay "sales tax" on the product value, however in reality you (and the IRS) will receive a 1099-NEC for income tax filing, so how much you end up paying the government depends on your income tax bracket, not your States sales tax rate. This of course normally then also increases your state and local income taxes as well. Also per the Vine program rules you must keep the product and not destroy, give away or sell it for at least 6 months. Only then you can dispose of it as you wish. Not a bad program but you need to remember the tax consequences. You get the products "free" all year and people tend to go overboard, but then find out afterwards that they've created a tax problem for themselves.

[@allisonkelley8061]

What about states that don’t have state tax like Florida?

[@dan8326]

​@allisonkelley8061 sales tax is typical for almost all products and has nothing to do with any type of "income" tax. State and/or local "income" tax only applies if you have state and/or local income tax in your state and/or local municipality. IE... Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington and Wyoming, would have no state "income" tax.

[@akw829]

I'll agree however, the taxes aren't really an issue. I only say that because 13 years ago when I ran my ebay and Amazon stores, people would always say "but the taxes are insane." My response was always, you only pay zero tax if you make zero dollars. But sure, people will get hit with the full tax burden.

[@menow7903]

I am an Amazon Vine member in the UK. There are tax implications to membership in the US which we don't have in the UK. There is NO formula to being invited to take part so don't waste your time writing hundreds of reviews. I've written less than 100 and don't have expertise in any product niche. I have written positive reviews on things that I've really liked, and that's been a range of products. Never written a negative review as I'm a Prime member and just send back stuff I don't like. The invite to join Vine was a complete surprise to me and most of my family thought it was a scam. Some of the stuff that Vipon gives you discounts on are massively overpriced. No one would buy no-name earbuds for over £100 so a 90% discount isn't going to be very impressive. But you live and learn.

[@misbahmeymon1562]

Hey! How can one apply??

[@misbahmeymon1562]

I'm asking on someone's behalf.

[@HeyChickens]

I don't think you can apply. You have to wait for an invitation.​@@misbahmeymon1562

[@RachidaSajii-uo1tw]

How you take product ???like shipping please

[@menow7903]

they just ship it to you. @@RachidaSajii-uo1tw

[@ericac.4316]

Man thank you so much for the info. You explain so well without beating around the bush but straight to the point. I’m going to have to rewatch so I can do this.

[@mr.c1989]

Amazon terms and condition for the vine program requires that you cannot resell the products. In some markets, you're able to do as you wish with the products after maintaining ownership for 6 months. In the United States, it is not free. You have to pay taxes on the products.

[@viperstarpoint9]

In the US it is 6 months before you can sell, but you can destroy before that, and yes you do need to pay taxes on the products you get. Reselling stuff really won't happen until after you have had your first product for 6 months, and then you need to put in the work to sell said items where you may or may not have to pay tax on the income from the resale of the items.

[@ColorOfLove84]

You can claim it as a hobby. If you don’t know how you can speak to a tax expert in that subject on Turbo tax live.

[@akw829]

​@ColorOfLove84 You can't claim the actual free product as a hobby. Amazon will send you your 1099 form at years end. There is zero chance to claim that as a hobby. However, the RESELL of the product, that might be able to claim as a hobby. Though I've never dived into that information.

[@julieann5196]

I might have to start leaving more reviews on Amazon. I like free stuff. Thanks for this great info.

[@johnsnow5250]

Do you want a microphone

[@jacksoncampos6726]

Man, I managed to change my family's life with this!! Thank you very much

[@Dangerously_Satisfying]

Best video so far explaining this. Thank you

[@peterbridges8802]

Steve you are one of the few internet marketers that I actually believe. You are conservative and truthful in your analyses. Thank you for your sober minded candor. I am shocked at the number of Hustlers pretending to be LEGIT !!

[@unicrack]

UK reviewer here, We do NOT pay tax here in the UK. I was invited after leaving only 4 reviews I was not a prime member when invited

[@flyingsuitcase5275]

WOW! Very interesting, helpful, and informative. I really enjoyed how you broke all information down in a easy step by step process.

[@deusvlad2.083]

Just so you know legally your not allowed to sell your products for at least 6 months from receiving it.

[@cassiorodrigues800]

Amazing material, congrats. Very precise and professional.

[@dana_padrino]

You can’t do whatever you want with the products you’re not allowed to sell them on eBay at least according to the terms of service. You can give them away for free to friends and family or donate them but I’m pretty sure the contract states that you are not allowed to sell those products.

[@diekritischestimme]

It says something about 6 months you have to keep the product, since Amazon might ask you to send it back (in theory possible). After that it is technically yours and I don't think Amazon cares what you do with that thing. You could donate, throw it away or sell it.

[@dana_padrino]

That’s actually good news. I I thought it was you couldn’t sell the products at any time but I looked it up and you are correct. it does appear that after six months you are allowed to do whatever you want. I think most people looking at videos saying that you can sell the vine products don’t wait six months but try to sell it right away but at least you have that option.

[@danielsccot7141]

Only if you dont use the same brand and titles on other plat except amzon, you can sell it safely.

[@romeg4534]

It's only taxable because Amazon doesn't want to pay there taxes. It's called a sales tax not buyer/referral tax.

[@whiteswordwarrior9995]

Free stuff + income from it, and somehow youre still blaming amazon. Gtfo commie.

[@SKimilku]

I love Steve what an amazing teacher!!

[@RNDVUApp]

Use a planner to balance your work/life

[@bloadstar]

If a product's "value" is $100 and Amazon let's you get it for free/discounted, you get the product, review it, then resell it on ebay for $60, then aren't you supposed to report that $100 as income with your taxes, therefor hurting your return? Isn't it based on the "value" of the item, not what your resale was?

[@DeliaRoseReiki]

Thank you for this video. It was helpful but I need much more detail and to know how much each part of this costs. Overall, great video. Thanks!

[@lovelyrich54]

Who has ordered the ebook course? Who has tested products, got paid, and often?

[@melliflousbufo]

This is an extremely simplistic (and over-optimistic) view of both getting onto Vine, and staying on it. There's lots more accurate info about Vine on youtube and reddit. This video offers little constructive information on the vine program.

[@Motivational-videos100]

This was so helpful. I really want to know can you do this if you have no social media following?

[@sherinacharles930]

I paid for the Amazon reviews and I paid the program

[@XplorinWithPaul]

This entire video is just making him money. The sites that are still up are just coupons. And jumpsend doesn't even exist and amzon vine is invite only.. that title is a complete lie..

[@akw829]

Im confused. Something is off here. You mention that Amazon will keep sending you products or keep allowing you to order Vine listed products if you leave a complete review. But you also said you're not obligated to leave a review? But if you do not then they will not allow you to order free products? Okay, the next thing was that you mentioned that we should leave reviews on a wide range of products. However, you also said that we should only review products in a singular niche and become knowledgeable in that niche? There's a solid amount of double-talk going on here. And these are just 2 examples. Im sure i missed a few more.

[@Superweapons]

do you have to pay taxes with amazon vine program?

[@wahyukeren2904]

Hi, Are you interested in Amazon free products against review

[@Brosas93]

How do you flip vine products on ebay?

[@mr.assumptions]

I see you said that you sell on your own site as well as another. Do you sell on Amazon? I myself am an Amazon seller, but I noticed Amazon has a ton of fees based on what service and / or tools you use. I do understand why they do, but it makes it a bit harder for a smaller business that's just starting to make even a small profit. Product research seems to be a key element among many things.

[@vickienelson4602]

This is a great and helpful video. Thank you.

[@jewels_the_one_and_only6287]

🎉 congratulations on all your success

[@michaelgernold6056]

I went on Amazon and it says Vine is closed....

[@Carlsings]

Please please share what you think about and/or how you handle or can recommend handling the fact that Amazon Vine program sends you a 1099-NEC (non employee compensation) and most items use an ETV (Estimated Tax Value) to determine their value as "income", and it seems these products have to be claimed as INCOME to the IRS and State Tax (if any) when you file.

[@urmommabear5monthsago]

Yes they do send 1099 and you better have the actually cash to pay the tax because the IRS doesn’t barter

[@sherrym3284]

You mentioned flipping Vine products on Ebay? Amazon Vine states we're not allowed to sell the items we're sent. How can you claim this in your video?

[@CrystalLifeAfter40]

After 6months you can sell them not before then

[@sherrym3284]

Do you know anything about the state sales tax on Vine items? I keep reading that we'll be taxed 3 different ways. I'm in the clear regarding Federal IT but worried about Washingtons state sales tax. Can anyone shed some light on this? TIA@erCrystalDozier

[@Brentt777]

It's a clickbait video

[@Sanalivingood]

So, i saw Amazon sends invitation if i review often genuinely. Does that mean that i need to go back to my purchases list for some time in the past and leave a review where i didnt do that? Dies that increase chances to be invited? and what if my brand new KZbin channel is empty, i have not any followers yet?

[@Hydro-Ponik]

Amazon sells the same junk as DH gate for 2-3x the price for faster delivery. No wonder bezos bouncing around in the ozone layer in a space ship....

[@mattpipke5716]

How do I file my taxes concerning Vine items? I was under the impression that I needed to pay the state sales tax of the items I have received. I have not sold a single item.

[@corleonefalcone4327]

we are so desperate to continue view this kind of youtubers...they always want to teach you how to get money and it seem easy BUT NOT...fake things

[@TheLordJC]

1st timer here... & Thx....question.....which site sites DO U recommend BUT with reviews NOT with Video, just writing ones ?

[@CallCharlee916]

I have purchased a tone of products from Amazon. I get deliveries 1-4x per week. Can I go back in my previous orders and leave reviews to count toward the 100 needed to possibly get an invite?

[@user-nq1qd2om4k]

Hi , I’ve seen some of your KZbin videos . I wanted to ask you . When your children open their e- shop for shirts. Can they have their own Tax number or they just can use your tax number

[@agnesmasucol732]

Could you do this if you are a third party seller?

[@JourneywithTiffany]

Hi Steve! I am already an Amazon associate, but can’t get into the Amazon influencer program. So I I thinking right in that the Amazon influencer program is truly the only way to get to making money posting reviews?

[@RachidaSajii-uo1tw]

Where are you from??

[@rutehittle9698]

Where do you write the reviews?

[@DebbiesKitchenCorner]

Ok, so big question. I am in the vine program for over 2.5 years. I am also now an Amazon influencer. Can I use the free vine products to make a video for my Amazon influencer storefront or is that against Amazon policies? Also do I tell ppl in the video that I got it for free even though I have to pay taxes for it? 🤔

[@danielsccot7141]

No, if you take it from Vine, you can make video for the same listing in your storefront, but if the items are universal unbranded ones, you can add videos for different listings

Hi. Before you start advertising testing, please keep in mind that all of us, watching your video(s), are not living in the USA. Can we test also abroad? I doubt it very much. Amazon hardly will start shipping stuff to Europe. Thanks for the advice.

[@mr.c1989]

How would you know where all his viewers are from? He has a lot of USA viewers.

[@datcampg9297]

I don't believe Amazon notices your reviews, just the individual you buy it from. Amazon Vine would be nice, but I don't ever see it happening and I have left a lot of honest reviews from items I have purchased. 🙂

[@realworld2know]

Nice

[@thaerenglish84]

Can we do this from Iraq 😎???

[@big_vladi]

"vee-pon"

[@Hmath555]

Is this still available ?

[@TheYoutubeCarClub]

I’m interested

[@daved5023]

That's strange, in amz TOS they said your no longer to use rebaits to manipulate rank or gain reviews. Lol We used to use chat bots for this 2 to 3 yrs ago. I guess it's a limp risk to that too rule now since we see many sellers from. Other parts manipulate categories still and nothing happens to them like a bug zapper in snow shovel category gives it best seller lol.

[@hometheaterfever5]

If what you’re saying was true, you wouldn’t have said it!

[@Brentt777]

This video is clickbait. For one, all of this is pointless as most people aren't invited. You also are not allowed to sell any product for 6 months. Plus the product is used and loses value for that reason, and loses value over time. Plus most of the stuff is total crap that you can't return and you are stuck paying taxes on all of it. I am in Vine so I know. He is doing it to get people to sign up for his course.

[@mywifequitherjob]

Vine is only one way to get free products. There are several more. And I don't even teach this stuff... It's just a video

[@meking3258]

Ya always a catch buy 100 items help bozos billions grow and maybe theyll pick u 🤔
