Viral Vue directly integrates with Amazon’s Sponsored Products for Creators program, unlocking another way for creators to earn earnings per click (EPC) without adding extra manual work.
What Is Sponsored Products for Creators?
Sponsored Products for Creators is a program that allows eligible creators to earn on a per-click basis for qualified clicks on Amazon products. Unlike standard commissions, which only pay when a sale is made, this program lets you earn even if a click doesn’t result in a sale. Earnings apply only to valid, human clicks (no bots or click farms)
Key points:
Eligibility: You must be a Gold Creator or above.
Earnings: Estimated earnings per click (EPC) vary, typically $0.12–$2 per click, with some products paying even more.
Integration: Viral Vue integrates directly to help you view campaigns, EPC, deal types, and product insights.
Affiliate+ vs. Sponsored Products for Creators
- Per-Sale Payouts: You earn a higher percentage whenever someone buys through your link.
- Viral Vue Brand Messaging: This is where you can send messages to brands using Viral Vue’s Send Messages or Send Bucket Messages features to request free product samples.
- Requirement: Available to creators at the Bronze Tier and above.
- Per-Click Payouts: You earn revenue based on the traffic you drive, regardless of conversions.
- No Messaging: You cannot send messages to brands from this tab.
- Requirement: Exclusively available to creators with Gold status and above.
How to Accept Sponsored Products Campaigns
Follow these steps to start earning with Sponsor Products for Creators:
Log In to Viral Vue extension and Go to your Creator Connections dashboard.
Navigate to the Sponsored Products for Creators section. Amazon will show campaigns recommended for your storefront.
Review Campaigns: Look at the EPC, deal type (e.g., lightning deal or best deal), estimated budget, and product info.
Accept Campaigns: Click the Accept Sponsored Products Campaigns button. You will see three settings to choose from:
Tagged ASINs: Select this to match campaigns with ASINs you’ve already tagged in your content. This ensures you’re promoting products you have direct experience with or have content ready for.
Media Links: Use this to include content from your YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or other social media links. This helps Amazon cross-check your existing content and increases the chances of qualifying for campaigns.
URL Vue Links: If you use URL Vue for deep linking, selecting this ensures your links are included automatically, streamlining campaign submissions.
Avoid the “Accept All” Button: Only accept campaigns you truly intend to promote or already have content for. Blindly accepting all campaigns can put you in a gray area with Amazon’s guidelines and may risk disqualification from earnings.
Submit Content: Click Submit Sponsored Products Content button.
Viral Vue will automatically match your content with eligible campaigns and submit it to Amazon.
Track Results:
Accepted campaigns will appear under the Accepted tab.
Submitted content links will appear under Submitted Content links, showing which videos or posts are linked to each campaign.
Automation Tip: Run this automation weekly or as needed. Depending on the number of ASINs in your storefront, it can take 10–30 minutes to complete.
Schedules: Lets you set automation to run at a specific time so you don't have to watch it while it's running, saving you time. The browser just needs to be running in the background with no specific tab required. The schedule follows your local time zone, so make sure to set it accordingly. Please note that content submission is not part of the schedule automation. The schedule only handles finding and accepting campaigns, so you will still need to submit content through the Submit All Content automation separately. If you plan to run the schedule overnight, make sure your computer is set to not sleep, otherwise the automation may stop mid-process.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can I earn EPC and standard commissions?
Yes. EPC earnings are in addition to standard Amazon commissions.
Can I earn EPC and Affiliate Plus on the same product?
No. If both apply, Affiliate Plus takes priority.
What are the two types of campaigns in Creator Connections?
There are two separate programs within Creator Connections:
Affiliate+ Campaigns - Earn increased commissions for every sale you drive. You can request free product samples and this program is available for Bronze Tier and above.
Sponsored Products for Creators - Earn on a per click basis instead of per sale. Free samples are not available here and you need to be Gold status and above to access it.
Does Viral Vue work with both programs?
Yes! Viral Vue works with both Affiliate+ and Sponsored Products for Creators. It automates finding and accepting campaigns as well as submitting content for both programs.
Why doesn't my Product Vue data match between the two programs?
Since Affiliate+ and Sponsored Products for Creators are two separate programs that work differently, Product Vue and some Viral Vue data points will not match between them. If Product Vue doesn't seem to be showing the data you're looking for, make sure you're on the correct tab for the program you're using.
I just reached Gold tier, but I don't see the Sponsored Products for Creators features from Viral Vue yet. Why?
Sponsored Products for Creators is an Amazon program. It can take a few weeks before it becomes available on your Amazon Creator Connections account after reaching Gold status. Only then can the Viral Vue SPCC features become available to you.
When I try to refresh my CC earnings for both Affiliate+ and Sponsored Products to sync them to the profits dashboard, I get a confirmation saying "SPCC earnings off." What does that mean?
- No Program Access: You do not have Sponsored Products for Creators (SPCC) available on your account yet. This program is exclusively for Gold status and above. If you are currently in the Bronze or Silver tier, this feature remains off.
- No Earnings Yet: You have Gold status, but you have not generated any SPCC earnings for that specific Store ID yet. Unlike Affiliate+, which pays per sale, SPCC pays on a per-click basis.
