- The influencer-marketing platform Captiv8 analyzed data to find the top creators on Amazon Live.
- Here’s a breakdown of the top influencers on Amazon livestreaming to followers.
Amazon uses its influencer network to sell products and promote sales all year, but especially during Prime Day. Amazon Live, the company’s live video streaming platform, is one of the tools available to influencers for content creation and monetization.
Amazon launched the live-shopping feature for influencers in 2019 and collaborates with creators in a variety of content categories, including fashion, home, beauty, and technology. The program pays on a commission basis, and creators who are accepted into Amazon’s influencer program earn a commission when a product is purchased using their personalized link.
Although the tool has struggled to gain traction, some creators have found success, such as Tamara Bradshaw, who told Insider she earned a six-figure income through livestreaming.
