Amazon Blacksmith to Retire

Monetize Your Twitch Content

Amazon Blacksmith Plug-In Is Sunsetting

As of July 30, 2021, content creators on Twitch can no longer enjoy the benefits of Amazon Blacksmith, a revenue-generating feature formerly known as Gear on Amazon. While Amazon Blacksmith will no longer be available, users can still make money by promoting products through the Amazon Associates program.

Amazon Blacksmith was a valuable tool for streamers seeking to share their favorite products with their audience and earn commission on sales. Despite its discontinuation, Amazon remains committed to supporting its partners and providing them with additional opportunities for success through its affiliate marketing programs.

The closure of Amazon Blacksmith marks a shift in Amazon's strategy, as the company focuses on consolidating its affiliate offerings and providing a more streamlined experience for both creators and viewers alike. Content creators are encouraged to explore alternative methods of monetizing their content and leveraging the extensive resources available through Amazon's affiliate programs.
