My side hustle is so good it pays my mortgage EVERY month – if you shopped on Amazon Prime Day you need to hear about it
A WOMAN has claimed she made £18,000 in 12 months working just ONE hour a week thanks to her Amazon side hustle. Renata Rabuha, from the US, revealed how she uploads 30-60 second videos of the items she has bought from Amazon at home. 3 Renata Rabuha claimed that she pays her mortgage by the Amazon Influencer Program Credit: TikTok / @renatarabuha Hailing it as the 'easy side hustle no one is talking about', she said it's particularly perfect if you've snapped up numerous items on Prime Day. In a clip on her review videos and make your money back. 'Doing this pays my mortgage every single month and I never post the reviews to social media." She explained how Amazon pays her for making product review videos - but not the ones you see under the regular reviews. Renata added: 'This is totally different. 'Amazon has a program that literally anybody can join. 'It's not an invite—you can apply for it. Literally anybody can do it, and there is a two-step approval process. 'But once you're in, it is so simple. Literally anybody can do it. Most read in Fabulous 'What you do is take products you already have in your house, make a 30 to 60 second video, and post that video directly to Amazon. 'Those videos get shown on product listings. I earn cash by selling 'actual rubbish' on eBay - I flogged a freebie I found on the floor by a bin for £10, it's crazy Whenever somebody clicks on your video and watches it, you do get a commission. 'Last year, I made over $24,000 literally reviewing the stuff that I already had at home.' HOW SHE DOES IT Renata makes cash through the Amazon Influencer Program. This allows content creators to earn commissions by posting video reviews, unboxings and how-to clips. These videos appear directly on Amazon product listings, and if someone watches your video and makes a purchase, you earn a cut. Anyone can apply, and no invite is required, and you get paid per qualifying purchase, not just views. It's different from regular Amazon reviews you see, as the influencers get paid for their videos. To qualify, you typically need an active social media account (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, or Facebook) and a moderate following, but no huge audience required. 3 She claims she made £18,000 in 12 months working just ONE hour a week thanks to her Amazon side hustle Credit: TikTok / @renatarabuha You need to be producing 'quality, authentic content' on your page. The two-step verification process includes checking that you're a real content creator with an active presence and real engagement. If you pass the first step, you'll be asked to submit 3 sample videos reviewing items. Once approved, you'll get access to your own Amazon storefront and be able to post videos that appear on actual product listings. From there, you can start earning commissions on qualifying purchases from viewers who watch your videos. 3 UK influencers can recommend products to your audience, and then earn a commission Credit: Getty IS IT IN THE UK? The Amazon Influencer Program is available in the UK - but it is slightly different. You first need to apply via and create a storefront. Once this is done, you can create content and recommend products to your audience, and then earn a commission. The website states: 'There are multiple ways you can earn. 'You can monetise your social media content by sharing your storefront URL or through affiliate links. 'We may also surface the content you have posted to your storefront to Amazon shoppers, allowing you to gain more followers and earn from new customers.'

To reliably publish shoppable videos and earn commissions, most UK creators join via the US program, using products that are also listed on Do I need to pay tax on my side hustle income? MANY people feeling strapped for cash are boosting their bank balance with a side hustle. The good news is, there are plenty of simple ways to earn some additional income - but you need to know the rules. When you're employed the company you work for takes the tax from your earnings and pays HMRC so you don't have to. But anyone earning extra cash, for example from selling things online or dog walking, may have to do it themselves. Stephen Moor, head of employment at law firm Ashfords, said: "Caution should be taken if you're earning an additional income, as this is likely to be taxable. "The side hustle could be treated as taxable trading income, which can include providing services or selling products." You can make a gross income of up to £1,000 a year tax-free via the trading allowance, but over this and you'll usually need to pay tax. Stephen added: "You need to register for a self-assessment at HMRC to ensure you are paying the correct amount of tax. "The applicable tax bands and the amount of tax you need to pay will depend on your income." If you fail to file a tax return you could end up with a surprise bill from HMRC later on asking you to pay the tax you owe - plus extra fees on top.

Who scored big on Prime Day - You or Amazon?
Midnight marked the end of Amazon Prime Day, the first since it launched its dedicated Irish website, It is one of the e-commerce giant's biggest shopping events, rivaling or even surpassing Black Friday and Cyber Monday for Amazon itself. "We are excited to bring our first dedicated Prime Day to Irish customers, following our launch in March," said Ali Dunn, Ireland Country Manager at Amazon. While Prime is still relatively new in Ireland, the company said it is focused on delivering on convenience through fast delivery, savings and events like Prime Day. "We remain committed to continuously adding more value for members in all the countries we serve, including Ireland." Amazon employs around 6,500 people in Cork, Dublin, and Drogheda, and since 2004, the retail behemoth has made direct investments in its operations here of more than €22 billion. It has opened six sites across the country, including what Amazon terms "a fulfilment centre" in Dublin's Baldonnell Business Park, a delivery station in Ballycoolin, data centres, and two corporate offices in Cork and Dublin. But, long before Amazon added .ie, thousands of Irish businesses had the Irish domain. At the end of last year, the database of .ie domains was 326,562. Many have invested significantly in their online operations in order to compete with the likes of Amazon, according to Jean McCabe, CEO of Retail Excellence Ireland. "Amazon has been part of the retail landscape in Ireland for some time, and while initiatives like its Prime Day might lead to a short-term boost in sales for some retailers who use the site," she said, "the bigger picture in the industry is of numerous innovative Irish retailers who themselves consistently offer world-class products and optimal service, and have also invested significantly in their online operations so they can realistically compete with larger players when it comes to features like click-and-collect or same-day delivery." Prime 'Day' is a misnomer because while it was originally a single sales day 10 years ago, it has grown into a multi-day event. Keeping 'Day' in the title is effective though, as it suggests urgency, keeping customers engaged and encouraging them to act quickly to bag a bargain. This year, Amazon Prime Day spanned four days, running from July 8 to 11. While it was in full swing, a survey commissioned by Aviva Insurance Ireland was published, shedding light on the online shopping habits of Irish consumers more generally. There was plenty of positives for Amazon and other online retailers, as it revealed that 29% have increased their shopping online for household and clothing items compared to their in-store spending in the last 12 months. While 20% claimed to have only increased their online shopping slightly, 9% say they have increased it significantly. The survey sought to understand the key drivers as to why consumers are choosing to shop online rather than in-store for household items and clothes. The convenience of shopping from home is the number one reason amongst 54% of consumers, followed by a belief that they find better prices and discounts online (51%). Prime Day generates billions in sales within a short window for Amazon - online spending was expected to surge to $23.8 billion across US retailers, and sales were projected to rise 28.4%, according to Adobe Analytics. Prime Day is only available to Prime members; customers who have subscribed, and membership is available for €6.99 per month or €69.90 annually per year. The subscription strategy is a retail power play by Amazon. According to the company's own figures, there are more than 200 million paid Prime members across 26 countries. "Most members choose to remain with Prime once they experience the unparalleled value," it said. Prime members shop more frequently and spend significantly more than non-members, because the subscription creates a psychological commitment - shoppers want to "get their money's worth," so they prioritise Amazon over competitors. It generates consistent revenue for the online retail giant, even when members are not shopping on its site, and the customer engagement gives Amazon deeper behavioral insights, improving targeting for advertising and product recommendations. Prime also enhances the perception of Amazon as fast, convenient, and premium, so it is not just a shipping perk - it's a strategic engine that boosts sales and loyalty. Amazon uses Prime Day to entice new customers to sign up, and many remain paying subscribers, generating recurring revenue long after the event.
