Amazon to Relaunch California Associate Accounts
With this compromise in place I was curious if Amazon would reinstate their California-based Associate accounts so I shot off an E-mail to Amazon to ask that very question. Here is the reply I recieved from Amazon on September 25, 2011:
Hello Mark,
As you may have heard, California Governor Jerry Brown has signed legislation repealing the law that forced us to terminate our California Associates.
We’re working to relaunch the Amazon.com Associates Program in California as soon as possible. In the next few days, we’ll reach out to all affected past Amazon.com Associates with information how to re-open their accounts.
We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Good news, indeed! Perhaps Amazon will go the extra mile and give California Associates credit for purchases made through their sites since June 29, 2011? Time will tell.
