How to make money on Amazon and get the free $5 for you and friend on the Amazon Shopping App
“Invite your friends to use the Amazon Shopping App. We will give your friends a $5 coupon to shop at Amazon. We will also give you a $5 coupon, when your friends make their first purchase in the app (currently in US only).”

- Choose “Your Account” then Personalized Content: “Invite Friends”.
- From here, you can invite friends from your contact list or send them a code through text social media, email, and more.
