Hey guys, just wanted to keep everyone up to date on new policies with the Amazon Merch aka Merch By Amazon Program. If you watch my videos you may have heard me mention before that if your account isn't being used it can be suspended.

I've actually been contacted by some people who said dude what the heck, I was never even accepted, I go to login and it says I'm suspended, WTF?

Okay so a while back I made a video titled 10 things I learned about Amazon Merch from Glen over at Hustler Hacks. If you missed it you can watch the video in it's entirety at the link below...

Anyhow, Glen had also touched on this. He talked about people's unused accounts being closed, and he even said some people who had uploaded maybe 1-3 shirts but hadn't been very active had even had their accounts suspended.

So Amazon has recently offered some clarification on this policy and this is what it is. From the time you are accepted you must upload a shirt within the first 120 days or your account will be closed. Many people are dying to get into Merch so if you're fortunate enough to get in take advantage of the opportunity.

Lastly, one other tip I want to give you guys. Many people are reporting that they were accepted, but never receieved a formal e-mail letting them know. I would suggest to those of you who have applied and are waiting for approval, login to your account and just double check that you havn't been accepted and don't even know it or havn't been notified. 

I would also suggest that even if your not yet accepted that you login to your account every 30 days, if not even more frequently, to make sure you havn't been accepted but not notified as it would suck to get accepted just to have your account shutdown before you even get to use it.

Hope that helps. Thansk for watching. I'll catch you on the next  video.
