How to sign up for an Amazon Smile Account

Before we get into the “how-to”, let's define the “what is.” What is Amazon Smile? Amazon Smile is a program designed for Amazon to give back to Nonprofits. A shopper goes to smile.amazon.com, and .5% of the purchase goes to the Nonprofit that the shopper selected, as long as the purchase is eligible for the program. Once the transaction is complete, the shopper then can see their personal impact and other's impact. It makes the shopper feel a little less guilty about the shopping 😉 .

Step one: Gather the following information and have it readily available:

  • Your Charitable Organization's Name or EIN number
  • An evergreen email address that you can use to confirm your status (example: info@organization.com)
  • Your organization's bank account information
  • A copy of a voided check or bank statement

Step two: Once you have all information gathered, head to org.amazon.come to get started registering.

Step three: Search for your Organization's Name or EIN number and select your organization. Be sure to check the address and description of the organization because a lot of organizations have very similar names to yours.

Step four: Create an organization administrator account and accept the participation agreement. This is where you will want to use the evergreen email address that you have already, or have just created.

Step five: Verify your email address. Follow the prompt.

Step six: Enter your organization's bank account information. 

Step seven: Submit a copy of either a voided check or a bank statement. This is used to verify your organization's information.

Step eight: Let your supporters know that you are now an Amazon Smile account!
