Is anyone here a member of Amazon Vine?
I've been on Vine for three years now, and I'm surprised more isn't made of it in communities like this. It's well worth trying to get on to it, the amount of free stuff you get is obscene.

I'm not, but not for lack of trying. I've been posting reviews on Amazon for years, never a sniff of an invite for Vine. My dad was invited last year though, he likes it but he doesn't get offered much of the really good stuff like some do

I've never even heard of this. Seems like they keep that quiet

Sounds awesome, how do you apply for it?

You can't directly apply unfortunately, just have to keep reviewing stuff and hope you get invited.

Vine is completely invite-only, and the algorithm is notoriously mysterious. The best tip is writing thorough, helpful reviews on normal purchases with clear photos. Amazon prioritises accounts whose reviews get marked as helpful by other shoppers.

My brother got invited to Vine silver tier late last year. It is great for computer accessories, cables, and kitchen gadgets up to £82. Once you review enough items and hit gold tier, the higher-ticket tech items open up

The main catch with Vine in the UK recently has been tracking taxable value if you are doing it on a large scale, but for ordinary consumer goods it's genuinly amazing getting household items delivered for free just for writing an honest review
