How Much I Earned From Social Media This Month as an "Influencer" (Affiliate Income Breakdown)
Share
Summary
Hi, hello! Nearly a million views on Instagram, 4.3 million on Facebook, 16,000 new followers between them — and Meta paid me exactly $0. So this month I added up what my affiliate links actually earned, program by program, because gatekeeping is lame and we're not lame here.
- The grand total was $196.96 across eBay, Amazon, Whatnot, Singer, and Grabby — with Whatnot's $120 the only part that's actually landed in my account so far.
- Amazon is the funniest one: I sent them about $1,400 in sales and earned $38 for it. Hey, $38 I didn't have before.
- Some programs paid nothing this month (CapCut, Repurpose referrals, Vendoo), and that's fine — this is a trajectory thing, not a jackpot thing.
- If it holds, that's roughly $200 a month extra just for sharing stuff I already use. If you want to start earning on your own content whether or not Meta pays you, follow along — I'm happy to help.

Hi. Hello. I'm Sammy. I get a bazillion views on things on the internet sometimes, and I thought I would talk about how much money I made this month. Let's take a look. This month on Instagram, I got nearly 1 million views, over 5,000 new followers. On Facebook, 4.3 million views, 11,000 new followers, and do you know how much they paid me? $0. As an eBay ambassador, I've earned $2.64. Technically, I have $6.63 because I got a bonus. Daddy Bezos has helped me earn $38. I've earned for him how much? Oh, $1,400. But hey, I'm getting 38, so I'm not mad about it. Singer as an affiliate for them. I've made three sales and I'm getting $33.89
on Repurpose. I've gotten a referral, but I ain't getting no money. Then we have uh my whatnot affiliate link. They have paid me $120. The rest is still pending. I am also an affiliate for Grabby through this site and I've earned $2 through that, $0 on Cap Cut and all of the others that aren't Grabby. On Vendue, nothing. And that is where I'm at now. So, let's add them all up. We have $2.64 64 from eBay, $38.35 from Amazon, $120 from whatnot, $33.89 from Singer, $2.7 from Grabby. That equals $196.96.
Of course, of that, I've only actually received 120, but still, that's $120 I didn't have just for sharing something that I already used. So, I'm definitely not mad at that. And if it stays on this type of trajectory, then I know that I'm going to have at least like $200 extra dollars a month, which is great because I'm sorry, are you aware of how [ __ ] expensive college is?
