    Get in touch with Amazon. They have the REAL REASON
    why your referral account was closed. Every reason we
    offer here is PURE GUESS or SPECULATION.

    1. It means your account is closed and is not generating money for you. You are no longer an Amazon affiliate.

    2. You need to find out from Amazon why it was closed.

    3. Depending on the closure reason take available action, if any, to get it reopened.

        If you are not from one of the excluded states then it would indicate that you may have broken one of the TOS (terms of service) rules but you should of received notification if you had done this.

        As mentioned the best course of action in this case is contact Amazon directly (they have instant chat) anf find out why and then correct any infraction and then ask for reinstatement.

        good luck

    Some states have started trying to make Amazon collect sales taxes for Affiliates who are from said states. Rather than collecting those taxes, Amazon is simply dropping affiliates who are from those states.

    My guess is you live in one of the states amazon will no longer allow affiliates. However go over their terms as you may have broken their policy in some way in which made them close your account. If you did not get a letter before hand then My guess is you broke their terms. But a not showing a price range but instead the exact price. Which is against there policy for affiliates. Or soveral other factors. I my self lost my account when they passed the dum nexus tax law in illinois that took away half my business and have been fighting to get it back ever sense.

        Singapore should be ok. I'm earning 1k+ per month using Amazon affiliate. Hope you get back your account soon.

        They may terminate your account because violate the TOS. You may check the associated email and see the reason.
        It looks they have a review campaign.

          I think your account got closed due to the missing Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) declaration deadline (November 1, 2015).

      I would recommend going back to your email and check your spam folder. They probably sent u an email and it may get caught by in the filter.

      Amazon does close accounts in an automated fashion ( your account may have been closed for no reason at all but the fact that you didn't generate transactions on timely manner, etc, if that is the case the email will mention it ).

      I would recommend try contacting amazon ( but don't expect much amazon sucks in supporting affiliates )

      Best of luck both way, i hope it is just of their automated kicks, as this usually allow you to re-join

            Same here.

            The messed up thing though is that I still have yet to pay sales tax on any Amazon order I make
