Affiliate marketers are again in danger of losing their businesses due to state NEXUS laws. What typically happens is the merchants decide to stop paying commissions to any affiliates in those states. This puts a lot of people out of business and leaves them with no income.
Here at Easy Product Displays, we try to keep an eye out for our members. Once again, some states have or are trying to push through a new NEXUS law, nicknamed Amazon law.
How can you protect yourself and the business you have spent so much time building? Don’t just let it all get stripped way from you!
Now, don’t panic but get yourself protected as quickly as possible. Protect your assets the same way the big companies do without all the hassle.

Affiliate marketers have been in the cross hairs of the states tax divisions for the last several years. Each year it is another state looking to collect taxes from online merchants without fully understanding the the devastating impact these cash grabs have on the work from home affiliate.
Unfortunately, the legislation put forth is rarely from someone who knows anything about affiliate marketing, nor do they seem to learn from the mistakes of other states.
When these laws go into effect merchants decide to stop paying commissions to any affiliates in those states, putting thousands of people out of work. So all of the income tax they could have collected from those individuals is now gone and the state is supporting those people who are now on welfare or unemployment. Plus, the state may have lost much of the sales tax they chose to collect because the marketer is no longer there to provide guidance for that consumer.
Do it before your merchants begin dropping affiliates. It’s harder to get back in once they have made the change.
