North American distribution rights for any titles you enroll

Advantage is a consignment sales model. Payments are not based on orders shipped to Amazon.com. Instead Advantage payments are based upon units sold to customers. Payments are processed for units sold during a given month at the end of the following month. For instance, if a copy sells at any time during the month of January, Amazon.com will issue payment by the last day of February.
As customers order your items, we will monitor your inventory and automatically send orders to keep your item in stock. You will receive e-mail notification for all orders. The amount we order is based on the recent sales performance of your title.

Here are the three simple steps you need to follow to join Advantage:

Read the Membership Agreement and the Instructions & Rules for Advantage.

Submit an Advantage application on line, agree to the Membership Agreement and the Instructions & Rules, and enroll at least one item into your new account.

Within 5 days (usually within 48 hours), we will send you an e-mail notifying you if your application to Advantage has been accepted.
