Your customers can now shop from Amazon through Pinterest, and LinkedIn launches its own creator marketplace

The online high street just got the coolest new store.

Pin it, then cash it: Pinterest’s new Amazon Storefront linking lets eligible creators auto-apply affiliate links to their Pins. No manual IDs, no fuss.

For the uninitiated, Amazon Storefront lets creators build a curated shop of recommended products and earn commissions on sales.

Now those picks travel straight onto Pinterest, and creators get their Storefront handle featured right on their profile.

Pinterest says more than half of its 631M monthly users show up to shop and fire off over 80B searches a month. That’s a serious pool of high-intent eyeballs.

So if you or your partners run Amazon affiliate programs, this is an easy way to expand reach across both platforms.

Meanwhile, LinkedIn wants to play matchmaker: Its new Creator Marketplace lets you find and partner with vetted creators directly.

Search by topic and expertise, size up each creator’s audience, performance, and fit, then slide into the DMs.

It lives in Campaign Manager and rolls out first in the US and Canada. Creators self-enroll through a fresh Monetization tab.

LinkedIn also debuted BrandWorks, a team of brand, creative, and content experts who give B2B marketers hands-on strategy support for higher-performing campaigns.

The logic is simple. Creator-led promotions drive better response, and revenue share keeps top voices posting, which keeps engagement and your ad opportunities flowing.
