Amazon is working with the New York Times, BuzzFeed and
other U.S.
publishers to get them to widen their international reach concerning shopping
sites, Recode reports.
Amazon pays publishers that send shoppers to
Amazon through their sites, and now “sources say Amazon has been proposing
various deals that would give publishers money up front in order to expand
their international sites or open up new markets,” Recode says.
Recode says it’s unknown what geographic areas
Amazon is targeting and if Amazon would pay for publishers’ growth or if it
would want to get paid back through money that comes through the affiliate
links.
Amazon, BuzzFeed and the Times declined to
comment to Recode on the matter.
