Amazon Vine

Amazon Vine allows eligible sellers to receive up to 30 honest reviews from trusted “Vine Voices” before a product even goes live, which can help boost sales by up to 30%.

First, trusted reviewers get early access to products. Then, their in-depth feedback appears as verified reviews. This social proof improves visibility and trust from day one.

If you’re a brand-registered seller with eligible FBA listings, and you operate in a major Amazon marketplace, you’re eligible to start using Amazon Vine. You’re only charged if a review is posted within 90 days—so, $75 for 3 to 10 reviews, and so on.

RevenueCat

FYI, app pals.

RevenueCat helps app teams manage in-app purchases and subscriptions across iOS, Android, and the web.

It handles the technical details like receipt validation and platform updates, so devs can focus on building features instead of maintaining billing code.

Teams can track subscription performance, run A/B tests on pricing and paywalls, and connect real-time revenue data to tools like Braze, Amplitude, or Stripe without custom code.
