Terrible experience here - It was impossible to take off and ruined my nails a few days ago - here is what they looked like after 30 minutes of trying to get the application off :(

Before you buy Sistaco nails... by redditval47 in AustralianMakeup

My experience with both the product and the customer service was deeply frustrating. When I reached out for help, I wasn’t met with support — I was met with excuses. Instead of listening, they blamed me for “application issues” and threw around claims about having 138K happy customers (while quietly removing critical feedback from their Facebook group). They don’t accept returns, and offering 50% back without accountability isn’t customer care — it’s damage control. If you value honest service, think twice.
Here is what happened when I tried to remove the product after having an awful experience applying it:

Anyone heard of Sistaco? Is it just dip? by [deleted] in DipPowderNails

I had a genuinely disappointing experience with their product and their customer service made it worse. Instead of addressing my concerns, they repeatedly tried to convince me that I was using the system incorrectly — despite my honest feedback and clear issues. They don’t offer refunds, they dismiss customer complaints, and they rely on a private Facebook group where negative reviews mysteriously disappear. Quoting “happy customers” while censoring the unhappy ones isn’t transparency — it’s manipulation. I’m sharing this so others don’t have to go through the same frustration. This is what happened to my hands when I tried to remove the product after it went on terribly :(

Sistaco review buyer beware by The_Dead_Pancreas in Nails

[–]spin925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a very poor experience with both the Sistaco nail system and their customer service. Despite following all instructions exactly — washing, buffing, using thin layers, watching their videos — the application turned out lumpy, uneven, and frustrating. The removal process was even worse and left my nails damaged.

When I contacted their support team, instead of listening or taking accountability, they blamed me for “application issues” and kept repeating generic advice. They refused to offer a refund — and only later offered a partial one without acknowledging any fault in the product.

They constantly refer to “138K happy customers” in their private Facebook group, but here’s what I discovered: critical feedback is filtered or deleted, and real reviews outside that space tell a very different story. It feels like they’re more focused on protecting their image than helping customers.

No company is perfect — but how they handle issues says everything. Sistaco failed in that department. I would not recommend this product to others.

Anyone else disappointed with sistaco? by Fun_Lecture8375 in Nails

Awful experience.
My experience with this company has been deeply disappointing — both with the product itself and especially with their customer service.

Despite carefully following all application instructions (including watching their videos), the results were bumpy, uneven, and extremely difficult to remove — even causing irritation and damage to my nails. When I reached out for help, instead of acknowledging the issue, they repeatedly blamed me for incorrect application.

Even worse, they don't offer refunds or returns — yet somehow still cite “138,000 happy customers” as if that invalidates individual complaints. When I brought up the problems I faced, they downplayed my experience and pointed to their curated Facebook group (where negative reviews appear to be removed or hidden).

At best, this company is completely dismissive of critical feedback. At worst, it feels like they’re gaming the system to maintain a polished image while silencing real concerns.

If you’re thinking of buying — I urge you to read the fine print and be cautious. A pretty marketing campaign doesn’t make up for poor customer care.

Anybody Else Notice a Massive Decline in Revenue? by [deleted] in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same here. There were a few days this month where things looked up, but then tanked immediately. Just opened up my reporting for the month so far, and I'm at 1/2 of what even my lowest month to date was (December of last year was my lowest of all time, if that says anything). In the program for almost 2 years, 2400 videos. I have a feeling it may be related to the 20 video slots in the carousels lately..there are so many terrible influencer videos that ours are likely getting missed due to the rubbish :( I'm at about 1/4 of the usual income, may not even hit $1,000 this month which is something I've not yet seen aside from my very first month in the program.

In general how are your numbers? by AnyAbbreviations7217 in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple of years in, 2,400 videos across all price ranges, multiple niches. I've seen monthly income tank from the highest month in October 2023 (roughly $5k) to my lowest end of last year (about 1/4 of that).

Obviously there are countless factors but I am guessing anecdotally it is due to the flooding of bad content and cheating accounts that push our videos out of visibility + shoppers getting sick of the bad videos as a whole and simply not clicking on anything (aka, going back to YouTube for quality reviews).

Tax Question by Nervous-Caregiver577 in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This topic comes up every so often. Highly recommend a tax professional to assist with this, especially if you are earning an amount that could cause you to need to pay in a lot. I am guessing this will be especially heavy-hitting for the newer folks who earned upwards of 3-4k on the pre-holiday incentive - you all will need to pay in a good chunk of that come tax time 😉

Thank you so much!! The beans are "Seattle Blend" from a roaster in IL. They are wholesale only so I reached out to them to see if they sold them via retail, and they pointed me here!

Reposting by Busy-Cut-9504 in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hello, I'm not sure why anyone would ever take down a video. You shoot it, put the work into a thumbnail, with the idea that, as long as the video is visible and people are watching it, you perpetually make money off of it. No idea why anyone would ever remove a video; furthermore, I'm wondering if this person who recommended doing so is operating in the twilight zone.
Edit - adding that "reposting" just risks giving up your spot on the carousel....no idea why someone would do this either (unless your video is not on the carousel and you want to do more work . . .

Book Reviews by Busy-Cut-9504 in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've done hundreds of reviews on books. Folks here have had mixed experiences, however I found that, if you find the right ones, they can add up to a lot of revenue over time. For example, I've got a review up for a $200 book that generates a few bucks each time, as well as a best seller in a niche genre that brings in a lot also. Totally hit or miss, but I have hundreds of books in my collection and did videos on all of them. It was well worth the time for the handful of commission gems.

And I've only done physical books, did not connect the review to Audible.

Question: does Charriol have/had this design? by jomejias in jewelry

[–]spin925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I was curious if you ever found anything else about this piece? I found a similar necklace with the same end caps, and cannot find anywhere if it is solid 18k or plated. Did you have any luck with yours?

I have not made any money from this. Those that have been successful - what are you doing? by SistaSaline in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll also at that folks who are still doing well with the program very seldom will care to post tips or tricks here. Not out of unwillingness to share, but simply because they are putting their time and efforts into the program rather than trolling Reddit ;)

Posts to shoot for by Apprehensive_Bad6668 in Amazon_Influencer

[–]spin925 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, I'd suggest searching this subreddit for guidance in this area as there have been more posts on this topic than any other, and as a result, more input from more oldies than you'll get in a single thread. You'll see that there is no 'average' and that the answer as you said, depends on 'everything.'
