We buy your phone-filmed product reviews. $10–$20+ each, up front.
Film an honest review on your phone. If we accept it, we buy it outright and pay you fast — a set price per video, no waiting on views. Then we publish it on Amazon and YouTube.
Free to apply. No following required — just real opinions and a phone.
Where your videos get published
Every video carries a clear disclosure, per FTC guidelines.
Who you're selling to
A real storefront, run by Ethan Stone.
No mystery middleman. In Hand Reviews is run by Ethan Stone, a Gold-tier Amazon Influencer. Every video we buy goes live on our Amazon storefront and YouTube — and you can read the exact agreement you'd sign before you ever apply.

Real income for people who can explain a product.

Simple, exclusive deal

For brands
Send a product. Get an honest review.
Send us a free product and our creators may review it. We don't take payment from brands and we don't sell coverage — the review is independent, and we publish the honest verdict, even when it's critical.
- Free product submissions — never paid placements
- Independent, honest reviews — the good and the bad
- Published on Amazon & YouTube
We accept free products, never payment. Coverage and a positive verdict are never guaranteed.
Quick answers
A few things upfront.
How much exactly will I earn per video?
A guaranteed base plus a performance bonus — typically $10–$20+ per accepted video, paid up front. The bonus is higher for in-demand products with few existing reviews; your dashboard estimates it before you film.
How soon am I paid, and how?
Once we accept a video, payment goes out promptly to your preferred method (e.g., PayPal). No waiting on views or sales.
Is this legit? How do you keep it honest?
Yes. Reviews are always honest — the good and the bad. Brands can send free products but never pay us and never influence the verdict; we publish negative reviews too. We never pay creators for positive opinions, and disclosures are always made. You can read the exact Creator Agreement before you apply.
Who owns the video?
Once we buy it, the video is ours exclusively — we publish it on Amazon, YouTube, and elsewhere. You’re paid up front for it.
Do I need a big following?
No. Amazon doesn’t require a huge audience, and neither do we. Clear product judgment and watchable phone video matter far more than follower count.
What do I need to film?
A smartphone is enough. Film horizontal (landscape) in 1080p, 1–2 minutes, showing the product in hand and covering its features. No editing required — just good light and an honest take.
Can I post the video on my own channel too?
When we buy a video it becomes ours exclusively, so it shouldn’t be posted elsewhere. Want something for your own channel? Film a separate take — happy to talk it through.
Do I have to buy the products?
Often you’ll review things you already own. For some briefs a brand sends a free product to review. You’re never required to buy anything to take part.
What about taxes?
You’re an independent contractor and responsible for your own taxes. U.S. creators may be asked for a W-9 and could receive a 1099 if payments cross the reporting threshold.
Your reviews are worth real money.
