Shop Amazon and give to the SSPX!

The United States District Office is running 2 Amazon programs that allow you to give to the Society of St. Pius X while shopping online...and without spending an extra penny!

Amazon program

The standard Amazon program gives the SSPX an average of 7.5% of your purchase total.

Here's how to sign-up:

  1. Bookmark this Amazon page.
  2. From then on, start shopping on Amazon by clicking the bookmarked link.
 

AmazonSmile program

The AmazonSmile program gives 0.5% of all purchases to the SSPX by choosing it as your charity of choice.

Here's how to add the SSPX as your favorite charity:

  1. Go to smile.amazon.com (if you already have an account, Amazon will link both programs for you).
  2. Select a charity.
  3. Copy and paste in the search bar (Platte City, MO location): Society of Saint Pius X South-West District Inc. [Note: Please check with your chapel to verify it is signed up for this program.  Otherwise, it will not receive any funds.]
  4. Once you've selected Society of Saint Pius X South-West District Inc., you'll see a note at the top of the page stating that you're now supporting the SSPX.
  5. Shop as usual!

FAQs about the SSPX's Amazon programs

Q: Will I pay more for my items if I purchase them through this link?

A: No, you will not spend a cent more for your Amazon items. Amazon pays advertising fees to generate traffic to its site. Typically, those fees go to search giants such as Google or Bing—let that fee go to the SSPX instead!

Q: Do I have to shop Amazon from the same computer every time in order for the SSPX to obtain these donations?

A: Once you have signed up for the SSPX's Amazon programs, you can use any computer to shop on while still providing the donations. This will automatically happen as your preferences are connected to your Amazon account settings.

Q: Is this really worth the effort? How much does the SSPX stand to earn?

A: If 2,000 people were to buy an average of $500 per year on Amazon, the SSPX's USA District would receive $75,000.

Q: Does this affect how I log into my Amazon account? Can I still use my Amazon Prime membership?

A: Making your Amazon.com purchases through the SSPX link will not affect your use of any type of account you have with Amazon. You can shop as you normally would.

Q: What if I purchase items on Amazon.com from a third-party vendor, does the SSPX still receive a commission?

A: Yes, as long as you go to Amazon by way of this link, the SSPX will receive a commission, even on third-party sales.

Q: What kind of products qualify?

A: The commission applies to all Amazon.com purchases: books and music, electronics and computers, clothing and shoes, office and school supplies, groceries and health items, sporting and outdoors products, automotive and industrial goods—and much more.

Q: Will my personal information be compromised if I make purchases this way?

A: No. The SSPX does not see the names of the customers using this program, their credit card numbers, or any of their other personal information.
