The Amazon Giveaway feature is designed to help bloggers, artists and others generate interest in their work. The new feature can be used by anyone with an Amazon account and encompasses multiple physical items. To help promote the new feature, several brands have teamed up with the online retailer to do giveaways.

There are limits to how many items and what their value is that can be part of a single giveaway. Amazon Giveaway only allows for up to 50 prizes to be in a giveaway. The total value of these items can’t go over $5,000.

When creating an Amazon Giveaway, users have the ability to fine tune how it works. This allows them to decide if only the first few user will win a prize or if more should. Once the creation process is complete, the host of the giveaway is given a link that they can share at anytime with their followers.
