What is AmazonSmile?
AmazonSmile is a simple and automatic way for you to support your favorite charitable organization every time you shop, at no cost to you. When you shop at smile.amazon.com, you’ll find the exact same low prices, vast selection and convenient shopping experience as Amazon.com, with the added bonus that Amazon will donate a portion of the purchase price to your favorite charitable organization. You can choose from nearly one million organizations to support.
How much of my purchase does Amazon donate?
The AmazonSmile Foundation will donate 0.5% of the purchase price from your eligible AmazonSmile purchases. No cost to you.

AmazonSmile Foundation relies on word of mouth and does not use paid advertisement. It's also why you may get prompted to install the Amazon Assistant for your browser. (See image below).
If you don't want to use the Assistant extension, you can bookmark the site instead - according to your region. But remember the Amazon app (iOS, Android) won't be running on Smile.
Update:
If logged into your Amazon account (in the browser), then Amazon Assistant will show this.
If you visit Amazon website, you'll be reminded to switch.
If you already support your own-picked charities, you are not being forced to use AmazonSmile.
Will you make the switch?
