FMTC Featured Merchant: Bookshop.org

At Bookshop.org, we believe local bookstores are essential community hubs that foster culture, curiosity, and a love of reading, and we’re committed to helping them thrive. Every purchase on our site financially supports independent bookstores. Our platform gives independent bookstores tools to compete online and financial support to help them maintain their presence in local communities.

Why Bookshop.org?

Bookshop.org began as an idea to help support bookstores and their communities as more and more people are buying their books online. We saw an opportunity to create an alternative to Amazon for socially conscious online shoppers. Amazon sells over 60% of all books in the U.S. and is growing. That shift threatens the future of bookstores and will hurt readers, authors, and publishers who rely on a diverse, healthy ecosystem for books. We had a better idea: giving readers the convenience of online shopping while supporting independent bookstores at the same time.

Bookshop.org affiliates can curate their favorite books on their own profile page and earn revenue — all while supporting local bookstores. It’s a win-win!
