What is the Amway™ opportunity?
Your chance to build your own business the way you want it – while you’re supported by the resources of a global, multibillion-dollar business.

How do I get involved?
By becoming an Independent Business Owner, or IBO. A current Amway IBO will be happy to sponsor you and get you started in the business. Sign the Guest Book and ask to be connected with an IBO.

How do I make money as an IBO?
As an IBO, you’ll earn income from:
  • Retail markup on product you sell to others.
  • Performance bonuses based on your productivity.
  • Leadership bonuses and other cash awards and business incentives based on your group’s performance.
You’ll also be rewarded if you choose to sponsor other IBOs – just like you were sponsored.
