There are other book vendors who've reached out to offer their affiliate programs, but I'm not sure any of them are worth it.
From the short time I was on Amazon, the lion's share of my affiliate revenue came from items other than books that were purchased using cookies that my app had set.
Without those non-book items, I would've made very, very little money (e.g., ~$5 instead of ~$300).
Books don't cost very much, but Persian rugs do! And there aren't many other booksellers out there who also sell Persian rugs...

Charge based on impressions, click-throughs, or by some other arrangement. For users, it keeps the tool free and ideally—if the sponsored placements are good—introduces them to cool new books.
