That's strange since Amazon's Associate Agreement specifically prohibits sites from offering rewards for using their Amazon link. To wit:
In addition, you may not: (a) directly or indirectly offer any person or entity any consideration or incentive (including, without limitation, payment of money (including any rebate), or granting of any discount or other benefit) for using Special Links on your site to access the Amazon.com Site (e.g., by implementing any "rewards" program for persons or entities who use Special Links on your site to access the Amazon.com Site)
I suspect that those "participating" sites (not counting RewardsDB itself, since it offers no reward) are all in violation of their Associates agreement.
