The 0.5% comes from Amazon, it doesn't change the amount they charge you. Not all items on Amazon are eligible for Smile but many, maybe most, are. It seems like everything that Amazon sells or fulfills is eligible.
The 0.5% from AmazonSmile adds up.

My orders have generated $47.92 for my current charity of choice.
