Amazon Associates

Learn to integrate Amazon Associates with AnyTrack for enhanced affiliate tracking. Optimize ad platforms with automatic data collection and conversion insights.

By integrating first-party data along with conversion data from your other AnyTrack integrations, the platform enhances the effectiveness of the ad targeting algorithms.

How does the Amazon Associates AnyTrack integration work:

Section titled “How does the Amazon Associates AnyTrack integration work:”
  1. Traffic: When visitors land on your website, AnyTrack collects traffic source data and First Party data.
  2. Engagements: When visitors click on your Amazon Associates affiliate links, AnyTrack does a few things:
    1. Collects granular data tied to the OutboundClick.
    2. Triggers Event Tracking API requests to your Tracking Tags and analytics.
  3. Attribution: AnyTrack processes the click data and reports it across the reporting sections of the AnyTrack Dashboard.
  4. Conversion API: AnyTrack sends the OutboundClick event to your connected Ad Platforms’ Conversion API, so you can optimize toward the visitors who click your Amazon links. Because Amazon does not send a postback, the purchase/commission itself is not tracked — the OutboundClick is the event AnyTrack collects and sends.

The Amazon Associates integration is fully pre-defined and ready to use with your Amazon Associates account.

The Amazon Associates integration is enabled automatically by the AnyTrack Tracking Tag — there is no separate “Install” button to click in the Integration Catalog and no account to connect. As soon as the Tracking Tag is live on your site, AnyTrack detects clicks on your Amazon Associates links and records them as OutboundClick events.

To set it up:

  1. Install the AnyTrack Tracking Tag in the <head> of your website.
  2. Add your Amazon Associates affiliate links to your pages as standard HTML links.
  3. Open an Amazon link on your live site and confirm AnyTrack records an OutboundClick event.

This section helps you confirm that AnyTrack records clicks on your Amazon Associates links as OutboundClick events.

  1. Open a live page on your site that contains an Amazon Associates link.
  2. Open the AnyTrack Pixel Helper and confirm the AnyTrack Tag is detected.
  3. Click the Amazon Associates link.
  4. Confirm the Pixel Helper shows an OutboundClick event for the Amazon link.
  5. In AnyTrack, open the Amazon integration or your property’s Events Log and confirm the same OutboundClick appears.

Example Amazon link markup:

<a href="https://www.amazon.com/POWER-MINING-OpenClaw-Mini-Preinstalled/dp/B0GQQK7S2T/?tag=atblog0a-20">

Do not add a manual subid, ascsubtag, or --CLICK-ID-- token to Amazon Associates URLs. Keep the Amazon URL in the format Amazon provides and use AnyTrack to verify the click event.
