Amazon Associates Integration Overview

AnyTrack.io enables you to accurately assess the performance of advertising campaigns that generate the most clicks on your Amazon affiliate links. By integrating first-party data along with conversion data from your other AnyTrack integrations, the platform enhances the effectiveness of the ad targeting algorithms.

Before you begin

• You have an AnyTrack account with a paid subscription
• You have an active Amazon Associates affiliate account
• The AnyTrack <code>Tracking Tag</code> is installed on your website

🚧

Conversion

Since Amazon does not accept tracking parameters nor does it offer a postback notification system, we are unable to track conversions directly. We can only track clicks on the links.

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 conversion data and reports it across various reporting sections of the AnyTrack Dashboard.
4. Conversion API: AnyTrack then sends your conversions to your Ad Platforms’ Conversion API so you can feed your ad platform’s Machine Learning, AI and automatic optimization according to 100% of your conversion data.

Difference

In affiliate marketing jargon, a subid is used to pass a unique click_id every time a visitor clicks on an offer link.

The Amazon Tracking ID can carry a predefined value into an Amazon product link. These Tracking IDs can be used to aggregate reports and commissions - for example: tid=socialmedia

Note: AnyTrack will never AutoTag your Amazon Associate links.
