You want to earn internationally through Canada + EU5 Countries (United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, France & Italy) marketplaces and/or any of the 7 marketplaces (Japan, Singapore, Netherlands, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Poland, Sweden & Australia) as well - Click here for more information.

• How do I start using OneLink?

We have simplified the process for you to earn across the Canada, United Kingdom, Spain, Germany, France and Italy Associates programs, by making it possible using a single store ID. However for the rest of the countries, you will need an Amazon Associates account in each country for which you want to monetize the traffic.

Getting started is easy and requires a one-time setup. Click here to get started with setup.

Integration and preferences

• What controls do I have over the redirection experience for my links?

We offer three controls to you for OneLink – “Exact match”, “Close match” and “Do not redirect”. Once you enable OneLink, we will automatically set your redirection preferences to “close match”. This means, when we find an exact or similar product or offering (e.g. Prime sign up) we will redirect international shoppers to that ASIN’s detail page on the local Amazon website, and if we can’t find an exact or similar match product or offering we will redirect the customer to the search experience on the local Amazon website using the product title as the search keyword. You can choose to update your redirection preference to “exact match” in which case we will only redirect international shoppers to an Amazon product detail page when the same product also exists locally, otherwise we will redirect to the search experience using the product title of a similar product. If we are unable to find a similar product or if you choose to update “Do not redirect”, we will not redirect clicks and rather take your visitor to the Amazon website that your original product linked to. Please note, all preferences are at a tracking ID level, so if you have multiple tracking IDs you will need to change these preferences for each one. We recommend you always leave the default option of “close match” to optimize conversions.

• How can I preview where my international visitors will be redirected?

The “Check Matching Products” section on the OneLink page allows you to check where your international visitors will be redirected, for a given US product link.

• Will visitors from countries neighboring international Amazon websites also be redirected?

Yes, your international visitors from countries neighboring the supported countries will be redirected to their nearest Amazon store. For example, visitors from Ireland , Greece, Georgia, and Iceland, etc., will be redirected to Amazon.co.uk.

• Does OneLink work for all Amazon text links?

Yes, as long as you have completed the one-time setup and use Amazon full links or Amazon short links on your site. Shortened links created by third-party link shorteners are currently not supported and will not be redirected.

• Does it work for readers on mobile devices?

Yes.

• If my store was closed in a country, can I reopen it for OneLink?

A store is not available for OneLink once it has been closed in a specific country, as closing a store is an irreversible action.
