About
The dominant retail-native attribution solution for brands advertising on Amazon, leveraging Amazon's first-party purchase data to provide unmatched closed-loop measurement for Amazon sales.
Amazon Attribution is a free advertising measurement tool created by Amazon that enables brand-registered sellers to evaluate the performance of their external advertising efforts. It functions as a marketing analytics console giving marketers visibility into how non-Amazon channels contribute to activity on Amazon, covering display, search, social, video, and email marketing. The tool expands the available sales funnel data points beyond simple conversions, offering insight into how users engage with products on Amazon — including clicks, detail page views, and add-to-cart actions. A key capability is that marketers do not have to wait until a campaign has ended to view results, as performance data is available throughout the life of a campaign, enabling mid-flight optimizations. Amazon has also paired Attribution with a Brand Referral Bonus program, through which brands can earn an average credit of 10% on sales driven by external advertising, applied against their referral fees.
