Set up Amazon Ads

With Adjust's Amazon Ads integration, you can measure the impact of campaigns you run on Amazon Ads that drive installs on your Android, Fire TV, and Fire tablet apps.

Here, you can find information about how to connect Adjust to Amazon Ads in the Adjust dashboard.

Important:

Adjust's integration with Amazon Ads is the latest SAN integration with Amazon. The legacy integration with Amazon Fire is still functional, but will be deprecated in the coming months.

Before you begin

Requirement

  • An Amazon advertiser ID
    • This is the ID of your advertiser account on Amazon DSP.
  • Amazon Standard Identification Number (ASIN) for Fire OS apps or App Bundle ID for Android apps

What you need to know

Amazon is a self-attributing network. This means that Adjust sends Amazon data for all of your app's installs and Amazon self-attributes using their own engagement data. Adjust then checks this data to confirm the source of the last engagement.

Initial setup

To set up Amazon Ads for your app, follow these steps in Adjust.

  1. Under Campaign Lab, select Partners.
  2. Select New partner.
  3. In the Partner selection screen, choose Amazon Ads, and select Next.
  4. In the App selection screen, choose your app, and select Next.

Then, set your data sharing options, review your setup, and enable Amazon Ads for your app.

Data sharing

Share data with Amazon Ads to optimize your campaigns. In the Data sharing screen, follow these steps.

Enable data sharing for Amazon Ads

  1. In the Amazon Advertiser ID field, enter your advertiser ID for that platform. This enables data sharing with Amazon. For help finding your advertiser ID, speak with your Amazon representative.
  2. Enter your ASIN (Fire OS)/App Bundle ID (Android) field.

Once you enable data sharing, Adjust sends install and reattribution data from all attribution sources, by default. This includes data attributed to Amazon Ads, data attributed to other networks, and organic data. Additionally, you can choose to share the following data with Amazon Ads.

  • Sessions
  • Events

Map events

For each Adjust in-app event you will see a partner event field. Use the dropdown menu to select a predefined Amazon event that maps to your Adjust event. You can't send custom events.
