Amazon OneLink: Stop Losing Commissions on International Traffic

If your affiliate links all point to Amazon.com, every click from London, Toronto, or Berlin lands on a store the visitor probably won't buy from — and even if they do, without a local associate tag you earn nothing. For English-language sites, that's often 20–40% of clicks earning $0.

What OneLink does

OneLink is Amazon's official cross-border redirection: a visitor clicking your Amazon.com link is sent to the same product on their local marketplace (amazon.co.uk, .ca, .de, and so on), credited to your associate account for that country.

Setting it up

1. Create Associate accounts for the marketplaces that matter to your audience (UK, Canada, and Germany cover most English-site traffic).
2. In Amazon Associates, open Tools → OneLink and link the accounts.
3. Amazon then handles redirection for your links automatically.

OneLink and comparison tables

Tables built with Table Labs use standard Amazon product links, so OneLink redirection applies to every button in your tables with no extra work. Configure your locales once in your profile, and international readers see their local store while you keep the commission.

Is it worth the setup?

Check your analytics for non-US traffic share. Above ~15%, OneLink typically pays for the hour of setup within the first month.
