Amazon Associates and AlgoRift
AlgoRift AlgoLinks use Amazon Attribution for brand partnerships on AlgoRift. Amazon Associates is a different program with its own tags and operating agreement. You may use both when allowed, but never mix tags on one URL or hide which program earns. Use AlgoLink for AlgoRift partnerships and Associates tags only where Associates policy applies.
Two programs, two link types
Amazon Associates AlgoRift creators often run both: Associates for general Amazon content and AlgoLink for brand partnerships on AlgoRift.
- Use AlgoLink for SKUs where you have an active AlgoRift partnership.
- Use Associates tags only where Associates operating agreement allows.
- Never combine conflicting parameters on one URL.
Disclosure for both
Disclose the commercial relationship for each program your audience sees.
- State AlgoRift brand partnership where you use AlgoLink.
- Follow Associates disclosure rules on Associates-tagged content.
- See /affiliate/disclosure-and-posting/ for placement tips.
Reporting confusion
Associates reports and AlgoRift Reports will not match line for line — different attribution paths.
- Use AlgoRift Reports for partnership GMV.
- Use Associates dashboard for Associates-tagged traffic only.
Policy updates
Amazon changes Associates rules independently. AlgoRift Hub does not replace Amazon’s operating agreement.
- Read Amazon Associates policy when Amazon emails updates.
- Ask AlgoRift Support only for AlgoLink and partnership issues.
