AffiliateX Zero API

What is AffiliateX Zero API Integration? #

The AffiliateX’s Zero API Integration allows Amazon affiliates who don’t have access to Amazon’s Product Advertising API yet, to directly retrieve product details (title, descriptions, pricing, images, and tracking link) from Amazon, and add to their websites without the need for the Amazon API credentials and requirements such as:

  • Amazon API Access Key
  • Secret Access Key
  • Meeting Amazon’s 3-sale requirement in 180 days.

This feature is ideal for new affiliate marketers who haven’t yet qualified for Amazon’s API access, as well as experienced marketers seeking to avoid API limitations and errors.

Who Should Use Zero API Integration #

New Amazon Associates #

If you’re just starting as an Amazon affiliate marketer and you haven’t yet met Amazon’s 3 sales requirements for PA API access, this feature is perfect for you.

Users Facing “TooManyRequest” Errors #

For those who have previously encountered the frustrating “TooManyRequest” error or lost API access due to insufficient sales, our Zero API Integration is a reliable alternative.

Key Features of the AffiliateX Zero API Integration #

Duration #

This feature is available for the first 6 months from the date of your purchase or activation. This period is set to allow affiliates to make 3 qualified sales to have access to use the Amazon PA API.

Usage Limit #

Zero API users have a limit of 3000 monthly requests per license. The monthly request limit resets to 3000 requests on the 1st of each month.

Extensive Product Suggestion #

Once you input the product’s keyword, you have an extensive catalogue of products to choose from without the need for the Amazon PA API.
