Amazon sellers – if you’re still relying solely on traditional ads or chasing influencer brand deals on Instagram, you’re missing out. Amazon has a tool right inside the ads console that could change the game for your marketing strategy: Creator Connections. It’s simple to use and built for performance-based influencer marketing – without some of the typical headaches.

What is Amazon's Creator Connections Hub?

Creator Connections is a feature available within Seller Central and the Amazon Ads console. It lets brands connect directly with Amazon-affiliated influencers. Rather than hunting down influencers across social media, brands can now:

  • Launch influencer campaigns directly in the ads console
  • Let creators choose which campaigns to accept based on their audience
  • Offer commissions or one-time payments
  • Track clicks and sales from one dashboard

Benefits of Amazon's Creator Connections Hub:

The benefits of using the Creator Connections hub include:

  • Direct access to Amazon-verified creators
  • Pay only for performance (commission-based)
  • Built-in campaign tools
  • Increased visibility and reach

Creating a Creator Connection Campaign:

To create a Creator Connection campaign, navigate to the ads console, then head to Brand Content > Creator Connections. From here, click “Create Request” next to the brand name.
