Affiliate Amazon Shortcode is a lightweight yet powerful WordPress plugin that allows you to display Amazon products directly in your posts, pages, or widgets using both the legacy Amazon Product Advertising API v5 and the new Creators API. With this plugin, you can easily integrate Amazon affiliate links, generate rich snippets, and enhance your affiliate marketing strategy without writing any code.
⚠️ IMPORTANT: Amazon Creators API Migration
Amazon requires all affiliates to migrate from PA-API 5.0 to the new Creators API by January 30, 2026. This plugin now supports both APIs for a smooth transition:
- Creators API (New – Required from Jan 30, 2026): New authentication system, improved security with OAuth 2.0
- PA-API 5.0 (Legacy): Will be deprecated after January 31, 2026
Ideal for bloggers, affiliate marketers, and e-commerce websites, with Affiliate Amazon Shortcode, you can effectively monetize your website and increase your earnings through the Amazon Affiliate Program.
Try the plugin now and start earning with Amazon.
