When Should You Use Multiple Amazon Tracking IDs?

Most users won't need to use multiple Amazon tracking IDs, especially if you're using Lasso for click tracking.

But, some users prefer to use multiple Amazon tracking IDs with Lasso to segment their clicks and earnings by specific posts or campaigns.


How to Set up Multiple Amazon Tracking IDs

  1. In Lasso, go to Settings > Amazon.

  2. Under Tracking ID for This Site, add the Amazon tracking ID you use most often. Most users add their Amazon Store ID here.

  3. Under Auto-Monetize Amazon Links, toggle Allow Multiple Tracking IDs to the "on" position.

  4. Under Tracking ID Whitelist, add any Amazon IDs you'd like to use. By default, Lasso will monetize your Amazon links with the ID found under Tracking ID for This Site. When Lasso detects a whitelisted ID, it'll retain the ID and won't change it. (During your Auto-Amazon link scans, Lasso will also add any tracking IDs it finds to the whitelist, so you can review them later.)

  5. Hit the Save Changes button in the bottom right corner.


Using Multiple Tracking IDs

If you add links from SiteStripe that contain your other tracking IDs, you can paste them into Lasso. That tracking ID will be used everywhere you promote that product.

You can also change the tracking ID in the Primary Destination URL box in the Link Details page.

To do this, find the initial tracking ID after ?tag= in the Primary Destination URL box. Then, highlight and remove that ID and paste the new ID in its place:

Note: You can return to Lasso's Amazon Settings page to add or remove tracking IDs from your whitelist anytime. If you add a new ID, Lasso won't override it. If you remove an ID, Lasso will automatically replace it with the ID listed under Tracking ID for This Site.


How Does the "Tracking ID for This Site" Work with the Whitelisted IDs?

  • "Tracking ID for This Site" Only: Lasso sets all the tracking tags on your Amazon affiliate links to the primary tracking ID.

  • "Tracking ID for This Site" Plus Whitelisted IDs: Lasso sets the tags of Amazon affiliate links to the primary tracking ID except for those whose tracking ID is whitelisted already.

  • No "Tracking ID for This Site" or Whitelisted IDs: Whichever tag is included in the link when it's added to Lasso will remain. Lasso won't override them, but it won't automatically monetize links that exclude tracking IDs either.
