Why sending customers to Amazon (not just your site) is the game‑changer your Meta Ads strategy needs
Meta Ads can boost brand visibility, but without a direct Amazon link, you’re missing out on real conversions. High-intent consumers prefer the convenience and trust of purchasing on Amazon. By optimizing Meta Ads and leveraging Ampd’s integration, brands capture more sales, better data, and stronger ROAS.
Read on if you’re looking for:

The opportunity you're missing
Clicks ≠ Conversions
Focusing on clicks, impressions, and traffic to brand.com or via a Where-To-Buy (WTB) experience doesn’t guarantee purchases. Consumers want ease, and getting them from ad, to cart with minimal friction is key. Knowing which ads are delivering beyond engagement and delivering revenue outcomes becomes critical for savvy commerce marketers. When you work with just native algorithms or WTB interstitials, you lose this important signal.
Amazon = Trust + Speed
Shoppers are more likely to buy on Amazon thanks to familiar checkout flows, one-click ordering, and trusted delivery. Driven by privacy concerns and convenience-led shopping motivations, more than ⅔ of shoppers prefer buying from a trusted retailer rather than your brand site. (Based on data from a 2025 survey conducted by Retail Brew)
Core advantages of Meta Ads → Amazon
A. Higher conversion likelihood
Deep linking from Meta Ads directly to Amazon product pages or brand stores dramatically reduces bounce rates and accelerates purchase decisions, especially for high-intent shoppers who may want more product information, to read reviews, or save to a trusted cart for later.
B. Retain shopper attention
By avoiding brand.com detours, you reduce drop-off risks, especially when Amazon’s trusted storefront keeps shoppers focused on your product line versus your competition.
C. Real sales data for smarter marketing
Ampd enables granular tracking, filling the gap between Ad spend and actual revenue. Use real conversion data to refine ad creative, targeting, and budget allocation for maximum return.
D. Expand lifetime value
Post-sale, continue engaging customers for reviews, repeat purchases, and loyalty. Fuel audience development within Amazon and Meta capabilities for retargeting and ongoing nurture.
