The best AmaLinks Pro alternative for most publishers is ProductReview. It builds the same showcase boxes and comparison tables inside WordPress, then adds the three things AmaLinks Pro never shipped: earnings data on every placement, a daily link health scan, and star ratings with review schema. It also costs less at entry, $44 per year against $67, and keeps its 30-day refund window.
AmaLinks Pro is a well-liked plugin with loyal users, and this guide is a fit check, not a takedown. People leave it for specific reasons: the lifetime license is gone, there is no built-in tracking, and Amazon-only publishers eventually want data their showcase boxes cannot give them. Below are 7 tools that do the same job, each with current pricing, its refund window, and one honest limitation.

Why People Look for an AmaLinks Pro Alternative
AmaLinks Pro earns real praise for showcase design and personal support, so the reasons publishers shop around tend to be structural rather than complaints about quality. Four come up again and again.
- The lifetime license ended. AmaLinks Pro sold a one-time Platinum plan until January 2022, then moved every tier to annual billing. Buyers who wanted to pay once and own the tool now look elsewhere for that model.
- No built-in analytics. The plugin does not track clicks or revenue per placement. You learn what a showcase earns by cross-referencing Amazon reports with your own memory, or by wiring up Google Analytics yourself.
- No link monitoring. Dead links and out-of-stock products sit live until a reader or a revenue dip tells you, because nothing scans for them.
- Amazon-only, no ratings schema. The plugin is built around Amazon and offers no star-rating block for review schema, so publishers who want rich-result stars or multi-network links have to add other tools.
None of that makes AmaLinks Pro a bad plugin. It makes it a specialized one, and the tools below either match its showcase job more cheaply or add the operational layer it leaves out.
What AmaLinks Pro Costs Right Now
Know your baseline before you shop. AmaLinks Pro runs $67 per year for the Blogger plan (one site, Table Builder included), $67 per year for Basic (up to five sites, Table Builder not included), and $197 per year for Premium (up to 25 sites). The unlimited-site Platinum tier is annual now and its rate sits on the official pricing page. Every plan carries a 30-day refund, and there is no free version. The old one-time prices of $497 to $797 still floating around the web are no longer purchasable, so ignore them. Our full AmaLinks Pro pricing breakdown covers the plan traps in detail.
How We Picked These Alternatives
Full disclosure first: we build ProductReview, one of the tools below. To keep the deck unstacked, every pick passed the same four checks, and every entry names a real limitation next to its strengths.
- Same job. Every pick builds affiliate product displays: boxes, tables, showcases, buttons. Link cloakers with no display features and affiliate-recruitment platforms were cut, because they solve a different problem than AmaLinks Pro does.
- Current prices. Every figure comes from the vendor’s official pricing page, checked while this guide was written, with a note wherever a number could not be confirmed directly or bills in a currency other than dollars.
- Real user sentiment. Named reviews on G2, WordPress.org, and independent blogs carried more weight than any marketing page, ours included.
- Refund windows on record. A switch is a test, and the refund window is the length of that test, so each entry states one.
The 7 Best AmaLinks Pro Alternatives
1. ProductReview
Best for Amazon publishers who want AmaLinks Pro’s displays plus the earnings data behind them.
[EDITOR: insert Media Library image 2771 (productreview-comparison-table.png) here and keep the stored alt text]
ProductReview is the affiliate product manager for WordPress, and it covers everything AmaLinks Pro builds: product boxes, comparison tables, a pros and cons block, top pick boxes, coupon boxes, and CTA buttons. It then adds a star-rating block with review schema, which AmaLinks Pro has no equivalent for, so your reviews get a shot at rating stars in search results. The bigger difference shows up after publish. Prices and stock refresh on their own through Amazon’s PA-API 5, a daily link scan flags broken or out-of-stock products before they cost you clicks, and first-party analytics attribute clicks and revenue to individual displays, so you can see which box earns and which one does not.
New Amazon associates get in before their API keys arrive, because ProductReview pulls product images and builds working boxes with no keys at all. The free Product Preview tool shows that no-key output before you install anything, and it is one of 9 free tools on the site next to a comparison table generator you can use without an account.
Honest limit: it is WordPress-only, and there is no free tier yet. The 30-day refund window is the counterweight, long enough to rebuild your key placements and watch a full month of real numbers before any money is final.
Price: $44, $89, $179, or $359 per year for 1, 5, 20, or unlimited sites, with refunds for 30 days.

2. AAWP
Best for Amazon-only sites that want the category incumbent with a lifetime option.
[EDITOR: screenshot of an AAWP product box or bestseller list from getaawp.com; File: aawp-product-box.png]
AAWP has been the default Amazon affiliate plugin for years, and it does one thing AmaLinks Pro does not: bestseller and new-release lists that fill and refresh themselves from an Amazon category. Product boxes, comparison tables, and built-in geotargeting round it out, and unlike AmaLinks Pro, AAWP still sells a lifetime license for publishers who prefer to pay once.
Honest limit: it reports no click or earnings data of its own, so you keep the same analytics blind spot you have with AmaLinks Pro, and its default box styling looks dated next to newer tools.
Price: €79, €129, €199, or €299 per year (about $91, $148, $229, or $344) for 1, 3, 5, or 10 sites, with lifetime licenses from €299 to €899 (about $344 to $1,035) and refunds for 30 days. The dollar figures beside euro prices are estimates at the current exchange rate, not billed amounts. Our AAWP pricing breakdown walks through every tier.
3. Lasso
Best for publishers who monetize several networks and want one dashboard for every link.
[EDITOR: screenshot of the Lasso link dashboard or a product display from getlasso.co; File: lasso-displays-dashboard.png]
Lasso is the pick for anyone whose income spans more than Amazon. It manages links from any network, turns them into product displays and tables, and its Opportunities engine scans your posts for product mentions you never monetized. That multi-network reach is exactly the flexibility G2 reviewers say AmaLinks Pro lacks. A free plan covers one site with basic displays, so you can try it without a card.
Honest limit: paid plans are not refundable, so the free plan and trial are your only testing window, and per-property pricing climbs fast for portfolio owners.
Price: free for 1 property with limits, then $19, $29, or $59 per month for 1, 3, or 5 properties, or $190, $289, or $549 per year on annual billing.
4. AzonPress
Best for budget-first Amazon sites, especially multi-site portfolios.
[EDITOR: screenshot of an AzonPress comparison table from azonpress.com; File: azonpress-comparison-table.png]
AzonPress, built by WPManageNinja, is the price leader among paid options. Its advertised rate of $2.27, $4.60, or $9.27 per month billed annually works out to about $27, $55, and $111 per year for 1, 20, or unlimited domains. Read that middle tier again: 20 domains for less than most competitors charge for one. Tables are the focus, and the interface stays simple enough to hand to a writer on day one. It also still offers lifetime licenses, another route AmaLinks Pro closed.
Honest limit: it requires your Amazon PA-API keys from the start, so brand-new associates without qualifying sales cannot use it yet, and support is email-only.
Price: about $27, $55, or $111 per year for 1, 20, or unlimited domains, lifetime at $199, $319, or $479, with refunds for 14 days. Our AzonPress pricing guide explains the monthly-versus-yearly billing quirk.
5. Content Egg
Best for price comparison across many stores on one page.
[EDITOR: screenshot of a Content Egg multi-store price comparison block; File: content-egg-price-comparison.png]
Content Egg does the one job nothing else on this list attempts: it pulls live offers from dozens of affiliate networks and shows the same product across stores with price updates, coupons, and deal blocks. For “where is this cheapest” content in electronics or home niches, that aggregation is the whole product, and AmaLinks Pro’s single-store showcases cannot match it.
Honest limit: reviewers describe a real learning curve, the free version on WordPress.org holds a lukewarm rating with the Amazon module reserved for paid tiers, and the refund policy is conditional: 14 days, only for malfunctions support cannot fix, with renewals non-refundable.
Price: $59, $99, or $179 per year for 1, 5, or 25 sites, with lifetime licenses at $149, $249, or $449.
6. Affiliatable
Best for publishers who need tables on sites that are not WordPress.
[EDITOR: screenshot of the Affiliatable table builder dashboard; File: affiliatable-table-builder.png]
Affiliatable is the only cloud tool here. You build comparison tables and boxes in its web app and embed them on WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, or Wix, which makes it the natural pick if your portfolio spans platforms a plugin cannot reach. A real free plan covers 30 tables and boxes, so testing costs nothing.
Honest limit: like AmaLinks Pro, it has no built-in click or revenue tracking, your elements render from its cloud rather than your database, and the refund window is a short 7 days. Our Affiliatable pricing guide has the full plan math.
Price: free for 30 elements, then $79, $149, or $199 per year for 1, 5, or 10 sites, with lifetime licenses at $199, $499, or $899.
7. Auto Amazon Links
Best for a zero-budget start.
[EDITOR: screenshot of an Auto Amazon Links product unit from the WordPress.org listing; File: auto-amazon-links-unit.png]
Auto Amazon Links is the free plugin worth naming. It builds Amazon product units automatically from categories or search terms and runs in a reduced mode even before Amazon grants PA-API access. As a way to get product displays on a brand-new site the day you start, it works.
Honest limit: there are no polished showcase boxes or comparison tables, styling is basic, and support is a volunteer forum. It is a starting point, not a home for a site built on review content.
Price: free.

What Leaving AmaLinks Pro Actually Costs
A switch is never free, and knowing the costs upfront keeps the move from stalling halfway. Budget for three.
Rebuild time. No plugin imports AmaLinks Pro shortcodes. ProductReview can import AAWP shortcodes directly, but an AmaLinks Pro migration means rebuilding each showcase and table by pasting the ASIN again. Count your live placements before you set a switch date: at 10 to 15 minutes per display, 40 of them is a weekend project, not an afternoon.
Dropped tags. Every rebuilt link is a fresh chance to paste a URL without your affiliate tag. After the move, run your money pages through the free Link and Tag Checker, which flags Amazon links with a missing or malformed tag before they leak commissions silently.
Order of operations. Test the new tool while AmaLinks Pro is still installed, not after. Treat each refund window as your test window: 30 days at ProductReview and AAWP, 14 at AzonPress and Content Egg, 7 at Affiliatable, none at Lasso, where the free plan is the test. Keep AmaLinks Pro active until the replacement has proven itself on your highest-traffic pages, since your old showcases keep rendering only while the plugin stays installed.
How to Pick the Right Alternative
Four questions settle this faster than any feature checklist.
- Do you need to know what each placement earns? If seeing per-display revenue would change what you write next, ProductReview is the clearest upgrade, since it is the analytics gap that sends most people looking.
- Is Amazon your only program? Amazon-first sites fit ProductReview, AAWP, or AzonPress. If a real share of your income comes from other networks, shortlist Lasso and Content Egg first.
- Do you publish outside WordPress? If any of your traffic lands on Webflow, Shopify, or Wix, Affiliatable is the only pick here that follows you there.
- Did the lifetime license matter to you? If paying once was the appeal of AmaLinks Pro’s old Platinum plan, AAWP, AzonPress, and Content Egg all still sell lifetime tiers.
Weighing the category incumbent from the other direction? Our roundup of the best AAWP alternatives covers several of the same tools against a different baseline.
Most WordPress publishers leaving AmaLinks Pro land on ProductReview, because it keeps the showcase and table job they already rely on and answers the question AmaLinks Pro leaves open: which of these displays actually makes the money.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does AmaLinks Pro still have a lifetime license?
No. The company discontinued lifetime pricing and moved every tier, including the unlimited Platinum plan, to annual billing. The one-time prices between $497 and $797 still quoted around the web are no longer purchasable. AAWP, AzonPress, and Content Egg are the alternatives here that still sell a pay-once tier.
What is the best free AmaLinks Pro alternative?
Auto Amazon Links is the only fully free plugin that builds Amazon product displays, and Lasso’s free plan covers one site with basic displays. Affiliatable’s free plan covers 30 tables and boxes if you want a builder rather than automatic units. Each works as a starting point, though none matches a paid plugin on design control or data.
Which AmaLinks Pro alternative includes click and revenue tracking?
ProductReview and Lasso are the two here with built-in performance tracking. ProductReview attributes clicks and revenue to individual displays inside WordPress, which is the exact gap AmaLinks Pro leaves open, since it ships no analytics of its own.
Can I move my AmaLinks Pro displays to another plugin automatically?
No tool imports AmaLinks Pro shortcodes directly, so a switch means rebuilding each display by pasting its ASIN into the new plugin. ProductReview does import AAWP shortcodes, so if you also run AAWP, that part of a migration is automatic. Rebuild your highest-traffic pages first and keep AmaLinks Pro installed until every page is moved.
Do these alternatives require Amazon PA-API keys?
Some do. AzonPress needs keys from the start, which means qualifying sales on your Associates account first. ProductReview, Auto Amazon Links, and AmaLinks Pro itself can build working displays before Amazon grants API access, so match the tool to where your account stands today.
Which alternative has the longest refund window?
ProductReview and AAWP both honor refunds for 30 days, matching AmaLinks Pro’s own window and giving you the most time to test on real traffic. AzonPress allows 14 days, Content Egg allows 14 days for malfunctions only, Affiliatable allows 7, and Lasso’s paid plans are not refundable.
