Creators API + Your Keys

On 15 May 2026 Amazon retired the old Product Advertising API that most affiliate plugins are built on. If your plugin still runs on PA-API 5.0, its prices and product data are living on borrowed time.

Why it matters

Built for the Amazon Creators API era. On your own keys.

ProductReview is built natively on the Amazon Creators API, the successor to the retired PA-API 5.0, so your prices, images and product data come straight from Amazon’s current official source. This is the reason to switch now rather than later.

You connect with your own credentials, never a pooled or shared key. That means your data, your rate limits and your compliance stand on their own, instead of sharing a bucket with hundreds of other sites that can throttle everyone.

It supports both Cognito and Login-with-Amazon authentication modes, caches bearer tokens for speed, covers 19 Amazon marketplaces, and includes a live connection test so you know your keys work before you publish.

How it works

Connect your Amazon account.

1

Add your credentials

Enter your Creators API credential ID and secret and pick your credential version and region.

2

Set your store & tag

Choose your marketplace and enter your Associate tracking ID.

3

Verify

Run the live connection test, then start pulling fresh product data.

Tips & insights

  • Using your own keys means your rate limits are yours alone, so a busy neighbour on a shared key can never throttle your site.
  • Pick the credential version that matches how you registered with Amazon (Cognito or Login with Amazon) and your region.
  • Run the connection test after any credential change so a typo never silently empties your boxes.

Frequently asked questions

What happened to the old Amazon PA-API?
Amazon retired the Product Advertising API 5.0 on 15 May 2026. Plugins still built on it are relying on a deprecated system. ProductReview is built on the newer Creators API instead.
Do you use my own Amazon keys or a shared pool?
Your own keys, always. There is no pooled or shared-key mode, so your data and rate limits are independent and your account stays compliant.
Why does using my own keys matter?
Shared keys mean shared rate limits and shared compliance risk. With your own credentials, another site’s traffic can never throttle yours, and your Associates account is cleanly yours.
Which authentication does it support?
Both Cognito and Login-with-Amazon client-credentials flows, with cached bearer tokens for fast repeated calls.
How many marketplaces are supported?
Nineteen Amazon marketplaces, so you can localise prices and links for readers around the world.
How do I know my connection works?
A live connection test verifies your credentials and reports back before you rely on the data in production.
Do I need the API for every feature?
Live prices, search and product data need it. Some tools, like the no-API product thumbnail, work without a key, but the API is what keeps your catalog fresh.
Is the Creators API hard to set up?
You paste your credentials, pick your region and tag, and run the test. The plugin handles the OAuth token exchange and caching for you.
