Amazon Ads
High Amazon Ads
Amazon Ads (formerly Amazon Advertising) provides a JavaScript pixel and conversion tracking tag that measures user actions on advertiser websites and sends data back to Amazon's demand-side platform (DSP) and sponsored ads ecosystem. The Amazon ad tag enables conversion attribution, audience building, and retargeting across Amazon's owned properties and its extensive third-party publisher network. Amazon's advertising business has grown rapidly to become the third-largest digital advertising platform globally behind Google and Meta. The Amazon Ads pixel is increasingly found on e-commerce, retail, and consumer goods websites, and its integration with Amazon's vast consumer data ecosystem raises significant governance considerations for regulated organisations.
