Amazon marketplaces, currencies and affiliate regions

Amazon runs 22 storefronts. Each one has its own domain, its own currency, and its own Associates program with its own tracking ID. Here is the full list, and why the distinctions matter when you post a deal.

Twenty-two storefronts under one brand. Seven of them price in EUR, so the same listing can appear with a different number on amazon.de, amazon.fr, amazon.it, amazon.es, amazon.nl, and amazon.com.be — and the discount percentage will not always match.

Why the currency column matters more than it looks

Three practical consequences when you are writing a deal post:

  • You cannot copy the price across storefronts. A €59.00 deal on amazon.de is not a £59.00 deal on amazon.co.uk. Convert, or quote the local figure — never assume.
  • Discount percentages differ per marketplace. Local pricing, local VAT, and local promotions all move independently. The same product can be 51% off in one country and full price in another.
  • Your audience decides the storefront, not the product. A German deal posted to an Indian channel is a link nobody can buy from.

How Associates tracking works across regions

Amazon Associates is not a single global program. It is a separate program per marketplace: separate application, separate dashboard, and a separate tracking ID.

That is why a link tagged for one marketplace earns nothing on another. The tag parameter is read by the storefront that serves the page, and that storefront only recognises IDs issued by its own program.

Two practical notes:

  • Availability varies. Most of the marketplaces above run a local Associates program, but not all of them do — check the Associates signup page for the country you are targeting before you build a channel around it.
  • Approval is per program. Being approved on amazon.com does not automatically approve you on amazon.co.uk; you apply to each one.

Picking the right marketplace for a post

A short decision order that avoids most mistakes:

  1. Where is the audience? That is the storefront they can actually buy from.
  2. Does that storefront carry the product? Catalogue overlap is high but not total.
  3. Is the discount real there? Check the local page, not the US page.
  4. Are you enrolled in that program? If not, the tagged link earns nothing.

Keeping this list accurate

Amazon adds and retires storefronts — amazon.co.za and amazon.eg are recent additions, and amazon.com.be replaced an earlier Belgian arrangement. If you spot a marketplace this list is missing, tell us at [email protected] and we will update it.

Deals Copier tracks this same list internally: it detects which of the 22 storefronts you are on and applies the matching affiliate region, so a deal captured on amazon.co.jp does not get your US tracking ID attached to it.
