2 Types of Amazon DSP Campaign – Which is Right For You?
Unlike Sponsored Ads, Amazon DSP offers the flexibility to run campaigns that guide users to either Amazon or non-Amazon destinations.
If you’re guiding users to an Amazon destination, like a particular product detail page, you’re executing a link-in campaign. On the other hand, if you’re directing users to a non-Amazon destination, such as your brand’s website, you’re implementing a link-out campaign.
Now, let’s explore each Amazon DSP campaign type in depth:
Link-In Campaigns:
Link-in campaigns can only be used by brands that sell goods or services on the Amazon platform. Advertisers can target the audience based on a wide variety of attributes and drive them to their Amazon product detail pages.
Here is a basic example of how a link-in campaign works:
A customer visits an Amazon product page or a third-party website.
The customer sees an ad for the candy.
The customer clicks on the ad and is taken to the candy brand’s Amazon product page.

Link-Out Campaigns:
Link-out campaigns are designed to drive traffic to external websites. They can be used to promote products that are not available on Amazon or to drive traffic to a brand’s website.
Here is an example of how a link-out campaign works:
A customer is browsing travel accessories on a website.
An ad is shown from a travel agency offering vacation packages or flight deals.
The customer clicks on the ad and is directed to the travel agency’s website to explore and book travel services.
