In the world of affiliate marketing, Amazon’s affiliate program remains one of the most popular starting points for both newcomers and established marketers. The number of products offered on Amazon, combined with the trust the site has built over decades, makes it pretty easy to drive conversions - it’s no surprise that so many content creators try the Amazon Associates program to monetize their content.

As with any popular system, there are third-party developers building tools and plugins to help make success that much easier. One of these tools is EasyAzon, an Amazon Associates affiliate plugin for WordPress. What is it, what does it do, and is it still worth it in 2026? Let’s find out.

What is EasyAzon?

EasyAzon is a WordPress plugin designed to smooth along the process of creating and taking care of Amazon affiliate links directly from within your post editor - it’s a fairly focused plugin - it doesn’t try to do everything - but for the right user, it can save a fair amount.

Before we dig in too deep, one thing worth mentioning is that EasyAzon has an affiliate program of its own. That means the existing reviews out there will give it a glowing score basically because those writers are earning commissions on sales. None of the links in this post are affiliate links and I’m not inflating the score to sell you anything. You can always try the free version yourself and decide if it’s worth upgrading.

It’s also worth mentioning first: new Amazon Associates can’t access the Amazon Product Advertising API until they have made at least 3 qualifying sales. Since EasyAzon relies on API access for a few of its features, brand-new affiliates may find the plugin’s functionality limited until they reach that threshold.

Now let’s talk about the different versions of EasyAzon and what features they give you. First up, you have the free WordPress plugin, available in the WordPress plugin repository.

The free version of EasyAzon has the ability to create Amazon affiliate links from directly within your WordPress post editor - this removes the need to jump back and forth between Amazon and WordPress, copying and pasting links manually. The plugin also lets you manage your affiliate links site-wide from one place - controlling if they’re followed or nofollowed, if they open in a new tab, and so on. You can also override these settings on a per-link basis if you need it.

You are, however, limited to text-only Amazon affiliate links in the free version. No product images, no info boxes, no buy buttons; it’s the trade-off for the free tier.

The free plugin has maintained around 10,000+ active installations and holds an average rating of 4 out of 5 stars in the WordPress plugin repository. Negative reviews tend to cite slow support response times and sudden delays in compatibility updates following new WordPress releases.

EasyAzon Pro

EasyAzon’s Pro version unlocks a wider set of features. The most notable upgrade is the ability to insert extra link types beyond plain text - like image links using Amazon product photos, product information boxes, and “buy now” buttons directly within your content.

The Pro version also includes automatic link cloaking - it’s worth being clear-eyed about what cloaking actually does here: savvy readers will still find these affiliate links regardless of how they’re formatted, and cloaking alone doesn’t give you any actual SEO benefit. There are legitimate organizational reasons to cloak links. But it shouldn’t be treated as a magic answer.

Another Pro feature is hover pop-ups - when a reader hovers over an affiliate link, a small overlay appears showing extra product details. That can help them decide whether to click through.

You can also create add-to-cart links, which send users directly to their Amazon cart instead of to the product page.

Pro users can also manage multiple affiliate IDs within a single installation - helpful if you’re running a few sites, splitting revenue between contributors, or taking care of affiliate accounts across different Amazon marketplaces.

Perhaps the most helpful Pro feature is automatic link localization. By default, your Amazon affiliate links point to your home marketplace - Amazon.com, just to give you an example. When an international visitor clicks that link, they may land on their regional Amazon storefront. But your affiliate tracking doesn’t carry over. You earn nothing from that click. EasyAzon’s localization feature detects the visitor’s location and automatically routes them through the appropriate regional affiliate link, which lets you earn commissions from traffic in countries like the UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, and others where Amazon runs its own Associates program. For sites with meaningful international traffic, this feature alone can justify the cost of the plugin.

EasyAzon Pro comes in two pricing tiers:

  • $47 - Unlimited personal websites
  • $67 - Unlimited personal, client, and flip websites

Both tiers include an Amazon Affiliate Marketing guide covering topics like creating WordPress affiliate sites, setting up an Amazon Associates account, content creation, traffic generation, and earnings optimization. Choose the $47 option if you’re building sites for yourself. Go with the $67 version if you’re doing affiliate work for clients or building sites to sell on marketplaces like Flippa.

Is EasyAzon Worth the Money?

My rating lands at around 3 out of 5. EasyAzon is not the best plugin on the market. But it’s not an overpriced scam either - it does what it says, and it does it reasonably well.

On the positive side, EasyAzon legitimately saves time on link creation and management, and that’s also the case across bigger sites. The free version gives you a basic taste of the workflow before paying. The link localization feature is the standout - if your site draws international traffic, capturing affiliate value from those clicks can pay for the plugin fairly quickly.

On the downside, customer support has historically been a steady weak point - even according to otherwise positive reviews. If you run into a technical issue and need help, don’t count on a fast resolution.

There have also been some reported friction points around upgrading - like remnants of the free plugin staying in the control panel after switching to Pro, giving the appearance of duplicate installations. Minor. But annoying.

EasyAzon plugin pricing and features comparison

The bigger con is basically that stronger alternatives are out there. AAWP, just to give you an example, has a wider feature set including product comparison tables, top lists, and more flexible display templates, along with more active developer support. The trade-off is price - AAWP’s unlimited license runs close to $350, which is a bit of a step up from EasyAzon’s $67. Whether that gap is worth it depends on the scale of your operation and how much you’re investing in Amazon affiliate revenue.

If you’re running a mid-sized affiliate site, have international traffic, and want a reasonably priced plugin that handles the fundamentals well, EasyAzon Pro is a defensible choice. If you’re taking care of multiple high-traffic sites or need more advanced display and customization options, it may be worth stretching the budget for a more capable tool.
