Earn 30% commission on a WordPress plugin Amazon affiliates actually want
PaapiPlugin does what Amazon display plugins do, with product boxes and comparison tables, and adds live Amazon search to the affiliate's own site. When someone you refer becomes a customer, we pay you 30% of their first purchase, on Premium and on each optional addon.
- 30% of a new customer's first purchase
- 30-day cookie, first-click attribution
- Free version on WordPress.org so visitors install before they buy
You earn 30% of a new customer's first purchase
| What you sell | Customer pays | You earn (30% of first purchase) |
|---|---|---|
| Premium, Personal plan | $39/yr | $11.70 |
| Premium, Professional plan | $69/yr | $20.70 |
| Premium, Agency plan | $99/yr | $29.70 |
| Each addon | $19/yr | $5.70 |
Commission is 30% of a new customer's first purchase. Renewals earn no commission. The figures above use list prices. Commission is calculated after refunds, discounts, coupons and taxes, so a discounted sale earns less than the table shows. Premium is required to use any addon. The 3 addons (Product Boxes, Comparison Tables, Analytics) are sold separately at $19/yr each.
Why publishers convert on this offer
-
Solves a real pain
Amazon affiliates lose commissions every time a visitor leaves to search Amazon directly. PaapiPlugin keeps them on-site, tagged with the publisher's Associate ID, so the publisher earns on whatever they buy. Not just the products that were manually reviewed.
-
One shortcode, no coding
[psfa_search] and the publisher has a live Amazon storefront. Visual builder included for customization.
-
Genuinely free version
The free version on WordPress.org is fully functional: live search, 5 categories, 5 pages of results, autocomplete, smart filters, caching, infinite scroll. Buyers self-select after seeing it work.
-
Modern stack, modern UI
React 19 with build-time SSR. 6-axis appearance system. A comprehensive test suite. Compatible with WordPress 5.8 through 6.9.
-
Product displays and search in one plugin
Product Boxes and Comparison Tables handle the product displays affiliates already put in their posts. Live search picks up whatever else a visitor wants to buy. Your audience gets both from one plugin.
See PaapiPlugin in action
A quick look at live Amazon search running on a WordPress site.
Four angles that work for our audience
1. Comparison content
"Best Amazon affiliate WordPress plugins" listicles. PaapiPlugin slots in as the live-search option versus AAWP, Lasso, AmaLinks Pro, and Content Egg Pro. Comparison pages live at /compare/ that you can link to or pull screenshots from.
2. Problem-aware tutorials
"How to add Amazon search to your WordPress site." Walk through the install, drop in [psfa_search], show it working. The free version is genuinely usable so the demo lands.
3. Niche-site case studies
Pick a niche (tech reviews, kitchen gear, home gym), show how PaapiPlugin turns the site into a browsable Amazon storefront beyond the static review links.
4. Agency and client-site content
For audiences who build WordPress sites for clients. Show one shortcode adding live Amazon search to a client's affiliate site, then show Premium's white-label mode removing the "Powered by" branding so the search looks like part of the site. The Agency plan covers unlimited sites.

Frequently asked questions
How much can I actually earn from one customer?
You earn 30% of a new customer's first purchase. Personal ($39/yr) earns you $11.70, Professional ($69/yr) earns $20.70, and Agency ($99/yr) earns $29.70. Each addon ($19/yr) earns $5.70. Renewals earn no commission. These figures use list prices. Commission is calculated after refunds, discounts, coupons and taxes, so a discounted sale earns less than these figures show.
How do I track conversions?
Freemius, our checkout platform, handles tracking and gives you your referral link and a stats dashboard. Every visitor who clicks your link gets a 30-day cookie. Attribution is first-click: the first affiliate link the buyer clicked gets the sale. You can also get a personal discount code, and sales that use it are credited to you even without a link click.
When do I get paid?
Referrals stay pending for 30 days. After that, commission is paid monthly by PayPal once your balance reaches $100 USD.
Can I bid on PaapiPlugin brand keywords in paid search?
No. Brand bidding (PaapiPlugin, paapi plugin, paapi product search, brand-plus-modifier, common misspellings) is prohibited and earns no commission. Generic / non-brand PPC requires written approval before any paid campaign goes live.
What promotional methods are allowed?
Editorial content (blog posts, reviews, comparisons, tutorials, listicles), email marketing to your own opt-in list, organic social posts, YouTube videos, podcasts, comparison pages, free or paid newsletters. Self-referrals, coupon and cashback sites, loyalty / rebate sites, browser toolbars, and incentivized installs are not allowed.
What happens if a customer refunds?
We offer a 7-day money-back guarantee: if the plugin is unusable and we are unable to resolve the issue within 7 days of your purchase, we will refund you in full. Referrals stay pending for 30 days, and a refund in that window cancels the commission.
