For WordPress sites that earn with Amazon Associates
Managed API (Beta): live Amazon product results. Set up in 30 seconds.
It returns live Amazon product results on your WordPress site without setting up your own Amazon API credentials yet. Your Amazon Associate tag always stays yours.
The settings screen that stops you
The usual first step
You've just joined Amazon Associates. You install an Amazon product plugin, open its settings, and the first thing it asks for is Amazon API credentials. If you're new, you may not have those yet, so your posts go out with plain text links in the meantime.
Another way to start
- Start withManaged API (Beta)
- Switch with one toggleYour own Creators API credentials
PaapiPlugin gives you another way to start. Turn on our Managed API (Beta) and your site shows live Amazon product results without setting up your own Amazon API credentials yet. Once you have your own Creators API credentials, you can switch over with one toggle, and you don't have to rebuild your pages.
What it doesn't do
On the Managed API (Beta), product cards don't show a price. Each one has a "Check price on Amazon" button instead. And on the free plan, the Managed API (Beta) stops at 20 searches a day and 600 a month.

This demo runs on sample products. Tap a search or type your own.

These results come from sample products, not from Amazon. On your site the same box shows live Amazon results, each tagged with your Associate ID.
Put one product in its own box, right where it fits in a post. Find it with the search, save it with one click and place it with a shortcode.
A sample product, shown in each of the three box layouts. On your site the box shows the product you picked, with your Associate ID on the link.
Side-by-side tables for your "X vs Y" and best-of posts. Add products straight from the search results and name a winner. On phones the table scrolls sideways instead of squashing.
Sample products, shown in three of the table's layouts. On your site the table holds the products you chose, and every link carries your Associate ID.
Analytics shows what readers search for and which products they click, in a dashboard in your WordPress admin. It doesn't use cookies or collect personal data.

Before you install
Is this allowed by Amazon?
PaapiPlugin is third-party software. It isn't made by, affiliated with, or endorsed by Amazon. Every product link carries your own Associate tag, and you stay responsible for following the Amazon Associates Program rules on your site, the same as with any plugin.
Will it slow my site down?
The search interface is rendered ahead of time, so it shows up with the page. Searches are cached for 30 minutes and product data for an hour, which keeps repeat searches quick.
Does it work with my theme and the block editor?
Yes. It's a shortcode, so it works in any theme. In the block editor, paste [psfa_search] into a Shortcode block. In the classic editor, paste it straight into the post.
Is free really free? What are the caps?
Yes. The free plugin on WordPress.org is the real plugin, not a trial. It includes live search with autocomplete, 5 Amazon categories and up to 50 products per search. On the Managed API (Beta), the free tier is 20 searches a day and 600 a month.
Why don't Managed API cards show prices?
On the Managed API (Beta), each card has a "Check price on Amazon" button instead of a price. Your reader sees the current price on Amazon when they click. If you connect your own Creators API credentials, cards show prices.
What happens if I cancel?
Premium and the add-ons renew once a year, and you can cancel anytime. The free plugin stays free on WordPress.org. If you hit an issue that makes the plugin unusable and we can't fix it, ask within 7 days of purchase and we'll refund you.
What it costs
The plugin is free on WordPress.org. Premium is $39/yr for one site, $69 for three or $99 for unlimited sites. Product Boxes, Comparison Tables and Analytics are $19/yr add-ons, and each one needs Premium.
