For some reason, it has taken me this long just to find out why the HELL my affiliate earnings have shot down tremendously.

The freaking affiliate links don't auto open within the amazon app when clicked anymore. They open in a browser on your phone which makes the customer have to re-login.

WTF!?!?!

Why would they make it like this? It needs to be a smooth easy checkout process for the customer for more conversions and ROI.


Is there a way to make my custom links auto open within the users app?

Maybe it's not possible to pass the referrer to the app on your own, so maybe it's not possible anymore.
 
Which platform are we talking about? Sadly I don't have much experience with ios specifically. As for Android, it's a security thing afaik, to open urls in the built in browser (and it's not about amazon specifically). Deleted member 923340 knows a hell lot better than me about mobile platforms. So, wait for him to see this.

Perhaps something like this could work:
https://reactnative.dev/docs/linking
Edit: the idea is to not use https:// scheme, but use app specific schemes instead. You might need special permission for that. Also, please do test the solution even if it seems to work. It might not actually be allowed. So, better be safe than sorry lol. :)

Yea that's what I am wondering..

Yea I would like to know because its going to ruin conversion rates if customers have to do multiple steps to complete purchase and not just click 1 button
