Can I Find Out Which Amazon Account Is Connected to a Subaccount?
With this feature, you can quickly see if a subaccount is connected to Amazon and which specific Amazon Advertising account (profile) is assigned.
Answer
Yes, you can always see which Amazon account is connected to a subaccount. There are two ways to do this: Either open the subaccount in Manage Advertisers and check the Profile section for the linked Amazon accounts, or log in directly to the subaccount and go to the Amazon Connection section. Both options display the name of the connected Amazon advertising account. For seller accounts, you can also view the corresponding Seller ID.
Accessing the Function
You have two simple ways to retrieve this information:
Option A: Directly in management (fast and without switching users)
- Open the menu and select Manage Advertisers.
- Find the desired subaccount in the table.
- Click on Edit.
- In the Profile section, you'll find a list of all known Amazon profiles. The connected profiles are selected. The columns Account, Type (Seller/Vendor), Country, and Current Owner show you all relevant details at a glance. For seller profiles, you can also hover your mouse over the name in Account to view the Seller ID.
Option B: Directly in the subaccount
- Open the menu and navigate to Manage Advertisers.
- Click Login next to the desired subaccount.
- Within the subaccount, go to Account Settings and select Amazon Connection.
- In the Selling Partner (Seller/Vendor) section, you will see the names of all connected Amazon accounts.
Settings & Options
- In the Manage Advertisers view, the Connections column instantly shows if the subaccount is connected to Amazon. If no connection is active, it says not connected.
- Clicking Edit gives you a comprehensive view of the relevant profiles. Use the filter fields above the table to search specifically by Account, Type, Country, or Current Owner.
- The Updated symbol indicates when the profile list was last refreshed. Clicking it reloads the profile overview.
- In the Amazon Connection section, you will find tabs for different regions, such as Europe & India, North America, or Far East. In the Selling Partner (Seller/Vendor) section, all connected accounts are listed by name.
Limitations & Special Notes
- Access rights: Only administrators can use the Manage Advertisers menu. If you lack permission, you will see the message: “You do not have access to this function.”
- Connection status: If you see not connected for a subaccount, there is no active Amazon connection. In this case, you should establish the connection in the relevant account under Amazon Connection.
- Data freshness: If a profile appears missing or data incomplete, try reloading the list in Edit > Profile using the Updated button.
Tips & Best Practices
- The quickest way to check is by using the Login button for the subaccount and viewing the names of the connected accounts under Amazon Connection.
- For Seller accounts, hover over the account name in Profile to see the Seller ID.
- Always check all regions in Amazon Connection if you manage accounts in multiple markets.
