The basics

What changes when you advertise on Amazon.com.au

Amazon.com.au runs the same sponsored ads as Amazon.com. What changes is the size of the market, how Australians search, what a sale is worth after GST, when demand peaks and who you bid against. An Australian account needs its own plan.

  • A smaller marketEvery search term counts
  • Prices include GSTTargets set on what you keep
  • An Australian calendarEOFY to Boxing Day

What changes on Amazon.com.au

Four things
SizeKeywords

Fewer searches, so every term counts

Amazon.com.au has far fewer shoppers than Amazon.com, so wasted clicks hurt sooner and long, specific search terms carry more of your sales. We build keywords from Australian search data and harvest new ones every week.

GSTTargets

Targets set after GST

Prices on Amazon.com.au include 10% GST. We check how your ad reports count it and set ACoS targets from the revenue you keep after GST and fees.

CalendarBudgets

Budgets for Australian peaks

End of financial year sales in June, Prime Day in July, Black Friday and Cyber Monday in November, then Christmas and Boxing Day. Budgets are raised before each one.

RivalsCompetition

Rivals from home and abroad

On Amazon.com.au you bid against local brands and against sellers shipping from overseas, often on the same search terms.

Where the money goes

Where Australian ad spend gets wasted

These four gaps cost Amazon.com.au accounts the most. Each one has a plain fix.

01Leak

US campaigns copied to Australia

Keywords, bids and budgets copied from Amazon.com chase US words and US click prices in a much smaller market.

FixKeywords and bids rebuilt from Australian data.
02Leak

Targets that forget GST

An ACoS target set on sales that include GST looks safe while the margin you keep is thinner than it seems.

FixBreak-even ACoS worked out after GST and fees.
03Leak

Budgets that miss EOFY and Q4

Daily budgets sized for a normal week run out in the June sales or on Black Friday, when Australians are buying.

Reporting on ACoS alone

ACoS says what a sale cost. It does not say whether rivals are taking your top searches on Amazon.com.au.

FAQ

Australian Amazon PPC FAQs

Straight answers, no sales spin.

Do you work with Australian brands on Amazon.com.au?
Yes. We run Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands and Sponsored Display for brands selling on Amazon.com.au, with the same senior strategists and weekly reporting as our US accounts.
Is Amazon.com.au big enough for PPC?
For brands with steady sales there, yes. Search volumes are lower than in the US, so we keep the account tight: fewer, better search terms, and budget moved quickly to what sells.
How do you handle GST in ACoS targets?
Prices on Amazon.com.au include 10% GST. We check whether your ad reports count sales with or without it, work out break-even ACoS on the same basis from your price after GST, Amazon fees and product cost, and set targets from that.
Do you bill in Australian dollars?
No. Our flat monthly fee is billed in US dollars: $1,000, $2,500 or $5,000 a month, depending on your ad spend. Your ad spend itself is billed to you by Amazon, as normal.
What time zone do you work in?
Amplivus is headquartered in Texas. Strategy calls are booked in your own time zone, and your strategist replies within 24 hours.
Can you also run our ads in the US or the UK?
Yes. When the Australian account is healthy, we can plan Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk as a next step and report every market together.
How soon will we see results?
Wasted spend usually falls in the first weeks, as search terms that do not sell are cut. Across our accounts, ACoS is around 20% lower within 90 days. We agree targets and a timeline in your free audit.
How do we start?
Request a free Market Share Audit. We look at your Amazon.com.au account and your share of the top searches in your category next to your top 3 rivals, then send the plan and a flat monthly quote in writing. No obligation.
