Frequently asked questions, answered

When will the 2026 categories be announced?

The 2026 Partner Awards categories will be announced in mid-February. Please keep an eye out for more information on our social channels and visit this page for the most up-to-date information.

When will 2026 submissions open?

The 2026 Partner Awards submission window opens mid-March and closes mid-April. During this period, you'll submit a short-form entry detailing how you solved an advertiser challenge and the results you achieved. Based on feedback from 2025 applicants, we've reduced the length of the submission form to simplify the process this year.

Will I need written consent from the advertiser featured in the award submission?

Advertisers must be named in the initial submission, but written consent is not required at that stage. After the first phase of evaluation, submissions moving forward for finalist and winner evaluation will be required to provide a written consent form. This allows you more time to complete the necessary requirements.

How will submissions be evaluated?

All submissions will be evaluated against category-specific criteria. A committee of jurors, comprised of external industry leaders and Amazon experts, will determine the finalists and winners. Past jurors have included representatives from organizations such as the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB), The New York Times, and Kantar.

How will Amazon use the information I provide in my award submission?

We will use the information to assess your submission and determine the 2026 finalists and winners. All submissions will be considered for future marketing opportunities, such as case study publications, content opportunities, and events.
