Frequently asked questions, answered

Where do I apply?

Applications can be submitted via the Partner Success Stories (PSS) Hub.

Do I need to create an account to apply?

Yes, you will need to create an account within the PSS Hub. To create an account, enter your email address (choose an email address you regularly access, you will need this to verify your account) and set a unique password. This will become your login for creating and managing your submission(s).

I am a returning applicant. Do I need a new account to apply?

No. If you submitted in 2023 or 2024, or have submitted a case study via the PSS Hub, please use the same email address and password to access your account.

When does the application period close?

The PSS hub will close for Partner Awards submissions at 11:59 PM PT on June 13, 2025.

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

Yes, your application will need to include a signed client release form. We recommend downloading the client release form and obtaining your advertiser’s signature in advance, so that you are ready to attach it to your application. Applications without a signed client release form will be disqualified. You can access the client release form by contacting your Amazon Ads represntative or downloading it directly from the PSS Hub, within the Client Signatory tab in the Partner Awards application.

What are the 2025 Partner Awards eligibility criteria?
  • Partners must be Advanced or Verified in the Amazon Ads Partner Network as of May 1 and be certified to be eligible for the Partner Awards.
  • The advertiser featured in the partner submission must be linked within the partner's Partner Network account. The advertiser also must not have been featured in a finalist or winner campaign in 2024 to ensure a variety of customer challenges across an array of advertisers are represented. To check past winners, please view the past winners or contact partnerawards@amazon.com to find out more.
  • The advertiser can be from a brand that sells product or servics on or off the Amazon store, and can be based anywhere in the world. However, for regional awards, the featured advertiser must be advertising in the associated region for a partner to be considered for the award.
What are the 2025 Partner Awards submission criteria?
  • The applying partner must have achieved advanced or verified partner status within Amazon Ads Partner Network to enter the Partner Awards.
  • All participating partners must agree to the terms and conditions of the program.
  • For regional awards, The Full Funnel Advertising Award, Brand Storytelling Award, Seasonal Sales Strategy Award or Challenger Brand Award, partners will need to reference a successful campaign strategy for an advertising client in either AMER (North/South America), EMEA (Europe/Middle East) or APAC (Asia Pacific).
  • For global awards, The Technology Innovation Award, Global Expansion Award, AI Innovation Award, or Performance Optimization Award, partners can reference a successful campaign strategy for an advertising client that took place in any country, region, or worldwide.
  • All submissions require a signed client release form signed by the advertiser/client mentioned in the application. If a submission does not contain a signed client release form, the submission will be disqualified.
  • Each submission should showcase a unique advertiser success story. If the same advertiser client and success story is submitted across multiple categories, unfortunately, all entries will be disqualified.
  • All submissions and supporting documentation must not include partner/agency name or any identifiable information that would make you known to judges (including proprietary tool names) to ensure a fair and equitable judging process. Any entries that do not adhere to this will be removed from judging.
  • Joint submissions from two partners are accepted. In such cases, both partners must individually accept the terms and conditions of the program.
Can I submit multiple award entries?

Partners are welcome to submit entries for multiple awards but must use a different case study for each submission. For example: You can enter the same award category in different regions as long as you use a different case study for each entry. You could submit for the Challenger Award in EMEA with one case study, and the Challenger Award in APAC with a different case study. Similarly, you can enter different award categories (like the Full Funnel Award and Brand Storytelling Award) as long as each entry features a unique case study. The same case study cannot be used for multiple award submissions, regardless of category or region.

Can award entries be submitted without disclosing the advertiser’s name?

No, all submissions require a named advertiser (and signed client release form) to provide context and depth to the advertiser use case and impact. Having client permission ensures advertiser consent and transparency of the award submission.

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

We will use the information to assess your submission and determine winners. We may also use submissions to exemplify Amazon Ads success in future marketing materials and for other purposes.

Where can I find more information about the Partner Awards categories, judging process, and program details?

Please contact your Amazon Ads representative who will provide you with updates, share the entry handbook when available, and inform you about upcoming Partner Awards webinars and resources. Your representative is your best point of contact for all things Awards-related. Alternatively, you can reach out to partnerawards@amazon.com.
