Frequently asked questions

We exclusively recommend Publisher Rocket (formerly KDP Rocket). Publisher Rocket helps Amazon self-publishers find profitable keywords, evaluate 16,000+ KDP categories, analyze competitor book sales, and generate targeted AMS advertising search terms. It is available for a one-time purchase with lifetime updates.

Review Router is a SaaS platform for Amazon KDP authors that creates smart review links. When a reader clicks your link, they're automatically redirected to the review page on their local Amazon marketplace — whether that's amazon.com, amazon.co.uk, amazon.de, or any of the 21 Amazon stores worldwide. It also includes dynamic QR codes, a thank-you page generator, and real-time analytics.

About 60 seconds per book. Paste your ASIN (or click 'Fetch from Amazon' to auto-fill title, subtitle, author and cover), pick your primary marketplace, and you get a short smart link plus a dynamic QR code instantly. You can bulk-import an Excel or CSV of ASINs on the Pro plan to onboard a whole backlist in one go.

Not at all. Review Router is designed for authors, not developers. You paste your ASIN, get a link, and share it. The QR studio, thank-you page generator, and analytics dashboard are all point-and-click — no coding, no design tools, no technical setup.

Yes. Smart links work in any format — ebook back-matter, newsletters, ads, social posts. QR codes and thank-you pages are specifically designed for print books (paperback and hardcover interiors) and export at 300 DPI for KDP.

When a reader clicks your link (e.g., reviewrouter.link/kdp/YOUR_ASIN), our edge worker detects their country in three layers: (1) Cloudflare's geolocation header, (2) their browser's language and locale, and (3) an IP-based fallback. Within milliseconds we 302-redirect them to the correct Amazon marketplace review page for that book — no interstitial page, no delay.

All 21 Amazon marketplaces: US, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Sweden, Poland, Belgium, Turkey, Canada, Mexico, Brazil, Japan, India, Australia, Singapore, UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. If Amazon doesn't sell your book in a reader's country, we fall back to your primary marketplace so the link still works.

We fall back to your primary marketplace (the one you set when adding the book). The reader still lands on a working Amazon page rather than a broken link or 'not available' error.

Yes, on Pro and Business plans. You can set custom slugs — for example, reviewrouter.link/kdp/my-book-name instead of the default ASIN-based URL. This is great for print materials and social sharing.

Yes. Your smart review links and QR codes stay live even after you cancel or downgrade — we never break redirects that are already printed in books or shared online. You just lose access to paid features and any books beyond the free 5-book limit become read-only.

Yes — that's exactly what the QR studio is built for. Every QR is dynamic, so you can pause or repoint a link without reprinting your book. Export it as a 300 DPI print-ready PDF, PNG, or SVG, choose a Card / Scan / Review frame, add your logo, and drop it straight into your KDP paperback interior.

All QR codes are dynamic. They point to your smart link, not directly to Amazon. This means you can update the destination, disable the link during promos, or change your primary marketplace — all without reprinting your book.

Yes. The QR studio lets you set foreground and background colours, add a center logo overlay (up to 20% of the QR area, safe thanks to Reed-Solomon error correction), and pick from Card, Scan, or Review frames.

Use 'Print-ready PDF' for KDP paperback and hardcover interiors — it's 300 DPI and CMYK-friendly. PNG works for social media and websites. SVG is best for merchandise and swag where you need infinite scalability.

It creates a print-ready page you can insert at the back of your paperback or hardcover. It includes a warm thank-you message, a review request, and a QR code — all formatted to your KDP trim size and exported as a 300 DPI PDF.

Yes. Upload your interior PDF, choose whether to place the thank-you page first or last, and download the merged file. It's print-ready and compatible with KDP's upload requirements.

Clicks per day, unique visitors (IP-hashed), country breakdown, device mix (mobile/desktop/tablet), top marketplaces, QR scans vs. direct clicks, UTM campaign parameters, and per-book click history with the last 500 events. All views have 7/30/90-day time range filters.

Yes. You can append standard UTM parameters (source, medium, campaign, term, content) to any smart link. The dashboard tracks these alongside country, device, and QR scan data so you can see exactly which campaigns drive the most clicks.

Yes. Every analytics card and every per-book click log exports to CSV. This is available on Pro and Business plans.

Payments run through Dodo Payments as Merchant of Record.

Yes. Review Router sends each reader to the correct Amazon store for their location and to the honest-review page for your book. It doesn't review-gate content, offer incentives, or influence what a review says. You're always responsible for following Amazon's Community Guidelines when you ask for reviews — Review Router doesn't change those rules.

No. Review Router is a link-routing tool. It directs readers to their local Amazon review page — it never gates content behind reviews, never offers incentives, and never influences what a reader writes. We encourage authors to always follow Amazon's Community Guidelines.
