How the link checker works

1
Open your video
Open any YouTube video with Amazon affiliate links in its description — or paste a whole channel to check in bulk.
2
Scan every link
AffiliScan expands the description, finds every Amazon link, and checks each one in seconds — even short amzn.to links.
3
Fix what is broken
Each link comes back Working, broken, or unavailable. In your AffiliScan dashboard, the broken ones collect in one list where a click finds a replacement product for you.

Why check your affiliate links?

Amazon products go out of stock, listings get removed, and affiliate tags get stripped — and nothing tells you. A dead link earns nothing but keeps collecting clicks.

Catch broken links

Find the dead “page not found” links that send your viewers — and your commissions — to nowhere.

Spot out-of-stock products

See which products show “Currently unavailable” so you can swap them for something people can actually buy.

Protect your commission

Confirm your affiliate tag is still on every link, so the sales you send to Amazon are actually credited to you.

Frequently asked questions

Is the Amazon affiliate link checker free?

Yes. AffiliScan is a free Chrome extension that scans a YouTube video description and checks every Amazon affiliate link in it. There is a free plan with no card required; paid Creator plans add automatic scheduled scanning and email alerts.

How do I check if my Amazon affiliate links are broken?

Install the free AffiliScan extension, open one of your YouTube videos, and click Scan. It expands the description, finds every Amazon link, and flags each one as working, broken (a dead page), or unavailable (out of stock) — in seconds.

Can it find a replacement for a broken product?

Yes. Your scanned links collect in a "Links to fix" list in the AffiliScan dashboard, and every broken or unavailable one has a Find Replacement button that automatically searches Amazon for a working product — the same one where it still exists, or a close match — so you can swap in a fresh link instead of hunting for it yourself. You get a few replacement searches free to try, and paid Creator plans include more.

Can I check the affiliate links on a whole YouTube channel?

Yes. As well as single videos, AffiliScan can scan an entire channel or playlist in one pass, so you can check hundreds of links at once instead of opening every video by hand.

Does it check short amzn.to links too?

Yes. AffiliScan follows short amzn.to links (and links on every Amazon marketplace worldwide) to the real product page before checking whether it still works.

Will it tell me if my affiliate tag is missing?

Yes. A link can still load but have your affiliate tag stripped from it, which means the sale is not credited to you. AffiliScan flags those so you can fix them and keep earning.
