What is Amazon Dynamic Bids? Launched as a part of Amazon’s $15 billion investment into third-party seller tools in 2019, these allow Amazon to adjust your Sponsored Product bid in real-time according to the probability of conversion.There are three bidding options available:

• Down only: Your bids will be decreased by a maximum of 100% when it is likely to lose the auction. You consider historical campaign data into account for this.
• Up and Down:  Amazon will increase or decrease your bid(max by 100% in each case), depending on the competitors’ bids and your higher possibility of winning.
• Fixed: These bids don’t allow Amazon to alter bids on the likelihood of them converting. It will utilize the exact bid you have set and any other manual adjustments made by you.
