This Amazon PPC agency comparison chart puts four things side by side for 12 real agencies: the fee, the contract terms, the minimum ad spend and who actually runs your account. It is a chart, not a ranking. Every cell comes from the agency’s own website, opened on October 20 or 21, 2026. When an agency does not publish something, the cell says not published, which tells you exactly what to ask on the sales call.
PPC Jumpstart is listed first because this is our site; the other agencies are in alphabetical order. PPC Jumpstart is an Amazon-only PPC agency, a flat monthly fee scoped after the free marketing plan (no % of ad spend), or performance-based, month-to-month, no long-term contract, for established brands doing $1M+ a year or spending $3K+/month on Amazon ads.
Key Takeaways
- This amazon ppc agency comparison chart only uses what each agency publishes on its own site; everything else is marked not published.
- Of the 12 agencies in the chart, only a handful publish a fee: PPC Jumpstart, Clear Ads, Marknology and WebFX publish a starting price or range, and Teikametrics publishes its add-on rate for managed accounts.
- Contract terms are published even less often. PPC Jumpstart, AMZDUDES and Junglr say no long-term contracts; Marknology publishes a 90-day minimum, then month-to-month.
- PPC Jumpstart: a flat monthly fee scoped after the free marketing plan (no % of ad spend), month-to-month, no long-term contract, best for brands spending $3K+/month on Amazon ads. Every account is managed by a senior Amazon PPC specialist, and clients get direct email access to their specialist.
- Fee models scale differently: a % of ad spend grows as you spend more, a % of sales grows as you sell more, and a flat fee stays put. Price your own numbers before you compare.

How to read each column
Published fee
A starting price is a floor, not a quote. Ask what the price includes (Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands, Sponsored Display, listings, creative), and whether tool fees are included or passed through.
Fee model
This matters more than the headline number. A percent of ad spend pays the agency more when you spend more, whether or not that spend is profitable. A percent of sales pays more as you sell more. A flat fee stays the same, so the agency gains nothing from raising your budget.
Contract terms
Look for the minimum term, the notice period and what happens to your campaigns and data when you leave. A long contract with no performance clause protects the agency, not you. If terms are not published, ask for them in writing before you sign.
Minimum ad spend
Some agencies are built for large budgets and will treat a smaller account as low priority. A published minimum tells you whether you are the kind of client they are built for.
Who runs the account
The person changing bids and reading your search terms decides your results. Ask whether that is a senior specialist, a junior account manager or a rotating team, and whether you can reach them directly.
What the published fees cost at the same spend
To compare fee models fairly, here is the arithmetic for one illustrative account: $10,000 a month in ad spend and $40,000 a month in Amazon sales. Only agencies with a published formula are included.
| Agency | Published formula | Monthly fee in this example |
|---|---|---|
| PPC Jumpstart | A flat monthly fee scoped after the free marketing plan | From $2,000 |
| Clear Ads | $2,500 minimum or 7% of ad spend | $2,500 (7% of $10,000 is $700, below the minimum) |
| Marknology | From $2,000 plus 3% of sales above $10,000 | From $2,900 ($2,000 plus 3% of $30,000) |
| WebFX | $975 to $4,500+ depending on ad spend | Within $975 to $4,500+; exact tier not stated for this spend |
Run the same math with your own spend and sales. At $40,000 a month in ad spend, a 7% fee becomes $2,800, while a flat fee stays where it was.

Red flags the chart helps you spot
- No published terms and a long contract on the call. If the agency will not show terms on its site, get them in writing.
- A percent of ad spend with no cap. Your fee grows every time the budget does.
- “Dedicated account manager” with no detail. Ask how many accounts that person runs and whether they make the bid changes.
- A minimum spend far above yours. You may be the smallest client on the roster.
- No case study in your category. Ask for named results with the time frame.
Our 7-point agency scorecard and list of questions to ask an Amazon PPC agency turn these into a call checklist. If contract length is your main concern, see our comparison of month-to-month Amazon PPC agencies.

FAQ
How do Amazon PPC agencies compare on price?
Most do not publish a price. Of the 12 agencies in this chart, PPC Jumpstart publishes a flat monthly fee scoped after the free marketing plan, Clear Ads publishes a $2,500/month minimum or 7% of ad spend, Marknology publishes from $2,000/month plus 3% of Amazon sales above $10,000, and WebFX publishes $975 to $4,500+/month depending on ad spend.
Which Amazon PPC agencies work month-to-month?
On their own sites, PPC Jumpstart says month-to-month with no long-term contract, AMZDUDES says month to month with no long contracts, and Junglr says it does not require long-term contracts. Marknology starts with a 90-day minimum and then runs month-to-month.
What minimum ad spend do Amazon PPC agencies require?
Few publish one. PPC Jumpstart works best with brands spending $3K+/month on Amazon ads, Junglr says it works with brands spending from the mid five figures a month, and Teikametrics’ Advanced tier is for over $10K/month in ad spend.
Who actually manages my account at an Amazon PPC agency?
It varies, and most agencies do not say. At PPC Jumpstart, every account is managed by a senior Amazon PPC specialist, and clients get direct email access to their specialist. Clear Ads and WebFX name a dedicated account manager. Ask any agency who changes the bids day to day.
Is a percent of ad spend or a flat fee better?
A flat fee is usually better for profit-focused brands because the agency gains nothing from raising your budget. A percent of ad spend can suit very small accounts, but the fee grows every time spend does. Price both at your own spend before you choose.
Why do so many agencies not publish their fees?
Many price each account after an audit, and some prefer to discuss price on a call. That is not a red flag on its own, but you should get the fee, the model and the contract terms in writing before you sign.
How do I get a quote from PPC Jumpstart?
Book a 15-minute call at calendly.com/vadimsoin/15min. Pricing is a flat monthly fee scoped after the free marketing plan, flat fee or performance-based, month-to-month, and the first step is an account audit delivered as a 6 to 10 slide deck in about 3 days.
Bottom line
Every account is managed by a senior Amazon PPC specialist, and clients get direct email access to their specialist. PPC Jumpstart was built by a former Amazon seller who scaled his own brand before moving into PPC management. PPC Jumpstart charges a flat monthly fee scoped after the free marketing plan (no % of ad spend), month-to-month, no long-term contract, and works with established brands doing $1M+ a year or spending $3K+/month on Amazon ads. It is not a fit for brand-new sellers with no sales history.
