BidX Review

As a marketplace ad tool, BidX runs Amazon Sponsored Ads and DSP campaigns with automated bidding by hour and its own rule-based controls. There is no free trial; new accounts instead start with a paid proof-of-concept period, and the price grows with ad spend.

Research-based review. Features and prices are checked on the vendor's own website, and the score is worked out from those facts. We haven't tested it hands-on yet.

The verdict

BidX suits sellers running Amazon DSP alongside sponsored ads, but it requires an annual commitment and skips ad creative, unlike Sellozo's flat, no-commitment pricing.

Pros

  • BidX automatically adjusts bids and keywords to hit a target ACOS across Amazon and Walmart campaigns.
  • A Campaign Creator builds new Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands and Video, and Sponsored Display campaigns, not just manages existing ones.
  • Amazon DSP is covered directly, running display and video ads alongside search campaigns.
  • One-on-one onboarding is included as a complimentary part of every plan.

Cons

  • There is no free plan.
  • There is no free trial; new customers instead go through a paid three-month proof-of-concept period.
  • Every plan requires an annual commitment with monthly payments.
  • Every Amazon Search and DSP tier adds an undisclosed percentage of connected ad spend on top of its base fee, with no published rate, floor or cap.

Why these numbers

Ad networks it manages: Counted from marketplaces_supported. Checked homepage and solutions nav for Google, Meta, TikTok, Microsoft, Instacart, eBay: none mentioned.

Bids by hour or day: Listed feature in the pricing page's platform feature overview.

Your own automation rules: Listed feature in the pricing page's platform feature overview.

Amazon DSP beyond sponsored ads: Amazon DSP is one of BidX's three core solution lines, with its own pricing tiers.

Makes the ad creative: AI is used for keyword suggestions, not for generating ad copy, images or video; checked pricing features and the Sponsored Ads solution page for 'creative', 'ad copy' and 'image' generation, found nothing.

A done-for-you tier: The published Self Service Platform price (€495 base) is software-only; Managed Platform (€1,995 base) and Managed Service (€4,995 base) are separate, much higher-priced tiers where BidX staff run the account, each still plus the same undisclosed % of connected ad spend.

Why these numbers

Its own Shopify App Store listing: No listing at the expected slug; BidX operates directly against Amazon's own Advertising and Selling Partner APIs, not through a storefront app.

Public API: This is a read-only MCP (Model Context Protocol) interface, not a conventional documented REST/GraphQL API: "For the start: read-only, by design; it can analyze everything and change nothing." No traditional public API/docs page found.

Single sign-on: This is Google-account SSO (OAuth/OIDC) for individual login, not a stated enterprise SAML SSO for a whole team; recorded true but with that caveat.

Onboarding included in a plan: Listed as a general included benefit on the pricing page, not restricted to a single named plan.

Ways to reach support: Counted from support_channels. Chat inferred from the privacy policy's cookie disclosure for the "Chatflows" tool ("used to recognize visitors who chat with you via the Chatflows tool"), a HubSpot live-chat widget. Email via support@bidx.io.

How the Spec Score works

Scored from what BidX publishes on its own site. Not a hands-on test.

Compared with 5 marketplace ad tools. Facts checked 24 Sep 2026.

A fact the vendor does not publish gets half the points, or the typical value for a number, and says so. It never counts as a no. How we score.

BidX automates Amazon and Walmart advertising, adjusting bids, building campaigns and running Amazon DSP display and video ads. What decides whether it suits you is the pricing structure: every tier adds an undisclosed percentage of your connected ad spend on top of a fixed base fee, so the bill moves with your spend even though the rate itself is never published.

What is BidX?

BidX is made by BidX GmbH, based in Darmstadt, Germany, and founded in 2018. It works against Amazon and Walmart directly through their advertising APIs rather than through a storefront app, and has no Shopify App Store listing. The main product is a web platform, with a companion BidX App for iOS and Android.

What BidX runs for you

BidX covers Amazon Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands and Video, and Sponsored Display, plus Amazon DSP for display and video ads, and it automatically adjusts bids and keywords to hit a target ACOS. Dayparting and automated negative keyword storage are both included, and a Campaign Creator builds new campaign structures rather than only managing existing ones.

Customized rules give control over how the automation behaves, and BidX offers a read-only MCP interface that connects to Claude, ChatGPT or another MCP client to query advertising data in plain language. AI is used for keyword suggestions, not for generating ad creative. Beyond the self-service software, Managed Platform and Managed Service tiers add a dedicated Growth Manager who handles strategy and operations, each still billed as the base fee plus the same undisclosed share of connected ad spend.

Integrations and setup

BidX connects to the Amazon Advertising API and the Selling Partner API, and offers Google Single Sign-On for individual login. One-on-one onboarding is included as a complimentary part of every plan.

BidX pricing: what each plan gives

BidX pricing screenshot
BidX, Pricing

Amazon Search has three tiers: Self Service Platform at 495 € plus a percentage of connected ad spend a month, Managed Platform at 1.995 € plus the same percentage, and Managed Service at 4.995 € plus the same percentage. Amazon DSP has a Self Service Platform at 495 € plus a percentage of ad spend and a Managed Service at 995 € plus a percentage of ad spend. Amazon Marketing Cloud Default Reports is a flat 295 € a month with no ad-spend component. The percentage of ad spend added on top of every Search and DSP tier's base fee is not published.

There is no free plan and no free trial. New customers instead go through a paid three-month proof-of-concept period. All plans run on an annual commitment with monthly payments.

Privacy and security

BidX is the controller within the meaning of the GDPR and other national data protection laws. Support runs through email, chat and a private community on social media.

Who BidX suits

BidX suits Amazon and Walmart sellers who want automated bid management across Sponsored Products, Sponsored Brands and Video, Sponsored Display and DSP in one platform, with complimentary one-on-one onboarding and the option to hand campaign strategy to a Growth Manager on the Managed tiers.

It suits less well anyone who wants a plain, predictable monthly bill, since every tier's base fee is topped up by an undisclosed percentage of ad spend, and anyone unwilling to commit to an annual contract or a paid proof-of-concept period before starting.
