Bid by the hour

Put more of your spend in the hours that sell.

Each cell runs from -99% to +300% of your base bid.

Your daily budget stays as it is. Only keyword and target bids move.

Built for real accounts

Bid changes come from your data. Thin data keeps your base bid.

  • 8-hour or 4-hour blocks

    Start with 4-hour blocks. Hourly blocks split your data 168 ways.

  • Weekdays and weekends

    Use one pattern every day, or split Monday to Friday from the weekend.

  • Low data keeps your base bid

    A block with too few clicks stays at 0% and sends your base bid.

  • Your profile time zone

    Hours follow your profile time zone, for example Pacific for a US profile.

You stay in control

Stop changing bids by hand. Keep the final say.

Set the schedule once. AdLabs sends the new bids to Amazon at the start of each hour.

Change any suggested cell before you save. Reset to suggested brings it back.

Pick the campaigns. Each campaign has one schedule.

Verify before activating: data confidence, block breakouts, brand vs non-brand and date range.

Dayparting Analyzer create step: schedule name, three demo campaigns checked and the Create Schedule & Assign 3 Campaigns button, next to a Verify before activating checklist. Example data.
Works with Bid Optimizer

Keep the bids you already set. Dayparting adds the hour on top.

You or Bid Optimizer set the base bid. Dayparting applies the hour's change on top.

Your base bid stays in AdLabs. Change a bid in AdLabs and it becomes the new base bid.

Pause the schedule and AdLabs sends your base bids back.

Example bid math: base bid $1.00, +30% sends $1.30, -40% sends $0.60. Pause the schedule and base bids come back. Example data.

FAQ

Answers before you start. Amazon PPC dayparting FAQ.

Updated Nov 2026

What is Amazon PPC dayparting?

Amazon PPC dayparting means changing your ad bids by hour of day and day of week. You bid up in the hours that convert and bid down in the hours that do not. AdLabs reads your hourly Amazon data and suggests a bid change for each block of the week. You edit it, pick the campaigns and turn it on. Read the full dayparting guide.

How does AdLabs build a dayparting schedule?

Go to Optimize > Dayparting, choose Create New Schedule, then Use the Dayparting Analyzer. By default it reads up to the last 30 days of hourly data and compares each block's revenue per click with your average. Blocks with too few clicks keep your base bid. You edit any cell, pick the campaigns and create the schedule.

What time zone does Amazon PPC dayparting use?

Your profile time zone, for example Pacific time for a US profile. It is not your local time, and it is the same for every campaign on the profile.

Does dayparting work with Bid Optimizer?

Yes. Bid Optimizer sets the base bid, and dayparting applies the hour's change on top. While dayparting is on, make bid changes in AdLabs: changes made outside AdLabs are overwritten.

Is there a free Amazon dayparting calculator?

Yes. The free Dayparting Calculator runs in your browser. Upload your Sponsored Products hourly campaign reports as CSV or Excel, and it suggests bid changes by hour and day that you can export as CSV.
