# How to activate the Amazon Retail Purchases dataset in Amazon

## Learn how to activate the Amazon Retail Purchases dataset for the Customer Lifetime Value (CLTV) Dashboard in AMC

The Customer Lifetime Value (CLTV) dashboard, which uses a 5-year lookback window, relies on a paid dataset in Amazon Marketing Cloud (AMC) called “Amazon Retail Purchases.”

You’ll need to subscribe to this dataset before activating the CLTV dashboard. Follow the steps below to get started:

**Step 1: Log in to Amazon Ads**  
Go to [advertising.amazon.com](http://advertising.amazon.com/) and sign in to your account.

**Step 2: Access Amazon Marketing Cloud**  
From the left-hand navigation panel, select “Measurement & Reporting” and then click “Amazon Marketing Cloud.”

**Step 3: Open the Paid Features Tab**  
In the AMC interface, navigate to the “Paid Features (Beta)” tab. You’ll find the Amazon Retail Purchases dataset listed there.

**Step 4: Start a Free Trial (Optional)**  
Click “Get a 60-day free trial” to instantly activate a trial of the dataset for 60 days.

**Step 5: Subscribe Without a Trial**  
If you prefer to subscribe directly, click “See Options” on the top right corner of the dataset card.

**Step 6: Choose a Billing Source**  
On the subscription activation page, select the Billing Source — the Ads account that will be billed for the dataset.![](https://help.intentwise.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-06-2025-08-03-34-9526-AM.png?width=688&height=375&name=image-png-Nov-06-2025-08-03-34-9526-AM.png)

**Step 7: Accept Terms and Subscribe**

**Step 8: Verify Subscription Status**  
Amazon typically takes up to one day to activate your subscription. Once active, you can review your subscriptions and their statuses under “Your Subscriptions” within the Paid Datasets tab.
