I can't get Amazon affiliate links to work on idea pins

I know Amazon is an approved affiliate for idea pins, but I'm getting an error message that says "Sorry, this site doesn't let you save ideas to Pinterest."

 

Anyone else have this problem and how do I fix it?

If I get my affiliate link from my phone, I get that error. If I get them from desktop from the affiliate dashboard, they work. Annoying, but doable! Hope that works for you as well.

Oh wow - you just saved my day THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pinterest needs to get these quirks fixed b/c making the idea pins they so desperately want is taking forever this way!  Not complaining because we can use affiliate links - but how are we supposed to know these tricks?

Anyway - Alisa Meredith saves the day again (as you have many times when listening to your podcasts!)

Has anyone tried to use bitly to convert your affiliate Amazon links? That could work too.
