Advantage+ & catalog ads

Dynamic product ads and Advantage+ that sell your products

For online stores, Meta's Advantage+ shopping campaigns and catalog ads can show the right products to the right people automatically. We feed them a clean catalog, strong creative and accurate purchase data.

In short: Dynamic product ads, now called Facebook catalog ads, show products from your Meta catalog to the people most likely to buy them. Advantage+ shopping campaigns are Meta's automated sales campaigns for ecommerce. Web Zodiac manages the catalog, creative, purchase tracking and budgets for both.

What are dynamic product ads?

Dynamic product ads, now called Advantage+ catalog ads, automatically show products from your catalog to the people most likely to buy them. Instead of creating an ad for each product, you create one template. Meta fills it with the right product image, name and price for each person, based on what they viewed, added to cart or are likely to want.

What is Advantage+ shopping?

Advantage+ shopping campaigns, now part of Meta's Advantage+ sales campaigns, are automated sales campaigns for ecommerce. You give Meta your budget, creative, catalog and conversion goal, and its AI handles targeting, placements and budget across new and existing customers in one campaign. They work best with strong purchase tracking and plenty of creative.

Advantage+ vs manual campaigns

Most stores we work with run both: Advantage+ for scale and a smaller manual campaign for testing.

How to set up Facebook dynamic product ads

  1. Create a catalog in Commerce Manager, or connect it from Shopify or WooCommerce.
  2. Connect the Meta Pixel and Conversions API with ViewContent, AddToCart and Purchase events that include product IDs matching the catalog.
  3. Check the match rate between event product IDs and catalog items.
  4. Create product sets, such as best sellers or a category.
  5. Launch a sales campaign using the catalog, with a template that includes price, offers or reviews.

Advantage+ best practices

  • Fix purchase tracking and catalog matching first.
  • Feed it many distinct creative angles, including video and UGC.
  • Use catalog creative and standard creative together.
  • Set a budget large enough for steady daily purchases.
  • Avoid frequent edits that reset learning.
  • Keep product data accurate: price, availability and images.

Retargeting with catalog ads

Catalog ads are the strongest form of retargeting for stores: someone who viewed a product sees that exact product, or similar ones, a few hours later. For a full view of paid growth for stores, see Facebook ads for ecommerce.
