Sponsored Listing Campaigns allow you to promote products from the catalog. You can easily set one up in both the marketplace and self-service dashboards by clicking the “Create Campaign” button and choosing “Sponsored listings.”
Create campaigns individually using the steps below, or use Bulk Create to create bidding campaigns from a spreadsheet.

How It Works

1

Choose Your Products

First, you select the products you want to promote from your catalog. You can search or browse products by name or category and add as many as needed. If you have many products, you can use the “Bulk Select” button to upload a CSV file with your product IDs to add them all at once.

Launch Campaign Settings

Before launching, fill out the final details. Give your campaign a name (only visible to you and other internal users). Set how long the campaign should run, either by picking an end date or letting it run continuously until you stop it. Choose your maximum daily, weekly, or monthly budget. You can also set a location for targeting, either automatically or manually. Once done, press launch to make your campaign active. Check the Campaign Configuration and Campaign Targeting sections for more information.
