    Limited time? Let Sponsored Max – Store manage your entire store.
    More hands-on? Use Sponsored Max – Product and manually select specific products to promote
  • Select the Best Bidding Type

Best Practices to Maximize Campaign Results
Once your campaigns are live, here’s how to make the most of Sponsored Max:

  • Allow a 7-Day Learning Phase
    Let the algorithm optimize performance before making edits.
  • Give It Time to Learn
    Avoid early changes that can reset progress and delay optimization.
  • Maintain a Stable Budget
    Sufficient, continuous spend ensures steady visibility and reach.
  • Optimize Based on Data
    After the learning phase, adjust bids, product selection, or budget allocation based on insights.

📌 Reminder: Products can’t be promoted under both Sponsored Discovery and Sponsored Max – Store at the same time. For overlapping items in Sponsored Max – Store and Product, the system will prioritize Product.
