Measure performance

This feature is available to retailers only.

Beta refers to pre-release features or products that are under active development and available for users to try out.

Ads Manager shows ad metrics and promotion metrics for your sponsored listing campaigns together in one view. Ad metrics tell you how your sponsored listing is performing and what it costs. Promotion metrics tell you what happened when customers used your promotion. Use both to understand your full return.

The performance chart shows your key metrics over time. Use it to spot trends and unexpected spikes or drops, and to see how ad spend and promotion spend are pacing against your budgets.

If your account includes multiple banners, use the Banner filter at the top of the reporting view to see one banner at a time. Performance is tracked at the individual store level and rolled up to the banner level.
