Meta is positioning itself in the rapidly expanding retail media market, projected to reach $62 billion. The company has launched new tools, including a data-collecting API for online marketplaces, to help retailers measure ad effectiveness, particularly in sales conversions. By reducing barriers for ad placement on its platform, Meta hopes to retain and attract advertisers who might migrate to other platforms. Additionally, it has introduced product-level reporting and impression logs to provide advertisers with deeper insights into their advertising success.
One of Meta's most significant new products is an API that allows online marketplaces that sell products from third parties to run ads on Meta. This API collects data that lets both the marketplace and brand know whether those ads drove sales, proving the effectiveness of retail media advertising.
As retail media sellers build tools to place ads off their owned sites, Meta is at risk of losing ad dollars unless they enhance their retail media offerings.
