Line Items

• A line item holds promoted products to advertise on any single retailer for all our campaign types

• For Open Auction campaigns: Line items have bid settings, start & end dates, and optional budgeting & pacing controls

• For Preferred Deals campaigns: Line items have start & end dates, required budget & pacing controls and optional caping controls.

• Budgets may additionally be controlled at the campaign level

Promoted Products

• Line items can and should feature multiple products. You do not need a new line item for each product you want to promote.

• Ensure your line items under the same campaign do NOT feature the same products. Line items with overlapping products under the same campaign will scale much slower and can cause you to not meet your spend goals.
