What are Dynamic Product Ads?
Dynamic Product Ads (DPA) are a type of ad that uses dynamic content, and are used primarily on platforms such as Facebook and Instagram. These ads display products that are automatically tailored and updated depending on the individual user's behaviour. DPA allows the advertiser to show products that a user has shown interest in, or products similar to those viewed, making the ads more relevant and personalised.
How do Dynamic Product Ads work?
When a user visits a webshop and views specific products, the Facebook Pixel collects data about that user's behaviour on the site. After the visit, the ads can automatically display the specific products the user looked at, or related products, based on their browsing history. This makes it possible to target ads to the people most likely to purchase, based on their previous interactions with the webshop.

Why work with Dynamic Product Ads?
Dynamic Product Ads are extremely effective for e-commerce businesses, as they make ads highly relevant to the individual user. By showing users products they have shown interest in, or related products, you can significantly improve your conversion rate. Since DPAs are personalised, they are a very powerful tool for remarketing and one of the best ways to increase sales.
How to get started with Dynamic Product Ads
- Set up Facebook Pixel: You need to have the Facebook Pixel installed on your website in order to track user interactions with your products.
- Create and upload a Product Feed: You need to upload your product feed to Facebook. This feed contains information about your products such as price, images, descriptions, etc.
- Create DPA campaigns: In Facebook Ads Manager you can create campaigns that use the data collected via the Pixel and your product feed. Facebook automatically generates the ads based on what has been shown to users.
