Dynamic Product Ads - API¶

Dynamic Product Ads are feed-based ads that can be shown on a Yahoo Native ad platform. Dynamic Product Ads (DPAs) provide you with a retargeting solution that is personalized to a users’ unique shopping history.

Using Dynamic Product Ads, your retargeted ads will scale to users who have visited your product websites. That means, you can reach new (prospecting) or existing (retargeting) customers, and retarget them with relevant products based on the following:

Site behaviors (i.e., viewing a product, adding a product to the cart, product purchase)
Yahoo Search and Yahoo Mail signals (used for prospecting solutions)

Key Benefits¶

Relevance: Show products from your website to shoppers who have visited your website and viewed your products.
Dynamic Creative: Use your catalog feed to automatically create native ads and save time.
Scale: Rely on Yahoo Ad Tech’s massive reach to connect you to your target audience throughout the path to purchase.
