What are Sponsored Products?
- Sponsored products ads allow you to promote your products in search result pages and other positions to relevant and targeted customers.
- It helps you stand out from competition and display your best products at the right time in the consumer’s journey.
- Based on the products that you are promoting we match their keywords automatically to the search terms that shoppers are searching for. When a shopper searches using words or terms relevant to your products, your ads can appear along with the other products in the search results or in the category page.
To grow your sales, you need to increase your visibility, this means increasing the number of customers that see your products on Jumia. Sponsored products will help you boost your product’s visibility, and if your products have the best prices and top content, you will increase your sales.
