Banner X allows you to customize and use various elements for banners. You can mix and match these elements to create responsive banner X campaigns.
Ad Slot Formats
Banner X can be deployed in a variety of formats due to its flexible nature.
We typically have 3 standard formats we advise to use:
- Banner: Positioned on across the full width of a shoppable area, typically on the top of a relevant page such as above search or category listings.
- Single tile: Positioned in the product grid and covering a single product tile instead of a product listing. Single tiles are great for capturing shopper attention as the natural customer browsing will have attention to product listings.
- Double tile: Positioned in the product grid across two product tiles, creating a larger, more attention grabbing ad unit.

Videos
Advertisers and retailers can upload videos to their banners. These video ads are promotional videos displayed directly on the retailer's website or app.

Call-to-action
A call-to-action (CTA) is clickable text or a button prompting user actions, such as making a purchase or visiting another page. CTAs should be clear, action-oriented, and visually distinct to enhance engagement. For example, "Shop Now" encourages purchases.
