Manage ad groups in a shopping campaign

When you first create a shopping campaign, Search Ads 360 automatically creates an ad group that contains one ad and one product group. After you create the campaign, you can edit the settings of the ad group that Search Ads 360 creates.

You can also create additional ad groups if you have a large product inventory. The additional ad groups may help you navigate and find product groups.

What happens if a product ends up in more than one ad group?

If a product is in more than one ad group within the same campaign, the engine uses the bid for the ad group that contains the highest bid for the product.
