Summary

In the Campaign Management Tool for Display Ads, a new Store visit tracking (*) feature has been added. With this enhancement, advertisers can configure Store visit tracking settings and obtain reports directly within the Campaign Management Tool.
After the Schedule, customers who have Display Ads accounts and meet the usage requirements—such as owning physical stores eligible for store visit determination—will be able to use Store visit tracking through the Campaign Management Tool.

* What is Store Visit Tracking?
This feature measures advertising effectiveness for users who visit physical stores by utilizing location data from LY Ads and store visit tracing services provided by SoftBank. Please refer to the following for an overview of the feature.

Store Visit Tracking supports two different measurement methods: the “Yahoo! JAPAN method” and the “SoftBank method.” Each method has different usage requirements and configurable ranges within the Campaign Management Tool. For details, please refer to this document.
