In activating Multi-format delivery, this exciting next product will allow for AR and video to optimise together – a first for the industry.

The new product aims to fundamentally change the way the brands and advertisers think about buying media on Snap, shifting towards a more multi-product approach to drive performance. These improvements will lay the groundwork for a significant evolution in ad-buying perception, behaviour, and performance.

Multi-format delivery ad sets reporting will be broken out by ad format, so that buyers can evaluate the efficiency of each format and how it contributes to overall brand performance.

While the core experience will remain relatively consistent, Snap has reconstructed how formats and various campaign criteria are selected within the purchasing experience to allow for more flexibility for buyers.
