GMV Max is now integrated directly into campaign registration and is a requirement for participation in some campaigns. When your designated product is registered and approved for a platform campaign, you will need to create GMV Max Ads yourself or a GMV Max Ads campaign will automatically be created for you. This integration makes it easier to leverage advertising to maximize your sales and visibility during key promotional periods.

Key Benefits

How it Works

Step 1: Register for a campaign

Go to Seller Center > Marketing > Campaigns.
If the campaign is eligible for GMV Max ads, you'll see a new tag "GMV Max enabled" on the campaign list page. If your shop doesn’t have a GMV Max ads account, you can not register for the campaign until GMV Max account setup is complete.

Step 2: Review terms and confirm

• On the campaign details page, you'll see a section explaining that GMV Max Ads are required for campaign registration.
• Please take note that you will need to keep the GMV Max Ads campaign running through the campaign period to maintain benefits such as platform-funded coupons, product incentives, and campaign exposure.
• You can either create a GMV Max Ads campaign yourself or one will automatically be created for you within 7 days prior to campaign start. To learn more about how GMV Max supports your campaign, click Learn More hyperlink for full details on the three stages of how GMV Max works.

• When confirming registration, the GMV Max Ads campaign information will be shared again. Click the "Register" button to proceed.

Step 3 : Register your product

You’ll go through the standard campaign registration flow to register your products.

• Once you've added all your products to register, click "Sumbit" to proceed.
• Only products that don’t already have a GMV Max campaign will have a GMV Max Ads campaign automatically created within 7 days before the platform campaign begins. It may take up to 3 days for the GMV Max campaigns to be created for your registered products.
• These ads will start running once the platform campaign officially starts.

When you reach this page, it confirms your registration has been submitted. Click “Go to Shop Ads” to continue with manual ad creation.

Step 4: Manage your GMV Max

Go to Seller Center > Marketing > Campaigns > Manage your Campaigns

• Once your products are approved, you will be able to see and manage them under the Sub-campaign's "Campaign products" tab.
• You can either create a GMV Max Ads campaign yourself or one will automatically be created for you within 7 days prior to campaign start.
• Once a GMV Max Ads campaign is created, the updated status will show in the "GMV Max status" column and you can manage it from the Shop Ads page.

Note : All products under platform campaigns must maintain an active GMV Max campaign. If GMV Max is disabled, the product will lose eligibility for platform benefits, including subsidies (vouchers and subsidies) and traffic support.On the Shop Ads Page, you can recognize auto-created campaigns in two ways:

• They’ll display a “Bundle Promotion” tag.
• The campaign name will begin with the prefix “TTS Campaign” (you can rename it at any time).
• There is a maximum number of 400 products per GMV Max Campaign. If there are more than 400 products registered into a campaign, a second "TTS Campaign" GMV Max campaign will be created.

Step 5: Editing Auto-Created Campaigns

You can make edits by clicking expanding "View details" and selecting "Edit campaign"
Editable fields include:

• Add more products to the campaign.
• Adjust ROI targets to better align with your goals.
• Change daily budgets as needed.

Restrictions:

• You can add new creative, but you cannot replace the auto-generated creative.
• Campaign schedules cannot be changed.
