Reddit has launched their Meta catalog and Google Shopping ads clone: Dynamic Product Ads.

Very tempted to try these since the forum has taken over Google Search results (part of the licensing deal courtship?).

& there’s this:

Reddit is saying Dynamic Product Ads drove 1.9x greater Return on Ad Spend (ROAS) when compared to conversion objective campaigns, based on the results of testing in Q1.

Reddit is a destination for shopping / product research, why not try to close the loop and turn it into a purchase driver.
