FAQ About Facebook CPAS

About Facebook CPAS

Facebook Ads is a paid feature from Meta so you can advertise products using available target audiences and your ads will appear on Facebook, Instagram and Audience Network networks. In Facebook Ads, you can only create ads that can only be directed to your business website, Facebook or Instagram account. Products that you have on Tokopedia cannot be advertised using Facebook Ads.
Facebook Collaborative Ads or Facebook CPAS is part of Facebook Ads where this campaign can use products from your shop on Tokopedia as a catalog to advertise. CPAS also has the advantage where we can see how many of our products are viewed, added to cart, and purchased in real time from your Facebook Ads Manager dashboard.

About CPAS Ads Settings

Yes, when running a Facebook CPAS campaign, there are many variables that determine the success of the campaign's performance. You can learn more about it through the Best Practices Playbook guide to optimize the performance of your Facebook CPAS campaign.
You can contact Facebook's help center page because this problem occurs on Facebook.
No, all CPAS catalogs use the same pixel. Choose "tokopedia.com" as your pixel when setting up ads.
To maintain the privacy of all Tokopedia users, sharing custom audiences is not possible. You can only use audiences that Tokopedia has shared through the Facebook dashboard, namely audiences who have interacted with your products and store on Tokopedia.
Access to the Extended Audience Targeting feature can only be used by sellers who meet the requirements. More information can be obtained from the Account Manager, Relationship Manager, or Tokopedia Care.
No, since 2021, Facebook no longer provides privacy data from the Meta pixel on its platform. Tokopedia also cannot share this data because it is related to user data security. However, you can always choose Retargeting when creating ads so that your ads can always target sellers who have viewed your products.
You can set CPC under the "Cost Control" option. However, we do not recommend this method because CPAS uses conversion events for optimization, not link clicks. In addition, if CPC is set too low, the ad will not perform well.
If you have questions about campaign performance, the Account Manager or Relationship Manager can contact Facebook's help center for a solution. However, if you have problems connecting the product catalog through Facebook CPAS on the Tokopedia Seller page, you can contact the Account Manager, Relationship Manager, or Tokopedia Care for further assistance.
