Publishing Facebook and Instagram Partnership Ads

Updated 

Facebook and Instagram Partnership ads allow advertisers to collaborate with creators, influencers, or other businesses, by running ads using co-branded assets or shared posts. These ads display both your brand and your partner's handle, helping you reach a wider audience with more impactful content.

In this article, we will cover how to create and boost partnership ads directly from Sprinklr using different features.

Limitations of Partnership Ads

While Partnership Ads offer powerful collaboration capabilities, there are some platform and API-related limitations to keep in mind when using them:

  • You cannot create Partnership Ads in Sprinklr using a Partnership Code. The creator must accept the partnership invite from the brand in order to run partnership ads from Sprinklr. For more details, refer to Manage content-level permissions for partnership ads.

  • Currently, you cannot filter partnership ads separately in ads reporting.

  • Due to API limitation, featuring only a single identity or a dynamic identity is not supported. Ads published from Sprinklr will always display both the brand and creator identities in the ad header.

  • On Instagram, archiving your content does not remove the advertiser's ability to boost it, as long as the Allow brand partner to boost toggle remains enabled. However, archived Facebook posts cannot be boosted as partnership ads.

  • Sprinklr currently does not support Placement Asset Customization (PAC) when using existing posts for Partnership Ads.
