The platform is introducing new tools for brands to include AR product catalogs in ads that will automatically show relevant products to people based on their interests. New technologies Facebook said it is investing in immersive technologies like augmented reality and artificial intelligence that will be the foundation for the way customers shop online going forward. New visual discovery tools on Instagra will help shoppers find new products, and AR experiences help shoppers visualize items before buying. Personalising the Shopping Journey With Ads Facebook in a press release said it wants to provide a shopping experience that is as personalized as a user’s News Feed.

For example, Facebook is testing the ability for businesses to send shoppers to where they are most likely to make a purchase based on their shopping behaviour, such as curated products that a usermight be interested in from a Shop or a business’ website. In the future, Facebook said it will explore ways to help brands further personalize their Shops ads by providing special offers or promotions to select shoppers.
