When to design catalog ad images
Stronger Meta catalog ads
Upgrade product photos before you launch dynamic catalog campaigns instead of the same white packshot as every competitor.
Catalog ad templates
You want one layout for brand, price, and product on catalog images. Approve a template here, then apply it to the sample.
Advantage+ catalog ads
Prepare catalog photos before Advantage+ catalog or Advantage+ Sales campaigns go live.
Collection ads and Meta Shops
Collection ads read the product image from the catalog, so a designed feed photo shows there too.
Replacing an old feed
Swap the source in Commerce Manager instead of adding a second catalog with the same IDs.
Meta catalog ads from a product feed XML: template, photo, campaign
Meta catalog ads (the format many teams still call Dynamic Product Ads) pull title, price, availability, and image from the catalog XML. Catalog photo quality is what shoppers see in dynamic ads and Meta Shops. Collection ads read the image from the catalog, so a designed feed photo shows there too.
This page needs no signup. Paste your public feed URL, design up to 10 photos at Meta sizes, then get an XML URL with every product for Commerce Manager. Undesigned rows keep their original image_link. Prices and product IDs do not change.
A catalog ad template here is a shared look for the products you select: brand treatment at 1080×1080 or 1080×1350. After you approve it, we update those photos inside the feed. In Commerce Manager, replace the data source with the new URL. Do not add a second source with the same IDs.
Advantage+ catalog and Advantage+ Sales campaigns use catalog images. Improving the photo in the feed is what those campaigns show, without rebuilding every ad by hand. To design the rest of the catalog, continue at /ui.
Meta catalog ads and product feed XML FAQs
What are Meta catalog ads?
Ads built from a product catalog. Title, price, availability, and image come from the Commerce Manager feed, including dynamic campaigns and Advantage+ catalog.
Is this for catalog ad templates?
Yes in the sense of a shared image template for selected products inside the feed XML. The tool designs image_link. It does not build layer templates inside Ads Manager.
Do designed photos work with Collection ads?
Yes, because Collection ads read the product image from the catalog.
Do they work with Advantage+ catalog ads?
Yes if the campaign uses this catalog as its source. The new feed photo is what the campaign shows.
Which feed format is supported?
A public Meta/Facebook catalog XML (RSS item or Atom). Paste the public file URL.
Do I need a Meta account to try it?
Not to run the design flow. You only need Commerce Manager when you replace the feed URL.
Do prices or IDs change?
No. Only image links on designed products are updated. Other products keep their original photos.
Which sizes can I use?
1080×1080 square or 1080×1350 portrait.
How do I add the URL in Meta?
Download the XML and keep the file. The hosted URL on this page is deleted after 1 hour. In Commerce Manager, replace the existing feed source. Do not add a second catalog.
How long does the XML URL stay online?
One hour, then it is deleted. There is no account on this page, so we cannot host the feed permanently. Download the file. For a lasting feed URL, continue in Adly.
Do I need to sign up?
No to try the tool for up to 10 photos. Continue in Adly to design the remaining catalog products.
Does this work for Google Shopping?
The format follows Meta catalogs. Use it for Facebook and Instagram shopping ads, not as a Google Merchant Center feed.
What if the URL fails to load?
It must be public HTTPS. Localhost, private IPs, and login walls cannot be fetched.
What is the difference between Adly and Confect.io?
Both target catalog-ad design. Confect.io is a specialist editor with design rules, video catalog ads, and pricing from $299. Adly designs the product photo inside the catalog XML feed. This page is free for up to 10 photos. Solo at $49 includes Meta Feed Catalog Studio.
How much cheaper is paid Adly than Confect?
Adly Solo is $49/month and includes Meta Feed Catalog Studio. Confect Pro is published at $499/month, about 10× higher. Confect Local is $299/month, about 6× higher than Solo.
