Inspire Buyers Before They Even Search

Pinterest is where people go to plan, weddings, renovations, wardrobes, holidays, recipes, and purchases. Unlike other social platforms, Pinterest users are actively looking for ideas and products to buy. That makes it one of the highest-intent social advertising platforms available, with CPCs consistently lower than Meta for visual product categories.

What Pinterest Ads Management Involves

Pinterest isn't a social network, it's a visual search and discovery engine with purchase intent baked in. Over 80% of weekly Pinterest users have discovered a new brand or product on the platform, and the average order value from Pinterest referrals is higher than any other social platform. With Shopping Pins, catalogue integration, search ads, and AI-powered Performance+ campaigns, Pinterest offers a unique advertising channel for visually-driven brands in fashion, home, beauty, food, wedding, travel, and e-commerce.

Standard & Video Pins

Promoted Pins appear natively in search results, home feeds, and related Pins, looking identical to organic content. Standard image Pins, Video Pins with autoplay, Carousel Pins with multiple images, and Idea Pins for multi-page storytelling. All designed to inspire action, not interrupt browsing.

Shopping Pins & Catalogue Ads

Product catalogue integration that turns your entire product feed into shoppable Pins. Each Pin shows price, availability, and links directly to your product page. For e-commerce brands, Pinterest Shopping delivers high-intent traffic from users who are actively planning purchases.

Pinterest Search Ads

Pinterest is a search engine as much as a social platform. Users search for "kitchen renovation ideas," "wedding dresses," "best running shoes", and your ads can appear directly in those search results. Keyword targeting on Pinterest captures planning-stage intent that other platforms miss entirely.

Performance+ Campaigns

Pinterest's AI-driven campaign type that automates targeting, bidding, and creative optimisation. Similar in concept to Meta's Advantage+ and Google's Performance Max, we configure inputs, audience signals, and brand constraints while the AI handles delivery optimisation.

Visual Search & Lens

Pinterest Lens lets users photograph a product or room and find similar Pins and shoppable products. Your catalogue Pins can surface through visual search, meaning someone can photograph a dress they like and discover your similar product for sale. Visual commerce at its most intuitive.

Conversion Tracking & API

Pinterest Tag for browser-based tracking plus Conversions API for server-side event data. We implement both for accurate attribution, critical as browser-based tracking becomes less reliable. Pinterest's attribution window captures the long consideration cycles typical of planning-stage purchases.

How We Work

Our Approach to Pinterest Ads

Pinterest rewards beautiful, useful, inspirational content. Our approach is built around that principle.

1

Category & Audience Assessment

Pinterest performs exceptionally well for certain categories, home, fashion, beauty, food, wedding, travel, DIY, and visual products. We assess whether your brand fits Pinterest's audience and whether the advertising opportunity justifies investment. If it does, we map the keyword landscape and competitive activity on the platform.

2

Creative & Catalogue Setup

Pinterest creative needs to be visually stunning, vertical (2:3 ratio), and styled to blend with organic content. We develop Pin creative, set up product catalogue feeds for Shopping Pins, build Idea Pins for brand storytelling, and create Video Pins for engagement. Every asset designed for the aspirational, planning mindset of Pinterest users.

Campaign Architecture

Keyword-targeted search campaigns for intent capture. Interest and audience-targeted campaigns for discovery. Shopping campaigns with product feed integration. Performance+ for AI-driven reach. Retargeting audiences from Pin engagement and website visits. Pinterest Tag and Conversions API for accurate tracking.

4

Performance & Long-Tail Value

Pinterest content has an exceptionally long shelf life compared to other social platforms, a promoted Pin can continue driving traffic for months after the campaign ends. We track both immediate conversions and long-tail attribution through Gorilla Reports, giving you the true picture of Pinterest's contribution to revenue.

Pinterest Ads Under the Microscope

Why Pinterest is the most undervalued advertising platform for visual and product-led brands.

Planning Intent, Why Pinterest Users Are Ready to Buy

+
Pinterest is fundamentally different from every other social platform because users come with planning intent. They're not scrolling to kill time, they're actively searching for ideas, products, and inspiration for things they intend to do or buy. Wedding dresses, kitchen renovations, holiday destinations, outfit ideas, recipes for dinner parties. This intent translates directly into advertising performance: Pinterest users are further down the purchase funnel before they ever see your ad. The average order value from Pinterest referrals is higher than Facebook, Instagram, or TikTok because the audience is already in buying mode. For visually-driven brands, this intent advantage makes Pinterest one of the most cost-effective paid channels available.

The Long Shelf Life, Content That Keeps Working

+
On Meta, an ad stops delivering the moment you pause the campaign. On Pinterest, promoted Pins continue appearing in search results and related Pins long after the paid promotion ends, because Pinterest indexes them like a search engine. A well-crafted Pin can drive organic traffic for months or even years after the initial paid promotion. This gives Pinterest ads a compounding value that no other social platform offers. We optimise Pin titles, descriptions, and boards with SEO keywords so your promoted content continues working organically, effectively turning your paid investment into a long-term content asset that keeps driving traffic and sales.

Pinterest Shopping, The Visual Commerce Opportunity

+
Pinterest's Shopping features turn the entire platform into a product discovery engine. Your product catalogue becomes a library of shoppable Pins, each with price, availability, and a direct link to purchase. Collection Pins showcase curated product groupings. Visual search through Pinterest Lens lets users photograph products and find similar items in your catalogue. For e-commerce brands in fashion, home, beauty, and lifestyle, Pinterest Shopping delivers genuinely incremental revenue, reaching users in planning mode who aren't being captured by Google Shopping or Meta product ads.

Creative That Works, Inspiration Over Interruption

+
Pinterest users reject hard-sell advertising more aggressively than any other platform's audience. The content that performs is aspirational, useful, and beautifully presented, lifestyle imagery, styled product photography, step-by-step tutorials, and mood boards that users actually want to save to their own boards. The best Pinterest ads don't look like ads at all, they look like the organic content users came to the platform to find. We develop creative specifically for Pinterest's aesthetic, vertical 2:3 images, clean text overlays, lifestyle context, and Pin titles optimised with the keywords your audience is searching for. When a promoted Pin gets saved to a user's board, that's free ongoing exposure every time they or their followers revisit that board.
