Inspired shoppers. Inspiring results.
Pinterest is where people find their favorite products—and actually have fun doing it. Inspired shoppers are happier shoppers. Happy shoppers spend and buy more. And they’re more loyal, too.
It’s simple to get started with shopping on Pinterest. Upload your product catalog, then layer on ads to keep growing your audience and sales.
Help people find what they actually love
Shopping on Pinterest is about more than transactions. It’s about discovery. People use Pinterest to refine their taste. Looking for the right thing—even before they have the right words.
Because Pinterest plays such a personal role for shoppers, it makes a bigger impact. In fact, weekly Pinners are 7x more likely to say that Pinterest is the most influential platform in their purchase journey, compared to social media platforms.1
Get results you’ll actually love
Open minds mean bigger baskets. People on Pinterest love to shop and discover products they love. They’re looking for brands they can stick with: 64% say it’s where they go to find a product or service they can trust.2
And when they find something they love, they spend and buy more. Shoppers on Pinterest spend 2x more per month than people on other platforms.3
Shopping campaigns deliver
