Sponsored listings are an advertising solution that help you gain visibility in the Uber Eats app by showing your restaurant in high-traffic locations. Sponsored listings are a second-price auction occurring each time a user opens the app. The winner of the auction appears as a sponsored listing to the user.

The restaurant that has the highest bid and is most relevant for the specific user will win the auction, and their ad will become visible in the Uber Eats app. Your relevance to a user is determined by how likely that user is to order from you. For example, a salad restaurant will have a higher relevance score to a user that frequently orders salads versus a burger restaurant.

Pay only when customers click on your ads. Ad spend will be deducted from your store’s payout based on your existing payout schedule.

Your sponsored listing will appear in the home feed and search results. In the home feed, your storefront will be near the top with a label that says ‘Sponsored’.

You can select specific audiences to target. When and where your sponsored listing appears depends on your relevance to that customer and the strength of your bid – or how high it is – compared with the bids of other businesses.

Your sponsored listing campaign will run indefinitely, and you can pause it at any time. Choose a weekly budget from the options provided in Uber Eats Manager – these are calculated based on projected monthly sales. You can also set a custom budget if you prefer. So you don’t exceed your budget, your campaign will be paused if you hit your weekly budget and restart the following week.

To run a sponsored listing, you need to choose how much you’re willing to pay for a click. This is called your ‘bid’. When and where your sponsored listing appears depends on the strength of your bid – or how high it is – compared with the bids of other businesses. You can choose between automatic – the recommended bid method – or custom bids. By choosing automatic bidding, your bid will be adjusted over time to make sure it’s competitive while keeping your budget in mind.

It may take up to 48 hours for your ad to go live.
