Instacart Ads Click Credit Program: Apply to Participate

Our newly expanded Click Credit program offers a $100 credit towards the cost of a new advertising campaign, open to brands who have not yet advertised on Instacart.
Instacart Ads uses a cost-per-click (CPC) pricing model, so advertisers only pay when consumers click on one of their Featured Products ads. This program credits eligible advertiser accounts with $100 dollars’ worth of clicks.
Does it work?
The short but emphatic answer is yes! Instacart Ads includes a full product suite, anchored by our Featured Product offering, and has helped brands of all sizes grow product sales on Instacart marketplace, drive brand awareness, and increase category share.
“Instacart was already on my radar to try out, but the click credit just made it a no-brainer for me…I’m really happy with the results we’re seeing so far.”
– Andrew Munguia, Director of Sales & Marketing at Sabor Mexicano.
By partnering with Instacart, brands can get in front of consumers when and where they’re searching for similar products on the leading online grocery platform in North America. Instacart partners with more than 600 beloved national, regional and local retailers, including unique brand names, to deliver from nearly 55,000 stores across more than 5,500 cities in North America.
“The click credit program made things easy for us to get started with our campaign quickly. With this fast paced world we live in, I wish more partners would adopt something similar.”
– Mike Hart, Director of Sales at Charleston Coffee Roasters
