01
CAPI and profit values
Conversions API lets you send custom data with events. Profit Bid can align purchase value with gross profit so Meta’s delivery favors high-margin products when value optimization is enabled.
02
Creative testing with POAS
A creative with high ROAS may attract discount hunters. POAS by ad set shows which hooks bring profitable buyers — not just cheap clicks.
