Hotel callouts is an extension type that allows partners to include additional information (up to 2 lines of customizable text) in their ad inside the hotel booking module. Here’s what it looks like:
How it works
You can create callouts at the account, campaign, and ad group levels. Ad group callouts will override campaign callouts, and campaign callouts will override account callouts.
Options and parameters
- The number of callouts displayed may be 2, 1, or 0 depending on the amount of room available.
- In order to display 2 callouts, you must create 2 separate callouts with the same language.
- Keep in mind: Callouts are not guaranteed to show with your ad.
- You can rotate among callouts by specifying more than 2 callouts with the same language. The system will randomly choose which callouts to show, and you will be able to view the performance of the different callouts.
- Since callouts are language-specific, you should be sure to add callouts for all of the languages that you want to target.
