Walmart made it easy for sellers to create, monitor and manage campaigns through their easy-to-use platform called the Walmart Ad Center Performance Dashboards - here's how they can track their performance.

The Walmart marketplace hosts thousands of sellers today compared to the millions on Amazon - this means significantly less competition to deal with. Still, measuring data is critical to their success. Data empowers merchants to stay ahead of both their current and future competitors.
Tracking data and using metrics to encourage returning and new customers this early on will give brands a major competitive advantage over the majority once the Walmart marketplace becomes more popular.
The likelihood of customers buying your product depends on product ranking, Buy Box placement, product reviews, and seller ratings. All of these factors are heavily shaped by the seller account metrics. This guide will help you track and apply data on the marketplace for better growth.
Walmart Ad Center Performance Dashboards
Your performance dashboards can be found within the Walmart Ad Center platform. Each dashboard is separated based on which campaign the seller is tracking. KPI and metrics such as impressions, clicks, and conversion rates, will all be featured in each campaign dashboard.

Alerts and Recommendations
The alerts feature will appear with a recommended action to improve your campaign performance. This is activated once a campaign has been live for 2 weeks and is refreshed daily. If your campaign has alerts, a badge will appear in the top right corner of your dashboard near the icon.
| Alert | Explanation | Recommendation |
Budget | Campaign will stop delivering ads anytime now | The budget is less than $5 | Increase daily budget to continue delivering ads |
| Campaign is running out of total budget | Total budget is spent mid-way the duration of the campaign | Increase daily budget to continue delivering ads |
| Increase the daily budget of your campaign | Daily budget is nearly spent | Increase daily budget to continue delivering ads |
| Utilize your campaign total budget by increasing your daily budget | Daily budget is too low to spend for the remaining campaign period | Increase daily budget to reach total budget goal |
Bid | Campaign running behind daily target | Daily spend is too low compared to daily budget; ads may not deliver as often | Increase bids or add more items and keywords to show ads more often |
Performance Drop | Campaign spend dropped | Spend has dropped significantly compared to last 7 days | Check item and keyword status or increase bids |
| Campaign impressions dropped | Impressions dropped significantly compared to the last 7 days | Check item and keyword status or increase bids |
