Book Online buttons extend into Search and Performance Max

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Reserve with Google appointment links can now appear as Book Online actions in eligible Search and Performance Max ads, using the same partner connection already published for local surfaces. The advertiser pays for the ad click, while an encrypted token links the visit to a booking and the “Appointments booked” conversion must be included in campaign goals for bidding; healthcare is excluded from the current setup.
