Immersive map view videos now appearing inside Google PPC ads
Anthony Higman has spotted Google integrating immersive map view videos into PPC ad units. The functionality builds on a setting that appeared in Location Manager earlier in the year, where advertisers were pre-opted into the feature.

What changed
Higman has shared a screenshot of the underlying setting in his post.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means location-based advertisers: particularly multi-location retailers, restaurants, hospitality, and home services: should review their Location Manager settings to confirm whether the feature is enabled on their account and whether the resulting ad presentation aligns with brand guidelines.
