What changed

The system uses first-party signals from detail pages, Brand Stores, and campaign data to engage shoppers at key decision moments. Campaigns are automatically enrolled without additional setup. As prompts move to GA, Amazon will begin charging for them under CPC bidding and billing. Advertisers can pause individual prompts via the Ads Console.
