Store Sales measurement eligibility expands via AI modelling

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Store Sales measurement: which connects digital ad investments to offline sales: is expanding eligibility to advertisers of all sizes through AI-modelled, privacy-safe insights. Previously, Store Sales required high traffic volumes and complex data setups; the new eligibility pilot uses Google AI to generate high-fidelity reporting even for accounts that didn't previously meet eligibility requirements.

What changed

Measured testing data: retailers that measure only e-commerce outcomes are severely undercounting Google's total contribution: large omnichannel retailers see a combined online + in-store incremental ROAS of $3.39 vs just $2.27 for e-commerce alone (Measured testing, November 2025).

THE COLLECTIVE PERSPECTIVE

Why it matters for advertisers

For you, this means omnichannel retailers previously excluded from Store Sales should re-evaluate eligibility under the new AI-modelled approach. Particularly relevant for mid-tier omnichannel brands where the previous traffic-volume floor was the gating constraint.
