This week, Bing Ads announced that a Shopping Campaigns beta will run for a limited number of advertisers, and be extended to all advertisers over the coming months. They are hoping that this new format will make it easier for you to advertise products from Bing Merchant Center and improve the overall management of Product Ads. Also, you will be able to import your Google Shopping Campaigns over to Bing.

Easier Management and More Control of Your Product Ads
- Intuitive tiered structure to organize the products to which you want to bid
