Canvas adverts

Easy to create, full-screen experiences

Create an Advert

Expand your in-feed story with an instant-loading full-screen experience

Canvas enables you to shorten the distance between your message and the customer. It loads instantly, is mobile-optimised and is designed to capture the complete attention of your audience. With Facebook Canvas adverts, people can watch engaging videos and photos, swipe through carousels, tilt to pan and engage with lifestyle images with tagged products – all in a single advert. They won't just view your story, they'll become part of it.

The Canvas full-screen advantage: Go big with your campaigns

Generate intent with adverts in feed

Many of our advert formats offer a News Feed experience that drives discovery and attention – from video and collection, to carousel and slideshow.

Nurture intent with Canvas

When someone clicks on a collection advert, they'll land on Canvas – a full-screen experience that drives engagement and nurtures interest and intent.

Harvest intent on your site or app

Canvas will send people to your website or app, which helps you turn intent into valuable actions downstream.

Facebook's Canvas enabled us to tell a compelling home improvement story outside the confines of a typical News Feed advert. This allows customers to get a complete understanding of Lowe's coordinated style without ever leaving the platform. The experience provides a unique opportunity for the customer to explore the path of inspiration to conversion seamlessly.
