The platform
How Walmart Connect campaigns are built.
Walmart Connect is the advertising business of Walmart. It sells retail media: ads on Walmart's own sites and apps, targeted with Walmart shopper data.
In the platform's own terms
- Retail media ads appear in search results and on item pages on the retailer's own properties.
- Campaigns are organised around items from the advertiser's catalogue, with keywords or placements attached.
- Results are read against sales on the same retailer. That is what separates retail media from general display advertising.
- Every retail network names its fields differently, so reporting across retailers needs one common schema.
Official reference: Walmart Connect.
Why retail media reporting needs a model of its own.
Retail media budgets often cover many items and more than one retailer. Each network names its fields differently, and attribution windows differ, so the same ratio can mean slightly different things. A shared schema keeps Walmart Connect results comparable with Amazon and the rest.
Walmart Connect reporting next to your sales data.
Walmart Connect is one of the sources we build connectors for. We pull its reports on a schedule, clean them, map them to the same schema as your other retail media sources and load them into BigQuery or PostgreSQL in your account. Each pipeline is built per engagement. See advertising data pipelines (ETL) and the article What is retail media advertising?.

Questions on Walmart Connect advertising.
Vexio works on Walmart Connect end to end: item-based campaign build, retail media reporting, automation and ongoing optimisation support. We scope the parts you need in a first conversation. Some teams only want the reporting pipeline, and that is a valid engagement too.
Walmart Connect offers an API for managing campaigns and pulling reports. Vexio builds the connector that requests reports, cleans them and loads them into your warehouse. Exactly what is available depends on the ad products and API access your account has, which we confirm while scoping.
Retail media advertising is advertising sold on a retailer's own websites and apps, targeted with the retailer's shopper data. Walmart Connect and Amazon Ads are examples. Results are read against that retailer's sales. Our guide, what is retail media advertising, covers formats and measurement.
Yes. We map each source to a shared schema in your warehouse, so spend, sales and ratios are defined the same way across retailers. Attribution windows still differ between networks, and we document those differences instead of hiding them. See advertising data pipelines (ETL).
