Bangalore is Swiggy's HQ and strongest Instamart market. Test campaigns here first before scaling to other cities.
Products with active discounts see 2–3x higher CTR. Pair sponsored listings with 10–15% off or buy-1-get-1 offers.
Instamart order peaks: 8–11 AM (morning grocery), 5–8 PM (evening snacks), and weekends. Concentrate ad spend during these windows.
Participate in Swiggy's platform-wide events (Big Savings Days, Festival Sales). These drive 3–5x normal traffic to Instamart.
Ensure product titles, images, and descriptions are optimized before running ads. Poor listings waste ad budget.
