What You Can Do with This Integration
Sync segments like abandoned cart users, high-value customers, or new signups to Google Ads.
Keep audience lists automatically up to date.
Power personalized retargeting and lookalike campaigns in Google Ads.
Requirements
A Google Ads account with Customer Match enabled.
Admin access to both your marketing platform and your Google Ads account.
Your Google Ads account must have a minimum ad spend history to use Customer Match (Google's requirement).

Step 2. Map Segments to Google Ads Lists

Select the Source Segment you want to sync to Google Ads list

Under the Destination section
Enter the User List ID
For example, if your list resource name is 'customers/2638025854/userLists/8989315908', the list id is 8989315908
Toggle ON the Remove All Existing Users if you want only the selected segment to sync as users and remove any existing users in the Google Ads list

Click on Save Configuration
Once saved, you can enable the data flow by toggle at the top

To create more Segment and Google Ads List mappings:
