Acquire New Shoppers audience templates help you reach net-new audiences—shoppers who are in-market or browsing relevant categories but have not purchased from your brand yet. These templates prioritize New-to-Brand (NTB) growth as the primary north star, allowing you to scale beyond your existing customer base.

By focusing on shoppers search intent, and Xnurta-exclusive affinity signals, these templates allow you to feed the top of your funnel with high-potential shoppers who are currently unexposed to your brand.
