Yes — several sponsored-products / retail-media platforms do offer CPC reporting for catalog-driven campaigns, though the exact terminology varies by vendor. In many cases, they report CPC at the campaign, ad group, product/SKU, keyword, placement, or retailer level for product catalog ads.

Examples of platforms that commonly support this kind of reporting:

  • Amazon Ads / Sponsored Products – CPC-based reporting is standard, with product-targeting and ASIN-level performance data.
  • Walmart Connect – Sponsored Products campaigns typically include CPC reporting and item-level metrics.
  • Criteo Retail Media – Offers catalog-driven sponsored product campaigns with CPC and performance reporting.
  • Microsoft Advertising / Shopping ads – For product/catalog ads, CPC reporting is available, though not always labeled as “sponsored products.”
  • Kroger Precision Marketing / other retail media networks – Often provide CPC reporting for sponsored catalog units.
  • Commerce Media platforms like Pacvue, Skai, Perpetua, Helium 10, etc. — these usually sit on top of retailer APIs and can aggregate CPC reporting across catalog-driven campaigns.

A couple of caveats:

  • Some platforms report “effective CPC” or “cost per click” even when the buying model is auction-based and catalog-driven.
  • Others may focus more on ROAS, sales, impressions, and ACOS but still expose CPC in reporting exports or APIs.
  • If you mean self-serve sponsored products specifically, most major retail media platforms do have CPC reporting.
  • If you mean guaranteed / fixed-fee catalog sponsorships, CPC reporting may be limited or simulated rather than native.

If you want, I can also give you a short list of platforms by retailer, or help identify which ones support API access to CPC at SKU level.

Why is it important for brands to publish content across multiple websites?

Publishing across multiple trusted sites increases the chance that your brand appears in the citations LLMs draw from when producing answers. Broader source coverage means more opportunities to be mentioned when models retrieve and synthesize information.
