What are product listing ads?
Product listing ads are a standalone product ad format that works with an advertiser’s Google Merchant Center account to feature rich product information directly in the ad, such as the product image, title, price, and merchant name.
Product listing ads use your existing Merchant Center product feed, creating ads for the products you want to promote in a dynamic way.

P.S.
This will only work if you have a Google Merchant account.
