The Custom Product Pages (CPP) and Custom Store Listings (CSL) opportunity

Definition, use cases, and pro tips

Custom Product Pages on the App Store — and Custom Store Listings on Google Play — are now one of the most powerful levers for improving install conversion.

This guide shows how to do it properly: where CPP/CSL variants actually move the needle, how to structure your intent themes, how to map them to ads + organic traffic, and how to operate dozens of variants without breaking your team.

This isn’t the “CPP 101” treatment.

This is a practitioner playbook — from teams already doing it — covering direct + deep linking, Apple Ads & Google App Ads alignment, keyword assignment, and the execution pitfalls that kill uplift.

What’s inside

  • When CPPs/CSLs should be built — not just when you can
  • The “one intent → one CPP/CSL” operating rule
  • How to map each CPP/CSL into Apple Ads / Google App Ads
  • How to avoid keyword cannibalization
  • How to measure CPP uplift vs your default listing
  • How CBS Sports uses CPPs seasonally and team-specific
  • How feature-specific CPPs (e.g. baby name generator) unlock deep-linked conversion

Why this matters now

Apple’s recent introduction of keyword assignment to CPPs (and Google’s already broader controls) moves CPPs/CSLs out of “ad variation extra” territory and into true ASO segmentation.

For UA, this is the closest we’ve ever had to intent-aligned “landing pages inside the store.”

Your default store page is for everyone.

CPPs/CSLs are for someone — and that’s where conversion changes.
