Perfect as you can see there are three different options to choose from. There is the customer list option meaning we can upload emails phone numbers Facebook user IDs our mobile advertiser IDs to Facebook. Then there is the option Web site traffic meaning we can create a list of people who visit your website or view specific web pages. This is something we'll focus on later down the road. This option or this feature is also referred to as retargeting or remarketing. And then you can even create a list of people who have taken a specific action in your app or game. In this video we will focus on the customer list option. So just go ahead and click on this tap. And again three options so we can choose from. We can either upload a file so upload a data file that contains e-mails phone numbers Facebook user IDs or mobile advertising or IDs there and then there's the option to copy and paste her custom list and you can import even your customer data from MailChimp.

So what you want to upload what we have re-emitted customers do you have e-mails do you have data about your users if you're just basically running an app so you can upload your app users. Do you have the phone numbers of your customers or just mobile advertiser IDs. So and 90 percent of the cases you'll most likely upload the e-mails. That's what you probably have from your customers.
