  • Volatility was high in Israel (average absolute month-to-month move: ~30%) versus a much steadier global pattern (~4.7%).

What the selected data shows

  • Overall level: Average cost-per-purchase = 62.62 across 11 months.
  • Highs and lows:
  • High: 124.85 in Aug 2025.
  • Low: 35.82 in Nov 2024.
  • Range: 89.03 between the monthly low and high.
  • Trend: From 66.66 (Oct 2024) to 124.85 (Aug 2025), a +87% increase.
  • Volatility: Large swings month to month (~30% average absolute change), with the biggest jump from Jun→Jul (+85.6%) and steep declines Oct→Nov (-46.3%) and Jan→Feb (-31.6%).

How it compares to the global baseline

  • Baseline average: 49.24 (Oct 2024–Aug 2025), with a narrow range (43.19–53.89).
  • High: 53.89 in Feb 2025.
  • Low: 43.19 in Nov 2024.
  • Change Oct→Aug: -2%.
  • Volatility: ~4.7% average absolute month-to-month change.
  • Relative positioning (Israel vs. baseline):
  • Above market in 7 of 11 months (Oct, Jan, Apr, May, Jun, Jul, Aug).
  • Below average in Nov, Dec, Feb, and Mar.
  • The gap widened markedly in Q3 2025: +122% in Jul and +173% in Aug versus the baseline.

Seasonality and volatility

  • Baseline seasonality: In line with typical holiday dynamics, the global series rises into December (Q4), then trends gradually lower through mid-2025.
  • Israel pattern: Less Q4 pressure (Nov dip, modest Dec rebound), followed by a mid-year build and an outsized summer spike (Jul–Aug). This produces far higher volatility than the global average.

Notable monthly movements

  • Q4 2024: 66.66 (Oct) → 35.82 (Nov) → 41.63 (Dec). While the baseline climbed into Dec, Israel’s costs remained below Oct levels.
  • Early 2025: 55.36 (Jan) → 37.89 (Feb) → 46.04 (Mar) → 61.98 (Apr) → 60.73 (May) → 55.27 (Jun). Choppy but improving into late spring.
  • Summer 2025: 102.61 (Jul) → 124.85 (Aug). A pronounced surge well above the global trend.

Understanding the Data

Insights & analysis of Facebook advertising costs

Facebook advertising costs vary based on many factors including industry, target audience, ad placement, and campaign objectives. In the SaaS & Cloud Platforms industry, Facebook ad costs can be influenced by seasonal trends and market competition. For campaigns targeting Israel, advertisers should consider local market factors and user behavior. Different campaign objectives lead to varying costs based on how Facebook optimizes for your specific goals. The data shown represents median values across multiple campaigns, and individual results may vary based on ad quality, audience targeting, and campaign optimization.

Why we use median instead of average

We use the median CTR because the underlying distribution of click-through rates is highly skewed, with a small share of campaigns achieving extremely high CTRs. These outliers can inflate a simple average, making it less representative of what most advertisers actually experience. By using the median—which sits at the midpoint of all campaigns—we provide a more rigorous and realistic benchmark that reflects the true underlying data model and helps you set attainable performance expectations.

Key Factors Affecting Facebook Ad Costs

  • Competition within your selected industry and audience demographics
  • Ad quality and relevance score – higher quality ads can lower costs
  • Campaign objective and bid strategy
  • Timing and seasonality – costs often increase during holiday periods
  • Ad placement (News Feed, Instagram, Audience Network, etc.)

Note: This data represents industry median values and benchmarks. Your actual costs may vary based on specific targeting, ad creative quality, and campaign optimization.

Potential Advertising Impact

CPM and CPC might rise during Passover as consumers prepare homes and plan meals. Fall holiday cluster may see media consumption fluctuate—consumers often offline during holidays, but prior week advertising demand may peak. Yom HaAtzmaut might spark tourism and leisure engagement. Hanukkah could drive e‑commerce CPMs for toys and electronics.

What's a healthy cost per purchase for ecommerce brands?

It depends on your product price and margins. Most brands aim for $10 to $50. For higher-ticket products, a higher CPA may be acceptable as long as you're maintaining a strong return on ad spend.

How does product price impact CPA benchmarks?

Higher-priced products typically have a higher CPA because people take longer to convert. That's not necessarily a problem if your margin can support it. You should measure CPA in context with AOV and LTV.

Why are my purchase costs going up despite stable ROAS?

Your AOV may be increasing, which helps maintain ROAS even if CPA rises. You could also be facing higher CPMs, lower conversion rates, or creative fatigue.

Should I use manual bidding to control CPA more effectively?

Manual bidding can help if you're struggling to stay within target CPA. It's best used by experienced advertisers who can monitor performance and adjust regularly. It gives more control, but also requires more effort.

How do I scale spend without letting CPA skyrocket?

Increase budget gradually, rotate creative often, and avoid overlapping audiences. Scaling too quickly can lead to audience saturation and rising CPAs.
