Best Pinterest Ads Reporting Tool for Agencies in 2026
Pinterest Ads sits in an awkward spot for most agencies. Your client treats it as a serious revenue channel, but it usually lives in a different tab from Google and Meta, on a different reporting cadence, with its own quirky metrics. So every month you end up exporting Pinterest data by hand, pasting it into a deck, and hoping the client actually opens it.
The right Pinterest ads reporting tool fixes that. It pulls the campaign data automatically, formats it for a non-technical client, and gets it in front of them on schedule - ideally in the one place they already check every day: their inbox.
We built ReportsMate email-first because, after years around agency reporting, the dashboards clients were handed almost never got logged into. The report that lands in the inbox is the one that gets read. This guide compares the tools agencies actually use for Pinterest campaign reporting in 2026, where each one fits, and how to pick honestly.

Key takeaways
- A Pinterest ads reporting tool automates pulling campaign data (impressions, saves, outbound clicks, ROAS) into a branded, client-ready report on a set schedule.
- Most tools deliver reports via a login-required dashboard; ReportsMate delivers them as branded emails, which clients open far more reliably than a portal they have to log into.
- The best tool for an agency manages multiple Pinterest clients under one white-label setup, alongside Google Ads, Meta and GA4 in the same report.
- Pinterest's own Ads Manager exports raw data, but it is not built for white-label, multi-client agency reporting.
- For social ads reporting agencies juggling several platforms, a single multi-platform tool beats stitching together one tool per channel.

What a Pinterest ads reporting tool does
A Pinterest ads reporting tool connects to your Pinterest Ads account, pulls campaign performance data through Pinterest's API, and turns it into a clean, branded report you send to clients on a schedule. Done well, it removes the manual export-and-paste cycle entirely.
The good ones do three things. First, they automate data collection so you are not screenshotting Ads Manager at 9pm. Second, they handle white-labelling - the report carries your agency's logo, colours and sender identity, not the tool's. Third, they deliver on a reporting cadence (weekly or monthly) without you lifting a finger.
Where tools differ most is delivery. Most are dashboard-first: the client gets a login to a portal. ReportsMate is email-first by design - the finished report arrives as a branded email. For a fuller view of how the platforms stack up, see our best social media reporting tools breakdown.
Best Pinterest ads reporting tools for agencies: 2026 comparison
Here is an honest comparison. We build ReportsMate, so treat that as disclosed - we have tried to represent every competitor fairly based on how they actually work.
| Tool | Delivery model | White-label | Multi-platform | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ReportsMate | Email-first (branded emails) | Yes, full (domain, logo, sender) | Google Ads, Meta, GA4, Search Console, GBP | Agencies that want clients to actually read reports |
| AgencyAnalytics | Login dashboard | Yes | Wide platform support | Agencies wanting an interactive client portal |
| DashThis | Dashboard + PDF | Yes | Wide | Preset dashboard templates |
| Whatagraph | Dashboard + scheduled exports | Yes | Wide | Visual cross-channel dashboards |
| Swydo | Dashboard + reports | Yes | Strong PPC focus | PPC-led reporting workflows |
| Supermetrics | Data pipeline into Sheets/BI | Depends on destination | Very wide connectors | Data teams building custom reports |
| Looker Studio | Free dashboard builder | Manual | Via connectors | Custom dashboards on a budget |
| Pinterest Ads Manager | Native export | No | Pinterest only | Raw single-account data |
A few honest notes. AgencyAnalytics, DashThis, Whatagraph and Swydo are capable, well-established tools - if your clients genuinely log into dashboards, they work well. Supermetrics and Looker Studio are powerful but skew toward people comfortable building reports themselves. Pinterest's native Ads Manager is fine for pulling raw numbers, but it is not a white-label, multi-client agency reporting system.
The dividing line is delivery. If you have ever sent a dashboard link and watched the open rate sit near zero, that is the gap email-first reporting closes.

Why email-first reporting wins for Pinterest clients
Pinterest clients are often e-commerce and retail brands - busy owners and marketing managers who live in their inbox, not in a marketing dashboard. Handing them another login is friction. The report that arrives as an email, branded as your agency, is the one that gets opened and read.
This matters more than it sounds. Agencies rarely lose clients because results were bad; they lose them because the client stopped feeling informed and quietly started shopping around. Consistent, readable communication is the cheapest retention tool you have, and a branded email report is communication the client cannot miss.
Email-first also means your Pinterest data does not sit in isolation. A single ReportsMate email can combine Pinterest campaign reporting with Google Ads, Meta and GA4 so the client sees the whole picture, not one channel at a time. That cross-channel view is what makes white-label client reports feel like strategy rather than a data dump.
The Pinterest metrics worth reporting
Pinterest reporting goes wrong when agencies dump every available metric. Clients do not need 40 columns. They need the handful that map to their goals. Lead with these.
- Impressions and reach - top-of-funnel visibility for the brand.
- Saves (repins) - a Pinterest-specific signal of genuine intent; users bookmarking a pin for later.
- Outbound clicks - clicks that actually leave Pinterest for the client's site, the metric that matters more than raw clicks.
- Conversions and conversion value - tracked via the Pinterest tag, tied to real revenue.
- ROAS and cost per conversion - the numbers that justify the spend.
For accurate conversion data, the Pinterest tag has to be firing correctly - worth confirming against the official Pinterest Business Help Centre before you build the report. Pair Pinterest conversion data with your GA4 view for a fuller attribution picture; the Google Analytics GA4 Help docs are the canonical reference there.
Insider tip: report saves and outbound clicks together. Saves show intent building; outbound clicks show intent acting. The ratio tells a story a raw impressions number never will. For more on choosing metrics, see our guide on what metrics to include in a marketing report.
How to set up automated Pinterest campaign reporting
The setup pattern is similar across modern tools, and with ReportsMate it runs about a minute per client.
- Connect the data source. Authorise your Pinterest Ads account, then add Google Ads, Meta and GA4 for the same client if you want one combined report.
- Apply your white-label branding. Set your logo, colours, sending domain and sender identity so the report looks like your agency's own work, not the tool's.
- Set the reporting cadence. Pick weekly or monthly. Pinterest performance shifts with seasonality and shopping moments, so monthly suits most retail clients, with weekly during peak campaigns.
- Let it send. The AI-powered insights and the data go out automatically on schedule. You review, the client reads.
If you want to see the time this gives back, run the numbers through our reporting time savings calculator. Manual reporting eats well over ten hours a week at most multi-client agencies; automating it is the difference between billing strategy time and burning it on copy-paste.
Pricing and how to choose
Most agency reporting tools price by clients or by data sources, and costs vary widely. ReportsMate plans are built around how many clients you manage, with a 14-day free trial, no credit card and no setup fee. Because pricing tiers shift, check the current pricing page for exact figures rather than trusting a number quoted in an old blog post.
When you choose, weigh four things: whether clients will actually open the report (delivery model), whether it white-labels fully, whether it covers your other platforms so you are not paying for several tools, and how long setup and maintenance take. For most social ads reporting agencies, a single multi-platform, email-first tool wins on all four.
Frequently asked questions
Q: What is the best Pinterest ads reporting tool for agencies in 2026?
A: The best tool depends on whether your clients actually engage with reports. If they log into dashboards, AgencyAnalytics, DashThis, Whatagraph and Swydo all handle Pinterest reporting well. If your clients ignore portals - which most busy e-commerce owners do - an email-first tool like ReportsMate gets the report read by delivering it as a branded email straight to the inbox. It also combines Pinterest with Google Ads, Meta and GA4 in one report. Start with how your clients behave, then pick the delivery model that fits, not the longest feature list. You can see how it works before committing.
Q: Can I report Pinterest Ads alongside Google and Meta in one report?
A: Yes, and you should. Clients want the whole funnel, not one channel at a time. Tools like ReportsMate, AgencyAnalytics and Whatagraph pull Pinterest, Google Ads, Meta and GA4 into a single multi-platform report. The advantage of combining them is context: a client sees how Pinterest's upper-funnel saves feed into conversions tracked across channels. Reporting each platform separately makes your agency look fragmented and forces the client to do the mental maths. One unified report, branded as your agency, is far stronger for retention and for renewal conversations.
Q: Does Pinterest have its own reporting tool?
A: Yes. Pinterest Ads Manager has built-in reporting and lets you export campaign data as a CSV. It is fine for checking a single account's raw numbers. What it does not do is white-label the report, manage multiple clients, combine Pinterest with other platforms, or deliver on an automated schedule under your agency's branding. For agency use - multiple clients, branded reports, set cadences - you need a dedicated reporting tool layered on top. Pinterest's native export is a data source, not an agency reporting system.
Q: Why send Pinterest client reports by email instead of a dashboard?
A: Because clients open emails and ignore dashboards. A login is friction; an inbox is habit. Most Pinterest advertisers are e-commerce owners and marketing managers who will not log into yet another portal each month. An email-first report removes that barrier entirely - the branded report lands in front of them automatically. This is the single biggest lever on whether your reporting actually supports retention. A report nobody opens does nothing for the relationship, no matter how good the data inside it is. Our piece on why clients don't read dashboards digs into the data.
Q: Which Pinterest metrics should I include in client reports?
A: Lead with impressions, saves, outbound clicks, conversions, conversion value and ROAS. Saves are the Pinterest-specific signal - users bookmarking a pin shows real intent. Outbound clicks matter more than raw clicks because they represent traffic that actually reached the client's site. Conversions and ROAS justify the spend. Avoid dumping every available metric; clients want the numbers tied to their goals, not a spreadsheet. Make sure the Pinterest tag is firing so conversion data is accurate, and pair it with GA4 for cross-channel context.
Q: How often should I send Pinterest campaign reports?
A: Monthly works for most retail and e-commerce clients, with weekly reports during peak shopping periods or active launches. The right reporting cadence balances keeping the client informed without overwhelming them. Pinterest performance is seasonal, so a monthly rhythm captures meaningful trends while weekly suits high-spend campaigns where the client wants closer visibility. Whatever you choose, consistency matters more than frequency - a report that always arrives on the first of the month builds trust. Automating delivery means the cadence holds even in your busiest weeks.
Final thoughts
The best Pinterest ads reporting tool for your agency is the one whose reports your clients actually read. The data collection is largely solved across every modern tool; the differentiator in 2026 is delivery. A branded report sitting behind a login the client never visits is worse than no report at all, because it creates the illusion of communication without the substance.
Lead with email-first delivery, combine Pinterest with your other channels, white-label everything, and automate the cadence. Do that and your Pinterest campaign reporting stops being a Sunday-night chore and starts being a retention asset.
