A Pinterest ad account is a central tool used to create, manage, and pay for ads on Pinterest. It is essentially your advertising profile on Pinterest.

A Pinterest customer list is a custom audience that allows businesses to target their existing customer base with Pinterest ads, making them more relevant and effective.
