As a Pro plan account, you can link your own ad account to the app and collect 100% of the ad revenues.

You'll be setting up an AdMob account:

When you've successfully opened the account on AdMob, you can either complete these steps below to set up the ad units, or we can take care of the rest of the setup for you (setup fee applies > see the bottom of this article for guidance):

The steps to set up the ad units are as follows:

  1. Set up your app. You will need to set up a different app for each platform. One for Android and one for iOS*. https://support.google.com/admob/answer/2773509?hl=en

  2. You'll need to setup 2 types of ad units under each of the corresponding apps: Native Advanced and Interstitial.

  3. Setting up Native Advanced Ad Units: please name the ad unit "Android_NativeAdvanced_YourAppName" (replace YourAppName with the actual name of your app 😄 );  Media Type: Image & Video;  Floor: $1;  Click "Create Ad Unit" and provide us with the ad unit ID. Repeat this same step, but with an ad unit for "iOS_NativeAdvanced_YourAppName"

  4. Setting up Interstitial Ad Units: please name the ad unit "Android_Interstitial_YourAppName";  Media Type: select all available;  Floor $1;  Frequency Capping: 20 impressions/day;  Click "Create Ad Unit" and provide us with the ad unit ID. Repeat this same step, but with an ad unit for "iOS_Interstitial_YourAppName"

  5. Setting up Restrictions: it's up to you, but we usually recommend setting up restrictions not to show ads from certain sensitive categories, if you think they might be offensive or unappealing to your audience. Of course, the sensitive category ads also tend to have higher CPMs (go figure!). You know your audience best and can tailor what they will see.


Finally, you'll need to provide us with all the App IDs and Ad Unit IDs in the following format:
App ID: ca-app-pub-12345678910111213~1234567890

Ad Unit Name, ID: ca-app-pub-123456789123456789/123456789

To find this number from your Ad Mob dashboard:
Click Apps > Select one of your apps (iOS or Android) > Click Ad Units > See the units listed.

*If you are published on only one platform, please only create an app for that specific platform.
