In-app ads and store advertising
Appsinity serves advertising in two distinct places with two distinct accounting paths. Mixing them up is the most common misunderstanding about store revenue.
Open Appsinity StudioThe trailer pre-roll
When a visitor plays your trailer, Appsinity serves a video ad first from storage.appsinity.com/public/games/trailer-ad.mp4.
- Most viewers may skip after 20 seconds; the remainder may skip after 5 seconds.
- The countdown label is Skip in Ns, becoming You can skip this ad, with a Skip ad button.
- It plays before your trailer, not instead of it, and it applies to every listing with a trailer.
- You cannot opt out, target it, or earn a separate figure from it in the dashboard.
The eCPM model
A rate of 0 means the card shows CPM: -, which reads as no earnings rather than as unconfigured. Set the rate before judging the figure.
| Setting | Value | Range |
|---|---|---|
| Interstitial default | 260 cents | 0-100,000 cents |
| Rewarded default | 600 cents | 0-100,000 cents |
| Statistics window | 30 days | 1-365 days |
| Earnings basis | Listing visits | — |
What is recorded
Three ad tables back the accounting: the ad itself, its placements, and the events against them. The statistics endpoint aggregates them over the window you ask for.
- Placements are addressed by an id, so a placement that was deleted mid-window can leave orphan event counts.
- The window default of 30 days means a chart that looks empty may simply be showing the wrong period.
- There is no per-creative breakdown in Studio.
- Nothing attributes an ad event to a specific player account.
Ads and policy
- Declare Contains advertisements in the app declarations. It is an age-rating input, and it feeds the badge users see.
- Ads inside your build are yours; Appsinity does not serve or police them.
- A listing whose description says "no ads" while the declarations say otherwise is a misleading-metadata problem.
- Advertising of another product's install on your own listing is not possible — you cannot place ads here, only earn from them.
- See Ads policy for the rules Appsinity publishes.
