Campaign settings: matching Adsquare requirements to Mediasmart


Your mediasmart campaign must match certain Adsquare settings in order for the segment to deliver correctly

  • It must be Mobile Application-enabled

        - Adsquare cannot  target cookies in mobile web or desktop devices in
          Mediasmart

        - This can be found under ‘Placement’ in the Targeting section 

  • For Proximity Targeting, the Latitude/Longitude must be included in your supply source

        - Adsquare looks at the GPS signal in the Bid Request        
        - This is primarily available for In-App Inventory

  • For Audience Targeting, the Mobile Advertising ID must be included in your supply sources

        - Adsquare looks at the Mobile Advertising ID in the Bid Request                
        - This is primarily available for In-App Inventory

Campaign setup in Mediasmart: settings reducing reach

If you have applied one of the following settings in your campaign, it may further reduce the delivery of your Adsquare segment.

  • Frequency Cap: a daily cap on impressions per user

  • Whitelisting/blacklisting: filtering in or out certain users

  • Creative Format: abnormal formats vs. standard formats

  • Bid strategy/ Price: the bidding strategy used towards users

  • Private deals: with supply sources

  • Geofilter and Time-filter: avoid using this if you already have it applied on your Adsquare segment  

If you notice your campaign is not delivering any impressions, check the set-up of these above.
