Publisher properties

Name

The name of the publisher.

Domain

The domain name of the publisher. This is optional and has no effect on the ad serving setup.

Seller Type

Indicates whether the publisher owns the ad inventory, if it's an intermediary, or both. This is optional and has no effect on the ad serving setup.

Metadata

The metadata is a key-value pair that lets you identify and organize publishers, zones, advertisers, campaigns, and ad items. This is optional and has no effect on the ad serving setup.

Audience Database

Lets you select which User DB to use for Audience targeting.

Default Payout

The Default Payout field lets you change the factors and the calculations used to determine the payment to the publisher.

There are four options:

1. None - No default payout is set.
2. Rates - Payout is determined by Cost Per Thousand (CPM), Cost Per Click (CPC), and the Cost Per Action (CPA) metrics tracked by the system. For example, a CPM rate of $5.00 means that for every 1000 ad requests, a value of $5.00 would be added to the revenue of the assignment.
3. Total Revenue Share - payout is determined by the percentage that will apply to the advertiser rate(s) set in the assignment. For example, a revenue share (total) rate of 12% means that if the advertiser rate was $1000, the publisher payout would be $120.
4. Revenue Share Breakdown - payout is determined by specific revenue share percentages for CPM, CPC, and CPA, similar to how specific rates could be set with Rates (Custom).
