Pricing

What a publisher keeps

The share is 70 % to the publisher and 30 % to AdBubbles. A campaign's publisher share is divided among the sites the campaign ran on, in proportion to bubble opens, and accrues daily rather than at the end of the month. An open is a bubble that stayed visible for one second.

Payouts are monthly, through Stripe Connect, in the publisher's own currency, to an account the publisher controls. Earnings accrue from the first live day whether or not that account has been connected yet.

What an advertiser buys

Three monthly prepaid packages, named Starter, Standard, and Network. They are sold as monthly subscriptions anchored to the calendar month, and a campaign started mid-month is prorated for the rest of it. Each package sets how many words a campaign may hold and how far it reaches: named sites, one category, or the whole network.

Whatever the package, the exclusivity rule is the same: one advertiser per word, per site, per calendar month.

The prices are not set yet

AdBubbles is seeding the network with its own sites and its own businesses first. The right unit to price in is cost per thousand bubble opens, and that figure will come from the first month of real traffic rather than from a guess. Package prices are published here when they are set.

We have not published an open rate, a click rate, or an earnings figure, and this page will not carry one until the network has produced it. Articles on this site say the same wherever the subject comes up.

Refunds

A campaign rejected in review is refunded in full. A campaign removed for a policy breach part-way through a period is refunded pro rata for the days it did not run, and publishers keep what had already accrued.
