Once more, AdMobiSpy comes with something great for you. The service base was replenished with announcements from Unity Ads. In this case, we decided to talk more about this Unity ads network :
- general information;
- registration details;
- loading of creatives;
- features of launching advertising campaigns.
Unity Ads is a major platform for promoting games and mobile applications. Coverage is 1 billion users worldwide. It allows you to run exclusively interstitial video ads. Videos are integrated into the products of partners.
A self-learning system is built into the network. It shows ads to the most suitable players. As a result, developers effectively monetize their applications, and advertisers attract high-quality traffic.
Representatives of the advertising network promise the highest ARPU (average income from the user). In practice, the situation is not so rosy. Indeed, ARPU in new offers is more than in other grids. However, old applications are kept at an average level.
The following payment models apply:
- CPI – for the installs;
- CPV – for viewing.
Allowed traffic types:
- motivated;
- not motivated.
Pulling up statistics can take up to 7 days and / or 5,000 full video views.

You can create an account in two ways:
- sign in with your Google or Facebook account

Please note that, during registration you need to pass a "robot" check. It is not very obvious. You need to match the text and the icon.
2. Within 5-10 minutes a confirmation letter will be sent to your email account. If you are connected through VPN, e-mail can get into spam or not reach at all. Therefore, do not rush to close the window with a link to resend the form.
