Uploading banner creatives

First, choose the type of your banner:

  • Upload banners - these are simple images that you can upload from your computer to DSP.
  • Remote banners - these are banners that you can upload from an outside server (eg. http://creative.get.me/abc.jpg?timestamp={timestamp} ) Remote banners must comply with ad exchange policies and technical requirements, and they're supposed to have a timestamp at the end of their address.
  • Javascript tag - these are HTML rich media format banners. Note that these ad servers must support https, comply with ad exchange policies, and technical requirements. Example:

Step 4: Upload companion banners (this step is not necessary) Companion banners must contain at least one of the following sizes: 300x250 or 300x60.
Step 5: Write Call to action text. This text should be short and engaging, eg. Buy now. It will describe a call to action button for the destination URL.
Step 6: Save your video ad. The video dimensions might change after uploading in comparison with the original video because the system resizes the video based on the quality of the video and other factors. However, this doesn't have any impact on the performance of the campaigns.
