How to Create Packages

Creating a Package on Eskimi DSP: A Step-by-Step Guide

Eskimi DSP’s Packages feature allows advertisers to create and manage custom lists of websites, mobile apps, or specific placements for their ad campaigns. There are two main types of packages:

  • App/Site Packages: These packages contain specific websites and mobile apps where ads will be displayed.

  • Placement Packages: These packages are based on placement IDs, allowing advertisers to specify exact placements for their campaigns.

This guide will walk you through the process of creating and implementing both types of Packages in your campaigns.

App/Site Packages

    • Apps/Sites: Use the search function to select specific apps or websites to include in your package.

    • Only CustomInclude Bidonly: Setand Exclude decide where your campaign runs. All other options change how the campaign bids, spends or is optimised on the package's apps/sites, and the campaign keeps running on all other inventory too. Example: a specificpackage of Dutch sites with only Custom bid +20% still lets the campaign serve on German or Austrian sites. To run only on the package, also tick Include only.

    What it does

    Use it when

    Include only

    The campaign serves only on the apps/sites in this package. With several Include only packages, it serves on all of them together.

    You want the campaign to run on a fixed list (a whitelist).

    Exclude

    The campaign never serves on the apps/sites in this package.

    You want to block a list of apps/sites.

    Custom bid

    Enter a percentage: how much more you want to bid over your campaign CPM on this package's apps/sites (from -99% to +999%; a negative value bids lower). It does not limit where the campaign serves.

    You want to pay more for premium apps/sites, or less for cheaper ones.

    Custom daily budget

    Limits spend on this package to a share of the campaign's daily budget, from 1% to 99%. When the share is spent, the campaign stops buying this package for the package.rest of the day.

    CustomYou Daily Budget: Allocatewant a separatefixed share of daily budgetspend forto thego to this package.

    Custom Total Budget: Define the total budget

    limit

    Limits spend on this package to a share of the campaign's total budget, from 1% to 99%.

    You want a fixed share of the whole budget to go to this package.

    IncludeDisable Only:impression Ensurecapping

    The campaign's frequency cap does not apply on this package's apps/sites. It still applies everywhere else.

    A package needs more frequency than the rest of the campaign.

    Disable auto optimisation

    Automatic optimisation never removes this package's apps/sites, even if they miss the campaign's KPI.

    The apps/sites must keep running, e.g. publishers agreed with the client. The KPI may be harder to reach.

    Disable budget pacing for this package

    Even pacing does not spread spend on this package across the day, so it can spend early.

    Delivery on the package matters more than even spend during the day.

    Disable App/Site category exclusion

    The campaign's excluded app/site categories do not block apps/sites in this package.

    You want specific apps/sites from a category that is otherwise excluded.

    Allow multiple bids per user per second

    Lets the campaign runsbid exclusivelymore onthan the selected package.

  • Exclude: Prevent the campaign from running on the selected package.

  • Disable Impression Capping: Remove any limitations on the number of impressionsonce per user.

  • Disable Auto Optimization: Stop the system from automatically adjusting campaign performance settings.

  • Disable Budget Pacing for This Package: Prevent budget distribution adjustments over time.

  • Disable App/Site Category Exclusion: Override default category exclusions and allow all listed apps/sites.

  • Allow Multiple Bids Per User Per Second: Enable multiple bidssecond for the same user withinon this package. The frequency cap still applies.

    Rules to Keep in Mind
    • Every package you add to a campaign needs at least one second.

      option ticked.
    • If you use several Include only packages and give one of them a Custom daily budget (or Custom total budget), give all of them one.
    • Custom daily and total budget accept 1% to 99%. To send 100% of the budget to one package, use Include only on its own.
    • Package settings override the campaign settings for that package's apps/sites.
    • A package marked PMP only needs a private marketplace deal selected in the campaign.
    • Placement packages support Include only and Exclude only.
