Frequently Asked Questions
Answers for advertisers and publishers
General
What is AdsBender?
AdsBender is a two-sided ad network: advertisers launch campaigns to buy traffic, and publishers add ad zones to monetize theirs. Both sides run through the same four ad formats and the same three pricing models.
Which ad formats does AdsBender support?
Four: Popunder, Page Bar, In-Page Push, and Interstitial. Each format has its own page explaining how it appears and which kinds of offers it suits.
For advertisers
How do I launch a campaign?
Sign up or log in as an advertiser, open the campaign builder, pick a pricing model and an ad format, choose the countries to target and set your bid and budget, then upload creatives and submit the campaign for review.
What is the minimum budget, and how do I pay?
A campaign’s total budget starts at $10. You fund your wallet before launching, with PayPal and Razorpay, and spend is deducted from the balance as your ads serve. Deposits are non-refundable except where the law requires it or we agree otherwise in writing.
How long does campaign or ad zone approval take?
Every campaign and every ad zone is reviewed before it can serve. We don’t promise a fixed review time, and you can follow the status in your dashboard.
Which pricing model should I use — CPA, CPC, or CPM?
CPM charges per thousand impressions, CPC per click, and CPA per completed action (install, lead, signup). Each shifts risk between advertiser and network differently — CPM is lowest cost with the least certainty, CPA is highest cost with the most. Choose by how well-tested the offer already is: CPM for a new GEO or a complex, multi-step conversion flow; CPC once click-through and landing-page performance are proven; CPA once the whole funnel is validated and the flow is simple.
For publishers
How do I monetize my website?
Sign up or log in as a publisher, add your site, and create an ad zone in one of the four formats. Once the zone is approved you'll get a code snippet — place it on your site and payouts start accruing from live traffic.
Is there a minimum traffic requirement to join?
No — there's no entrance traffic limit. A brand-new site can add an ad zone and start monetizing right away.
How much does it cost to join as a publisher?
Nothing. Creating an account and adding ad zones is free; AdsBender only takes a share of the revenue an ad zone actually generates.
How do publisher payouts work?
Your balance updates in the dashboard as valid traffic is recorded. Earnings are reviewed for invalid activity before they can be withdrawn, and once your balance reaches the minimum payout threshold you can request a payout to the payout method you provide. Identity and tax verification may be required before a payout is released.
What is the minimum payout?
The minimum payout is $20. Once your balance reaches it, you can request a payout from your dashboard.
When and how are publishers paid?
There is no fixed pay date: you request a payout from the dashboard once you reach the minimum. It is sent to the payout method you provide, which may be PayPal or Razorpay/RazorpayX where available in your country.
What traffic is not allowed?
Bots and other non-human traffic, and anything fraudulent, invalid or against section 6 of the Terms. Earnings from such traffic can be withheld or reversed.
Will adding an ad zone hurt my Core Web Vitals?
Not if it's wired in correctly — reserved space for the ad container, non-blocking script loading, and initialization that doesn't compete with user interactions are the three things that matter most.
