  • Allowing all creative types will help maximize your earnings.
  • However, if you do have a strong preference on not allowing certain creative types, you can disable “Allowed All Creative Types” and select the creative types you want to allow.

A/B Test
  • This is for enabling A/B test for this Mediation placement.
  • The best practice is to not enable A/B test until you finish setting up both Bidding and Waterfall in this Mediation placement.

Bidding Settings

eCPM Floor
  • If you are using bidding only in this Mediation placement, you can enable eCPM floor by either setting a global floor or country-specific floors.
  • Country level eCPM floor takes precedence over the global eCPM floor. For any countries that don’t have country level eCPM floor, Mediation will use the global eCPM floor.
  • If you are using both bidding and waterfall in this Mediation placement, you should not enable eCPM floor, since you would want bidding partners to compete in all ad requests with non-bidding networks/line items.
⚠️Warning

Setting higher eCPM floors will largely increase the risk of lowering the fill rate.
