Static ads are so last year! Rich, engaging animated GIFs are more lightweight than video ads and can seriously increase your eCPM. Try it out.
High-quality video ads captivate players with end cards that feel like personalized recommendations. Reward your players with in-game goodies or virtual currency after they watch a video.
Full-screen static ads are still the simplest and least intrusive way to grab your players’ attention.
Don't just look at it play with it! Playable ads are the best way to engage with your gamers and raise your eCPM.

Tips For Making Creatives
Use the right ad format. Videos are compelling but harder to produce. Static ads are simple but non-intrusive. Create different campaigns with different ad types and see which ones perform better. What ad formats does Chartboost offer?
Grab their attention with unique, striking images. Simple gameplay screenshots aren't enough! Show off your weird characters or magical landscapes in ways that set your app apart from the rest.
Use a memorable tagline that introduces your app's story or personality, such as Twenty planets one war, Hundreds of mind-slapping puzzles to make you doubt reality, or Stop taking sass from this ninja!
Create a clear, engaging call to action. Don't settle for a boring Download button! Use app-specific prompts like Join the Battle, Start Your Adventure, or Get Your Free Dolphin Cannon! Make it big and bold so users know exactly where to press.
Add an app store badge (optional but recommended). This may improve your creative's performance by giving your app credibility. You can get badges for the Apple App Store,Google Play, and Amazon Appstore.
Follow the marketing guidelines posted in your app store. And remember, we reserve the right to reject creatives that violate our Terms of Service.
Localize your ads. Separate your most important target countries into different campaigns and translate your ads accordingly.
