Popunder Delay option

Set up the number of seconds from the page load during which the popunder should not be fired. The countdown restarts every time user navigates or refreshes the page:

The idea is to show popunder with a delay to search and direct traffic (use Targeted configs by SubIds):

This allows you to use popunder ads without any risks of strikes. Based on our users experience, the setup works perfectly fine on their tube sites 🤗

Vast Stats Reports update 📈

Fill rate is the percentage of ad requests that get filled by the ad networks you're working with (Impressions/Requests*100%).

If ads preload is not disabled for your Vast Ad Spot, you might see higher amount of Requests than the actual visits within Report as in this case, we pre-load all available Vast creatives once the page is loaded to be able to decrease ad loading time so your website visitor won't see any ad load delay (spinner).
For example, you if you had 3 creatives connected to ad spot, for one webpage load, you would see 3 requests in total as we have preloaded 3 creatives available for the rotation at once. It respectively effects the fill rate metric but actually leads to a better user experience.

Clicks is a number of times when a user has clicked on the ad shown for that impression tracked by AdSpyglass code.

CTR shows how many website visitors clicked the ad to visit an offer website or landing page (Clicks/Impressions*100%).

Let's summarize:

So, you're able to create several withdrawal requests and obtain demanded amounts for different payment methods, and accounts.

Just make sure to specify your payment system's details each time when you create a request. We'll complete payment using your methods without any complexities.

But, clicking will not trigger the interstitial until we get a response from the ad network. After we get it, the interstitial will appear immediately without a pre-loader when clicked.

The Response timeout setting is also taken into account - if it were not possible to load the interstitial in the background within the specified time, it would not be shown on click, even if it were loaded later.
