Just before we start
Initially, let's familiarize ourselves with the product and input data to grasp the requirements for developing an advertising campaign.
Product: BABU88
GEO: Bangladesh
KPI: registration with debit/credit card
Landing page: preland
Babu88 is a versatile platform catering to sports events and online gaming, accessible via both Android and iOS applications as well as through a web browser.
Creating and Setting Up a Campaign
Prior to initiating and setting up a campaign, it's essential to establish fundamental targeting parameters, including reward size.
Just a quick reminder: Adsterra provides extensive opportunities for crafting diverse campaigns with meticulous settings.
In this case, a campaign example for Interstitial ads was set up with the following parameters:
Pricing type: CPA
Country: Bangladesh
Price: $1.8
Device format: mobile
Traffic type: all
Operating system: Android
To attract the most motivated traffic, the decision was made to employ multiple Interstitial banners alongside a prelander integrated within the link.
A unique aspect of this Social Bar template is that creatives appear atop the page content. Consequently, to proceed with viewing the content, users must either close the ad or engage with it to be directed to the landing page.
By utilizing the Social Bar constructor integrated into the campaign creation interface, banners were designed to align stylistically with the prelander.The significance of this stylistic resemblance lies in its ability to enhance interactivity and uphold a cohesive visual storyline extending to the landing page.

Also, concerning other instances within the iGaming niche: successful monetization can also be achieved through alternative formats. Our publishers, whom we welcome you to collaborate with, substantiate this with their case studies!
Guidelines for Launching Interstitial Ads
1. Ensure segmentation of your traffic sources based on operating systems. Establish separate campaigns for devices operating on iOS, Android, and Windows.
Reason behind it: this approach enables the creation of tailored templates for each operating system. Secondly, it provides more comprehensive data for analysis from each traffic source.
2. If your landing page, pre-landing page, or creative includes text in the local language, consider adding a language target to your campaign settings.
Reason behind it: by doing so, you'll conceal your advertising from non-targeted users, resulting in a more cost-effective and potentially profitable approach.
3. Ensure a cohesive visual style between the banners utilized and the landing page for consistency.
Reason behind it: elevates trust in your banners and encourages engagement in high-quality activities.
Interstitial ads are now accessible as a sub-format within the original Social Bar unit. Don't hesitate to try it today, so you won't regret not starting earlier tomorrow
Example of Interstitial Ads: Managing Intermediate Data
When setting your campaign live, it's important to analyze the daily statistics, particularly during the first days and weeks. This enables swift identification and deactivation of unprofitable sources (blacklisting), refining targeting to more precise ones.
While diligently working with daily statistics, we identified several sources with unsatisfactory traffic quality.
These targets proved ineffective for this specific Interstitial Ads case study:
- OS: Android 7.1.1, Android 4.4.4
