See how each publisher sells its ad spots.

Every ad spot says who runs the purchase, how it transacts and what you pay for, so you know the way in before you reach out.

Who runs the purchase

You book it yourself, ask for a quote, or work with the sales team or a marketplace.

How it transacts

A direct buy, a programmatic deal at an agreed price, or an auction.

What you pay for

A fixed price, or a rate per thousand impressions, per click or per action.

Buying options

Three facts on every ad spot,
kept apart.

A self-serve spot can still be an auction, and a programmatic deal can have a fixed price. We record each fact separately, so you see exactly what you are buying.

  • Who runs the purchase, for every ad spot
  • How it transacts, from a direct buy to an open auction
  • What you pay for, such as a fixed price or a CPM

How to buy: Self-service
Transaction types

Five ways a buy can transact.

They run from the most committed to the most open.

  1. Direct

    You agree the placements, dates and price with the publisher.

  2. Programmatic guaranteed

    You reserve ad spots at an agreed price, and your DSP delivers them.

  3. Preferred deal

    You see the ad spots first at a fixed price, with no obligation to buy.

  4. Private auction

    Invited buyers bid above the publisher's floor price.

  5. Open auction

    Any eligible buyer bids for each impression through an exchange.

Through a DSP

Start with your DSP.

Open any DSP to see which publishers you can buy through it.

For every buyer

Who uses it.

The best option depends on your budget, your team and your tools.
