⚡ Before you start
Make sure you have correctly setup project.

  1. Set Manager Ids
  2. Select ad formats to use
  3. Add Ads Solution
  4. Advanced Integration
  5. Cross-promotion

In your Unity project, navigate to Assets > CleverAdsSolutions > Settings to create and modify default settings for each native platform.

⭐ Repeat the following steps for each platform in Android Settings and iOS Settings windows.

Manager Ids

In most cases, a CAS Manager Id is the same as the Android App's package name, and the iOS App's store Id.

  • package name uniquely identifies your app on the device and in the Google Play Store.
  • The store ID of an iOS app uniquely identifies your app in the Apple App Store.
  • You can find an app's store ID in the URL of your app’s Apple App Store listing. For example, the URL of an app page is apps.apple.com/us/app/id123456789. The app's store ID is 123456789.
  • If you haven't created an CAS account and registered an app yet, now's a great time to do so at cleveradssolutions.com.
  • In a real app, it is important that you use your actual CAS manager ID.

⭐ To work properly, you must define all identifiers that will be used in the application for a specific platform.

Select ad formats to use

To improve the performance of your application, we recommend that you only allow ad types that will actually be used in the application.

Advanced Integration

Advanced integration makes it possible to choose any variations of mediation networks. Feel free not to use ready-made solutions, and choose which mediated ad networks you want to integrate by checking the boxes in Advanced Integration section of settings window.

Cross-promotion

Cross-promotion is an app marketing strategy in which app developers promote one of their titles on another one of their titles. Cross promoting is especially effective for developers with large portfolios of games as a means to move users across titles and use the opportunity to scale each of their apps. This is most commonly used by hyper-casual publishers who have relatively low retention, and use cross promotion to keep users within their app portfolio.

Start your cross promotion campaign with CAS here.

⭐ CrossPromotion can be installed/removed using Solutions section.
