Direct Publisher Monetization Problems

I monetize my DP channel for more than 3 months and I'm not happy with the statistic, technical support and the total procedure at all. This topic has been opened to share our experience.

Am I the only person that has these problems?

Re: Direct Publisher Monetization Problems

hmm... so Direct Publisher Channels cannot use Subscription for the time being? I am trying to monitize as subscription but there is no option others than the ads?

Thanks

Re: Direct Publisher Monetization Problems

I am getting 200 installs a day... and zero $ from monetization!
I guess better use SDK and subscription fee for install...

Re: Direct Publisher Monetization Problems

is subscription or one time purchase monetizing still not available for Direct Publisher? I do not know why it is taking all this time to add it? or am i missing something?

I also need to convert my subscription channels from SDK to DP. I don't have the time to learn SceneGraph but I may have to find the time if they don't add the subscription option soon.

Well, in our experience, your 200 ad supported installs a day will turn into a couple  of subscription installs a day.......maybe.  Even when there wasn't so many channel options, getting even a small amount of money out of people was impossible.  You'd be better off writing your own software and learning CTV adops if your serious about the business.
