How are line items set up in Google Ad Manager (GAM)?
UAM requests access to your GAM account and automatically sets up line items with your permission. The new order and line items pushed for UAM will not affect any existing orders or line items.
How do I get started with UAM?
- Create an account using the invitation code and the approved site in the invitation email. If you haven’t received an invitation email, see if you qualify here.
- Set up your GAM account with a UAM order and line items so GAM can receive UAM bids. We have automated this step with a one-click push.
- Integrate the JavaScript on your website’s page header so ads on your page can request bids from UAM.
- Set up your payment information so you can start receiving payments.
What reporting is available?
Reporting includes bid requests, impressions and earnings with filters for sites, ad slots, sizes, price points, and devices.
How do I get paid?
UAM consolidates earnings from all bidders and issues one payment on a net 60-day basis. For example, revenue earned in January net of tax will be paid at the end of March if it meets the USD $5 minimum earnings threshold.
What are the fees for using UAM?
UAM charges a 10% transaction fee from SSP and Amazon bid prices prior to conducting a first price auction.
I received an invitation which mentions one approved site but I own more sites. Can I use UAM on all my sites?
Other sites must also undergo the same review process to be approved. Please first create an account with the approved site, then contact us with your remaining sites.
