Pollfish Rewarded Surveys - New AdMob Mediation Adapters - How to go official?

[Andreas Vourkos]

Hello everyone

AdMob has recently released the new APIs for Rewarded Ad Units that support not only videos but also surveys and other interactive ads. 

For people that want to show surveys from other survey providers also, aside from surveys provided by Google AdMob, they can now use Pollfish new AdMob Adapters:

Android: https://www.pollfish.com/docs/android-admob-adapter

iOS: https://www.pollfish.com/docs/ios-admob-adapter

We are looking to see how we can provide those adapters through the official AdMob page. Does anyone know who we should outreach from within Google's team to initiate this discussion.

Thanks in advance.

Kind Regards

Hello Andreas,

Thanks for reaching out to us. I'm afraid our team can only assist you with the Mobile Ads SDK specific concerns. For any of these kind of concerns, you need to contact your Account Manager from Google(If you are assigned one) or If you do not have one, you can post your concern in the AdMob Help Forum and they will be able to take a look into your request.

Regards,
Deepika Uragayala

Hello Deepika

Thank you for your response. We are a monetization network. Can you please let us know how we can get assigned an Account Manager from Google? (we will post also in the forum as advised)

Looking forward to hear from you.

Kind Regards

Andreas

Hello Andreas,

Account Managers will be assigned to publishers based on the AdMob account levels. If you don't have an account manager, we prioritize this work based on value to AdMob publishers, so the best way for you to get higher on that prioritization list(for our mediation team to consider your request) will be to find AdMob publishers who would like to use your Ad Network, those who already do so via custom events, or those who would be willing to switch to AdMob only if your Ad network becomes supported. Those publishers should escalate this request via their Google Account Managers and they will handle the rest internally.

Hello Deepika

Thank you for you message. 

Actually we do have very high profile publishers that requested this and are currently using either AdMob's mediation or MoPub's mediation. We decided to provide an AdMob AdAdapter for them. 

Since AdMob decided to generalize the Rewarded Ads placement from being only focused on Rewarded Videos, to include Surveys and interactive ads too, it should be looking to provide at least one more provider/network to its publishers looking to monetize with this format, otherwise why call it Mediation if there is only one source/network of that format? Pollfish survey network is currently the biggest player in the space of survey monetization and it could be a good alternative choice along with surveys from AdMob.  

Please let me know if you would like any more info from our side. Thanks in advance for your time and help!

Kind Regards

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

Thank you for your interest in becoming part of the AdMob mediation network. We believe that this will indeed be a proposition beneficial for both parties.

Given that our scope of support in this thread is limited to technical concerns of the AdMob SDK, I will thus be forwarding your proposition to the rest of the team for further discussion. Rest assured that someone from our team will be communicating with you on this going forward.

Regards,
Teejay Pimentel
