Rewarded Ads and Frequency capping, how does it work if I set a certain limit but the user asks to see an ad when the limit exceeds?

Hello everyone,

I set a rewarded ad in my app, and in my logic this ad can be requested after some intervals that I choose. 

Anyway, i would like to set a frequency limit also from adMob side. My question is, do I have to handle in the code the case when a user asks to see an ad after the limit is reached? Let's say that i put a limit of 3 impressions, and a user taps to see the ad a fourth time. What will he see concretely in the app? an empty screen? or a crash or unexpected behaviour will occur if not handled properly in the code?

Thank you!

Hi there,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

With regard to your concern, you may set the frequency limit on account level. You may want to check this guide for your reference. Once the frequency limit (depending on your configuration) has been reached, the Ad Request will return a No Fill Error. In your use case, the user will no longer have a chance to tap the button to see the ad as there is no loaded ad at the first place (given that the user has reach their frequency capping limit).
