Monetize the Conversation
The OpenWeb iOS SDK supports two ad formats:
- Banner (320X50, 320x100, 300x250)
- Interstitial (full page)
The interstitial ad appears once per article when the user navigates to a Conversation. The banner ad appears on the article page above the Conversation.
NOTE
Ads are currently being A/B tested. The ads will be shown to certain users according to an A/B test. The next step will be testing more ad formats to optimize both experience and revenue.
Implementation
In order to see ads in your app using our SDK, there are a few steps:
- When filled the GAM (Google Ad Manager) form should indicate apps. Once the form is approved (check with your PSM) ads will be eligible to appear.
- The app-ads.txt needs to be implemented in the web environment: (www.your-domain.com/app-ads.txt). Read more about app-ads.txt.
- Our monetization team will create a campaign for native app ads.

Disable ads
By default, OpenWeb helps you to monetize your content and engagement experiences by showing ads to your users.
If you would like to provide an ad-free experience for your subscribed users, use the following steps:
- Contact Support to request that ads be disabled for your subscribers.
- Define
user_metadata.is_subscriber
during the backend SSO handshake or when updating a user's details.
When you pass Base64-encoded "user_metadata.is_subscriber": true
during the login process, you indicate that the user is a subscriber. During the user's session, no ads will be shown.
IMPORTANT
If a user's subscriber status changes, your must log out the user and complete a new SSO flow. This ensures that a user's previous cached client state for
user_metadata.is_subscriber
is not used.
