The Problem

Changing ad format settings — like charge types or self-service access — required contacting your Topsort account manager. Marketplace operators couldn’t update configuration on their own, slowing down iteration and creating unnecessary back-and-forth.

The Solution

Each Ad Format page in the Admin Dashboard now lets marketplace operators manage configuration directly. View all campaigns for a given ad format, change charge types, and control self-service vendor access — entirely self-service, no account manager needed.

Sponsored Listings

• Charge type: Choose between CPC, CPM, or CPA
• Self-service access: Enabled by default for all vendors

Banners

• Charge type: Choose between CPC or CPM
• Self-service access: Restrict access for the entire marketplace or by individual vendor

Brands

• Charge type: Choose between CPC or CPM
• Self-service access: Restrict access for the entire marketplace or by individual vendor

Videos

• Charge type: Choose between CPC or CPM
• Self-service access: Restrict access for the entire marketplace or by individual vendor

How It Works

1. Navigate to Ad Formats

   Open any Ad Format page (Sponsored Listings, Banners, Brands, or Videos) in the Admin Dashboard.

2. View campaigns

   See all campaigns running for that ad format in a single view.

3. Configure charge type

   Select the charge type that fits your monetization strategy — CPC, CPM, or CPA (Sponsored Listings only).

4. Manage self-service access

   For Banners, Brands, and Videos, restrict self-service access for the entire marketplace or for specific vendors. Sponsored Listings are enabled for self-service by default.
