Make sure you have your PropellerAds account active before creating a campaign on the side of BeMob.
As PropellerAds is already listed in BeMob templates all the required fields will be completed automatically when this traffic source is selected.
To add PropellerAds from templates:
To make the configuration process easier, we have added the PropellerAds templates for different campaigns types: Interstitial, Popunder, Push Notifications and Survey Exit. Each template contains the list of dedicated tokens for specific campaign.
If you are not sure what campaign you are planning to run with PropellerAds, you should select the template with the name 'PropellerAds'.
If you are an experienced BeMob user or have tracking background, you can replace 'aid=REPLACE&pid=REPLACE&tid=REPLACE' with valid values provided on the side of PropellerAds and click Save button to store the traffic source for your future campaign.
However if you are at the stage of getting familiar with BeMob or even tracking in general, we strongly recommend to read this guide till the end.
The traffic source template consists of two sections: Traffic Source Details with postback settings and Parameters.
Setting up a postback between tracker and traffic source is extremely important if you require to pass the conversions data to your traffic source.
The PropellerAds pre-configured postback on the side of BeMob looks the following way:
{externalId} is BeMob dedicated token which will pass the ID of conversion.
{payout} will forward the amount of revenue received from the conversion.
Always make sure the {externalId} token is available in the postback URL as this token is required to pass the ID of conversion from BeMob to PropellerAds.
It is required to replace 'aid=REPLACE&pid=REPLACE&tid=REPLACE' with valid values which are available on the side of PropellerAds.
For this click the Tracking section on the side of PropellerAds and select BeMob tracker. The postback URL will be appear with all the preconfigured tokens.
Copy this postback URL and place on the side of BeMob.
On the side of BeMob Approved status should be selected to pass conversions data to the side of PropellerAds.
The list of parameters and tokens supported with PropellerAds are already preconfigured in the template.
These parameters and tokens are required to transfer the additional details on traffic to your report in tracker, e.g. zone IDs, campaign IDs, banner IDs etc.
Moreover, the templates for PropellerAds Interstitial, Popunder, Push Notifications and Survey Exit campaigns with dedicated pre-configured tokens are available.
If you pass the data on conversions to the PropellerAds side, make sure that External ID field is completed.
If you wish to receive the cost data automatically from PropellerAds, it is required to assure that cost token is available in the template.
The cost token is supported for the specific campaigns only.
It is possible to use cost parameter for automatic cost tracking for the following types of campaigns only:
BeMob provides a dedicated PropellerAds template for each campaign type and corresponding cost model.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to track cost data automatically for the following types of campaigns:
In this case it is required to select Do not track option in a campaign settings and update traffic cost manually.
To avoid manual cost updates and track traffic cost automatically for all campaign types set up the API integration with PropellerAds. This option can be additionally purchased in the Subscription settings.
The step-by-step guide about PropellerAds Integration is available here.
All the tokens available with traffic source settings will be automatically added at the end of Campaign URL once you select PropellerAds in campaign settings.

After PropellerAds is added from the templates, the campaign can be created in tracker.
Flow can be selected if you have a preconfigured list of offers and landing pages configured in the rule-based paths.
More about flows see here
Built-in Flow should be selected if the endpoint of traffic is an offer link with landing page.
If the traffic is forwarded straight to the offer, it is required to switch off the landing page in Built-in Flow settings.
Select URL if the traffic is forwarded to a single destination URL e.g. your website with no offer and landing page created beforehand.
