Ads (format, video, rotation, frequency)
Show your own ads on the pre- and post-login pages as a banner, popup or fullscreen overlay, with video, rotation weight, per-device caps and targeting.
Ads are only the images and videos you upload. No third-party ad network, external script or external media URL is used; everything is served from the portal address.
In this guide
- Choosing the ad format and media.
- Rotating several ads in the same slot.
- Per-device caps and targeting.
Create an ad
- Open Advertisement Management from the left menu and press Create.
- Choose the hotspot and the Format: a banner stays inside the page, a popup or fullscreen ad opens as an overlay with a close button.
- Upload an image. If you add a video, the image is used as its poster and fallback.
- Save and set the ad active.
Video
MP4 (H.264) or WebM; at most 25 MB and 60 seconds. The server does not transcode. Video plays only on the post-login landing page. Where autoplay is blocked, such as the iPhone sign-in window, the poster is shown.
Rotation and frequency
- Rotation weight: when a slot has several ads, one is picked for each login with a probability proportional to its weight.
- Daily cap and Campaign cap are counted per device. When a cap is reached, another ad in the slot is shown. The daily cap cannot be larger than the total cap.
- Capped ads are hidden when the counter cannot be read, so a cap is never exceeded.
Targeting
You can target new or returning guests, any of the guest portal's 22 languages, weekdays, an hour range (Istanbul time, may cross midnight) and a start/end date. When it is unknown whether a guest is new or returning, audience-targeted ads are not shown.
Known limit
The impression is reserved when the page is drawn. If the guest's browser does not run scripts, a popup/fullscreen ad can use up a cap slot without being seen.
