Publisher Portal is a platform for publishers to download tags for publisher-paid placements. This platform is just for publisher-paid placements: that's any placement where the publisher pays some or all of the ad serving costs. (Working with the advertiser, your site can agree to pay either all of the ad serving costs, or just the Studio uplift fees.) The other kind of placement is agency-paid, where the agency pays the costs.
Basic processLet's say you're the publisher:
-
First a trafficker gets the publisher-paid placement ready for you in Campaign Manager 360.
-
Next your organization gets an email from Campaign Manager 360 that your tags are ready in the Publisher Portal. The email might go to you, or it might go to another person working with you: the email address for notifications from Campaign Manager 360 is based on the Site Directory or the contact information the Campaign Manager 360 trafficker provides.
-
Finally, you access the portal, approve your placements, and download the tags so you can traffic them on your site.
Use Publisher Portal
Use the Publisher Portal to approve placements and download tags. You can't download tags for a placement until the placement is approved.
- Pending approval: Awaiting approval of the ad serving fees
- Approved: Ad serving fees accepted and tag is now available for download
- Rejected: Ad serving fees rejected—the Campaign Manager 360 advertiser has been notified
To view rejected tags, filter by status.
