Content distribution

Content distribution

Select one of the following content distribution methods:

  • Frequency: specify the repetition rate of an ad, for example every 120 seconds. This means that the ad will be shown every two minutes on the selected screens during the specified time.

  • Playbacks: specify the number of target playbacks. The system automatically calculates the repetition rate for each screen. For example, if you have a network of five players and you want them to show your ad 100 times a day for 30 days, you should book 15000 playbacks.

  • Live tags: tell the player when to display content based on current data (like weather data) and specify a maximum number of target playbacks. For example, if you book 15000 playbacks for a month on your network of five players, each player will be asked to play the target ad a maximum of 15000 times on the first day of the booking.

  • Share of Voice: specify how many percent of the advertisement time the ad receives. This is the simplest strategy regarding price calculation. For example, ten percent means that the ad is displayed ten percent of the time reserved for ads on specific screens.

Values can be modified in the booking

Select to allow users to edit content distribution settings in the booking.

  • Click Possible values to predefine a set of values that users can select from when they change the settings in the booking.
