Key differentiator

A game changer, CPA Goal differs from its analog, Target CPA, by a more tailored traffic optimization.

Instead of entering an ideal payout, you create a rule to automatically cherry-pick the best traffic removing those placements that spend too much. You literally pay less with CPM or CPC pricing while meeting core KPIs.

Top benefits for advertisers

Reduce spending on traffic

You buy impressions or clicks while setting rules to optimize them by important target actions

Profit from every placement

Algorithms will check every ad placement and leave only those that meet your KPIs and don’t eat up the budget

Save time on placement unlinking

The tool constantly checks all traffic and automatically unlinks poor-performing ad placements

Customize rules for a better impact

You can save and update as many rules as needed applying them to any of your CPM or CPC campaigns
