Need help with setting AdMob as a mediation platform in Unity
Hello devs!
After finishing a small mobile game I’m ready to upload it to Google Play, App Store and other stores like Playphone.
Before doing that, I need to finish setting up my Ad Networks and I’m a complete rookie on that subject.
I have successfully integrated UntiyAds, AdMob and AdColony as standalone systems.
Now, I want to use AdMob as a mediation platform for AdColony (and in time add some other networks).
In this link: Get started | Android | Google for Developers, there’s documentation for each Ad Network supported by AdMob.
I don’t seem to be able to follow AdColony’s integration process since what appears in the documentation is not valid for Unity.
After googling around, I haven’t found any specific guide on how to set this up and I can’t get around on how to do it.
Assuming I just want to set this up for Android:
- Is there any reference documentation somewhere on how to do this in Unity?
- What do I have to include in my project besides de Google Mobile Ads Plugin and Google Play Services?
- Do I have to include the Unity AdColony Plugin or do I have to include the AdMob AdColony adapter? Or both?
- Do I have to code AdColony configuration in my project or just setting it up in AdMob’s dashboard is enough?
- Do I have to upload my game to the store in order to test mediation or can I use test ads and test devices for this?
- On Ad Mob, my AdColony eCPM appears as “Pending”. Does this mean that it will not show AdColony ads?
- Finally, can I use these Ad Networks on other non-mainstream stores like Playphone?
Thanks in advance for taking the time to read and for any help you can give me.
