I want to give players a seamless experience by preloading ads so that when they request for a reward, the ads is shown immediately (ie no latency).
Sometimes the preloaded ads are never shown as players didn’t click on the reward button. I noticed the ads can become stale overnight.
Question: Does pre loading ads affect the income generation if they are not shown? ,
Found this related article which describes other issues that I faced. I have since migrated to Unity.Services.Mediation which seems to have better ad management.

Unity.Services.Mediation supports Autoload, which means preloading ads should not be an issue.
Link to the documentation. https://docs.unity.com/mediation/APIReferenceUnity.html
Hope this helps.
