Integrate Vpon with Mediation

  • This guide helps publishers integrate Vpon ads into their iOS apps using Google Mobile Ads mediation.

  • It provides step-by-step instructions on setting up the Vpon adapter and SDK.

  • Publishers need an existing iOS app with the Google Mobile Ads SDK and a Google Ad Manager account.

  • The guide covers integrating banner and interstitial ads and setting up event notifications.

  • It explains how to check the ad network class name to identify the source of the ad.

This guide is intended for publishers who are interested in using Google Mobile Ads mediation with Vpon. It walks through the setup of a mediation adapter to work with your current iOS app and the configuration of additional settings.

Prerequisites

Add Vpon to your project

Integrate ads into your app the same as before. To integrate non-interstitial ads (banner size, leaderboard size, and so on), see Banner Ads. To integrate interstitial ads (full-screen ads that mask all other content), see Interstitial Ads.

The following steps change your ad placement into a mediation placement that can show ads from multiple networks.

  1. Download the adapter and SDK for Vpon from the resources above.

  2. Add the downloaded network adapter/SDK in Xcode: right-click on your project and click Add Files to project.

  3. Include any frameworks, compiler flags, or linker flags that Vpon require. There's no need to write additional code. Mediation invokes the Vpon adapter and SDK as necessary to create ads.

Set up event notification

To be notified of ad lifecycle events like impressions, you can implement a GADBannerViewDelegate. When using mediation, this delegate is automatically notified of events from Vpon. For example, impressions from any ad network are reported through the adViewDidReceiveAd: method of GADBannerViewDelegate.

Check the value of adNetworkClassName

You can optionally check the adNetworkClassName property on GAMBannerView, which returns the ad network class name of the ad network that fetched the current banner once the adViewDidReceiveAd callback is called:

Swift

func adViewDidReceiveAd(_ bannerView: GAMBannerView) {
  print("Banner adapter class name: \(bannerView.adNetworkClassName)")
}

Objective-C

- (void)adViewDidReceiveAd:(GAMBannerView *)bannerView {
  NSLog(@"Banner adapter class name: %@", bannerView.adNetworkClassName);
}

Similarly, for interstitials, check the adNetworkClassName property on GAMInterstitialAd inside interstitialDidReceiveAd:

Swift

func interstitialDidReceiveAd(_ ad: GAMInterstitialAd) {
  print("Interstitial adapter class name: \(ad.adNetworkClassName)")
}

Objective-C

- (void)interstitialDidReceiveAd:(GAMInterstitialAd *)interstitial {
  NSLog(@"Interstitial adapter class name: %@", interstitial.adNetworkClassName);
}
For ads fetched through custom events, it returns GADMAdapterCustomEvents.
