Bidding plan is not bidding
The most frequent cause of a Bidding Plan not making any bids is either the setup of the deal, CPM or bidding plan settings.
Double-check the setup in Deals Admin
- Correct Deal ID?
- Correct SSP?
- Correct floor price?
- Floor price in SSP currency?
Double-check the setup on the Bidding Plan
- Is the CPM over floor price and margin?
- Are correct formats in Portfolio connected that matches the formats specified in the deal?
- Are there any Audience rules or other Media rules enabled that will limit the inventory?
- Are there any CPM overrides set or formats unchecked in DrillDown?
Still no incoming traffic?
Please ask technical@deltaprojects.com to have a look at incoming traffic behind the machinery.
Not seeing any traffic still?
Then you'll have to contact the Publisher with all the necessary deal information to have them look into it. This is possibly an issue with the publisher setup or not correctly mapped seats.
