Over the past few years, the Mobile Ad industry has experienced a rapid and massive transformation increasing the amount of data available to those responsible for decision-making. With a reliable framework - based on solid evidence - now App and Game developers can measure outputs beyond mere profits to better interpret metrics such as eCPMs, impressions, and fill rates.
In our newest In-App Ad Monetization Performance Index Report, we have dived into the deepest oceans of data (known as tedious and never-ending spreadsheets) to draw a comprehensive analysis that will help you optimize your ad formats based on Region, Format, and Ad Demand sources.
If you’re looking to supercharge your mobile advertising - our Mobile In-App Ad Monetization Performance Index 2022’ is a MUST.

Ranking of Mobile Ad Networks
Probably the most demanded chart of our Performance Index. This year, we made it more comprehensive and accessible.
Instead of the previous convoluted layout of icons, this year we decided to represent it as a bar chart, where you can see at first glance, which ad network had more presence in the industry, but also easily compare their eCPMs.
And again, we have added a new pie chart, next to this rank, to be more transparent on the real revenue share of each ad network.
