Quick answer
Evaluate onboarding by scoring each platform 1–5 on: sign-up friction, clarity of the first steps, payment ease and visible minimums, guidance inside the campaign form (recommended bids, previews), quality of documentation and FAQ, and speed and helpfulness of support. Run the same first campaign on each. Adsun focuses on a short path: quick sign-up, USDT top-up, a guided form with suggested bids and direct support on Telegram.
Key takeaways
- Score six onboarding criteria 1–5.
- Use the same first campaign everywhere.

Metric definitions and formulas
- CPM
- Cost per mille: what an advertiser pays for 1,000 ad impressions.
CPM = (Ad spend ÷ Impressions) × 1,000 - CPC
- Cost per click: average price an advertiser pays for one click.
CPC = Ad spend ÷ Clicks - CTR
- Click-through rate: the share of impressions that produced a click.
CTR = (Clicks ÷ Impressions) × 100% - eCPM
- Effective CPM: what a publisher earns per 1,000 impressions, whatever the pricing model.
eCPM = (Publisher earnings ÷ Impressions) × 1,000 - Fill rate
- The share of ad requests that returned an ad.
Fill rate = (Filled ad requests ÷ Total ad requests) × 100%

Worked example
Hypothetical example — not real Adsun or Telegram Ads data
A small business tests two platforms for 7 days with $100 each. Official Telegram Ads at a $2 CPM gives 50,000 views and 250 clicks (CPC $0.40). An Adsun CPC campaign at a $0.10 bid gives 1,000 clicks. With a 10% sign-up rate, cost per sign-up is $4.00 vs $1.00. Setup time: note minutes from sign-up to first live ad on each platform. Decide on your own measured numbers.
Adsun measurement methodology
Adsun counts an impression when an ad is rendered in a publisher block, a click when the user opens the ad destination, and a reward only after the server-to-server Reward URL confirms completion. Debug-mode traffic is excluded from billing and reports. Metrics are shown per platform, block and country in the partner and advertiser dashboards. Adsun does not publish aggregate network benchmarks in this guide; any number below marked “Hypothetical” is illustrative only. See the SDK documentation for integration details.
