Banner Ads

After creating placements in the DT Console, add the following code snippets in the chosen context of your app. Access the Placement ID by using the copy button next to the placement name. For more information about creating placements in the DT Console, read here.

Screen

Banners are rectangle ads appearing either at the top or bottom of the screen when the user interacts with your app. The user can view them but cannot dismiss them. Banners are automatically refreshed by the DT FairBid SDK after 20 seconds.

The DT FairBid SDK refreshes banners automatically. To avoid discrepancies with DT's and 3rd-party networks' reporting, any automatic or manual banner refresh settings on 3rd-party network SDKs must be disabled.

Showing a Banner

Implement the code below to show a Banner:

Kotlin

val placementId = "12345"
Banner.show(placementId, activity)

Java

String placementId = "12345";
Banner.show(placementId, activity);

Hiding the Banner

If you want to hide the banner temporarily, implement the code below:

Kotlin

//hides the banner for a specific placement
val placementId = "12345"
Banner.hide(placementId)

Java

//hides the banner for a specific placement
String placementId = "12345";
Banner.hide(placementId);

Destroying the Banner

Once you have decided that you no longer want to use the banner, you must destroy it.

To destroy the banner, implement the code below:

Kotlin

//destroys the banner for a specific placement
val placementId = "12345"
Banner.destroy(placementId)

Java

//destroys the banner for a specific placement
String placementId = "12345";
Banner.destroy(placementId);

Banner Position

By default, the banners are placed at the bottom of your screen.

You can place them at the top by using the code below:

Top Position

Kotlin

val bannerOptions = BannerOptions().placeAtTheTop()
val placementId = "12345"
Banner.show(placementId, bannerOptions, activity)

Java

BannerOptions bannerOptions = new BannerOptions().placeAtTheTop();
String placementId = "12345";
Banner.show(placementId, bannerOptions, activity);

Or you can provide your custom view and place them in there:

Kotlin

val bannerOptions = BannerOptions().placeInContainer(viewGroup)
val placementId = "12345"
Banner.show(placementId, bannerOptions, activity)

Java

BannerOptions bannerOptions = new BannerOptions().placeInContainer(viewGroup);
String placementId = "12345";
Banner.show(placementId, bannerOptions, activity);

Adaptive Banners

By enabling the adaptive banner feature, you can receive the best banner size based on the ad width and screen size. This feature is currently supported by Google AdMob, Google Bidding, and Google Ad Manager only. This feature is disabled by default.

Networks that support adaptive banners will return ads with the best-fit height based on your banner size. Other networks will continue to deliver banners according to the specified ad size.

To use this feature, add the "adaptive" flag when defining your banner size using the code below:

Kotlin

val bannerOptions = BannerOptions().setAdaptive(true)
val placementId = "12345"
Banner.show(placementId, bannerOptions, activity)

Java

BannerOptions bannerOptions = new BannerOptions().setAdaptive(true);
String placementId = "12345";
Banner.show(placementId, bannerOptions, activity);

Adding Callbacks

The callback code below is required for the SDK to properly track the activity of your ad

Kotlin

Banner.setBannerListener(object : BannerListener {
    override fun onError(placementId: String, error: BannerError) {
        // Called when an error arises when showing the banner from placement 'placementId'
    }

    override fun onLoad(placementId: String) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is successfully loaded
    }

    override fun onShow(placementId: String, impressionData: ImpressionData) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is shown
    }

    override fun onClick(placementId: String) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is clicked
    }

    override fun onRequestStart(placementId: String, requestId: String) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is going to be requested
        // 'requestId' identifies the request across the whole request/show flow
    }
})

Java

Banner.setBannerListener(new BannerListener() {
    @Override
    public void onError(String placementId, BannerError error) {
        // Called when an error arises when showing the banner from placement 'placementId'
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onLoad(String placementId) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is successfully loaded
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onShow(String placementId, ImpressionData impressionData) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is shown
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onClick(String placementId) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is clicked
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onRequestStart(String placementId, String requestId) {
        // Called when the banner from placement 'placementId' is going to be requested
        // 'requestId' identifies the request across the whole request/show flow
    }
});

Interstitial Ads

Screen

Interstitials are either static or video ads presented before, during or after the user interacts with your app. The user can view and then immediately dismiss them. This is a non-rewarded format for the user.

The speed and stability of a user's internet connections may vary. It is highly recommended to fetch as much in advance of showing an ad as possible. This helps to ensure that all necessary assets are downloaded. For example, you may want to fetch an ad when a level starts or after a previous ad has been shown.

Making the Request

Below is an example of making a request for an Intersitial.

Example Request

Kotlin

import com.fyber.fairbid.ads.Interstitial

val placementId = "12345"
Interstitial.request(placementId)

Java

import com.fyber.fairbid.ads.Interstitial;

String placementId = "12345";
Interstitial.request(placementId);

Adding Callbacks

The callback code below is required for the SDK to properly track the activity of your ad

Kotlin

Interstitial.setInterstitialListener(object : InterstitialListener {
    override fun onShow(placementId: String, impressionData: ImpressionData) {
        // Called when the interstitial from placement 'placementId' shows up. In case the ad is a video, audio play will start here.
    }

    override fun onClick(placementId: String) {
        // Called when the interstitial from placement 'placementId' is clicked
    }

    override fun onHide(placementId: String) {
        // Called when the interstitial from placement 'placementId' hides. In case the ad is a video, audio play will stop here.
    }

    override fun onShowFailure(placementId: String, impressionData: ImpressionData) {
        // Called when an error arises when showing the interstitial from placement 'placementId'
    }

    override fun onAvailable(placementId: String) {
        // Called when an interstitial from placement 'placementId' becomes available
    }

    override fun onUnavailable(placementId: String) {
        // Called when an interstitial from placement 'placementId' becomes unavailable
    }

    override fun onRequestStart(placementId: String, requestId: String) {
        // Called when an interstitial from placement 'placementId' is going to be requested
        // 'requestId' identifies the request across the whole request/show flow
    }
})

Java

Interstitial.setInterstitialListener(new InterstitialListener() {
    @Override
    public void onShow(String placementId, ImpressionData impressionData) {
        // Called when the interstitial from placement 'placementId' shows up. In case the ad is a video, audio play will start here.
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onClick(String placementId) {
        // Called when the interstitial from placement 'placementId' is clicked
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onHide(String placementId) {
        // Called when the interstitial from placement 'placementId' hides. In case the ad is a video, audio play will stop here.
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onShowFailure(String placementId, ImpressionData impressionData) {
        // Called when an error arises when showing the interstitial from placement 'placementId'
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onAvailable(String placementId) {
        // Called when a interstitial from placement 'placementId' becomes available
    }
 
    @Override
    public void onUnavailable(String placementId) {
        // Called when a interstitial from placement 'placementId' becomes unavailable
    }
  
  	@Override
    public void onRequestStart(String placementId, String requestId) {
        // Called when a interstitial from placement 'placementId' is going to be requested
        // 'requestId' identifies the request across the whole request/show flow
    }
});

Example Showing an Ad

The following example checks to see if a Placement is available and if it is, uses the show request to display the ad.

Showing an Ad

Kotlin

val placementId = "12345"
if (Interstitial.isAvailable(placementId)) {
    Interstitial.show(placementId, context)
}

Java

String placementId = "12345";
if (Interstitial.isAvailable(placementId)) {
    Interstitial.show(placementId, context);
}

Rewarded Ads

Screen

Rewarded ads are an engaging ad format that shows a short video ad to the user and in exchange the user will earn a reward. The user must consent and watch the video completely through to the end in order to earn the reward.

The speed and stability of users internet connections may vary. It is highly recommended to fetch as far in advance of showing an ad as possible. This helps to ensure that all necessary assets are downloaded. For example, you may want to fetch an ad when a level starts, or after a previous ad has been shown.

Importing the Class

Before you can make a request to display a Rewarded ad, you must import the Rewarded class.

Kotlin

import com.fyber.fairbid.ads.Rewarded

Java

import com.fyber.fairbid.ads.Rewarded;

Make an Ad Request

After importing the Rewarded class, you must must make a request to display the Rewarded ads.

Requesting a Rewarded Ad

Kotlin

import com.fyber.fairbid.ads.Rewarded

val placementId = "12345"
Rewarded.request(placementId)

Java

import com.fyber.fairbid.ads.Rewarded;
 
String placementId = "12345";
Rewarded.request(placementId);

Adding Callbacks

The callback code below is required for SDK to properly track the activity of your ad

Callbacks

Kotlin

Rewarded.setRewardedListener(object : RewardedListener {
    override fun onShow(placementId: String, impressionData: ImpressionData) {
        // Called when the rewarded ad from placement 'placementId' shows up. In case the ad is a video, audio play will start here.
    }

    override fun onClick(placementId: String) {
        // Called when the rewarded ad from placement 'placementId' is clicked
    }

    override fun onHide(placementId: String) {
        // Called when the rewarded ad from placement 'placementId' hides. In case the ad is a video, audio play will stop here.
    }

    override fun onShowFailure(placementId: String, impressionData: ImpressionData) {

        // Called when a rewarded ad from placement 'placementId' is going to be requested
        // 'requestId' identifies the request across the whole request/show flow
    }
})

Java

Rewarded.setRewardedListener(new RewardedListener() {
    @Override
    public void onShow(String placementId, ImpressionData impressionData) {
        // Called when the rewarded ad from placement 'placementId' shows up. In case the ad is a video, audio play will start here.
    }
 
    @Override

        // Called when a rewarded ad from placement 'placementId' is going to be requested
        // 'requestId' identifies the request across the whole request/show flow 
    }
});

Example showing an ad

The following example checks to see if a placement is available and if it is, uses the show request to display the ad.

Showing an Ad

Kotlin

val placementId = "12345"
if (Rewarded.isAvailable(placementId)) {
    Rewarded.show(placementId, context)
}

Java

String placementId = "12345";
if (Rewarded.isAvailable(placementId)) {
    Rewarded.show(placementId, context);
}

Medium Rectangle Ads

Screen

Medium Rectangle (MREC) ads are 300x250 sized ads, serving both static and video, and positioned within editorial content of the app. There is no close button on MREC ads, and they are not skippable. Similar to Banner ads, MREC ads are refreshed according to a set refresh rate of between 10-120 seconds.

MREC Ads are available from FairBid SDK version 3.33.1.

Showing an MREC

Implement the code below to show an MREC:

Kotlin

fun showBanner() {
    val bannerOptions = BannerOptions().withSize(BannerSize.MREC)
            // if you don't specify your container view,
            // we'll display it at the bottom of the screen
            .placeInContainer(YOUR_CONTAINER_VIEW_GOES_HERE)
    Banner.show("placementId", bannerOptions, activity)
}

Java

private void showBanner() {
    BannerOptions bannerOptions = new BannerOptions().withSize(BannerSize.MREC)
        // if you don't specify your container view,
        // we'll display it at the bottom of the screen
        .placeInContainer(YOUR_CONTAINER_VIEW_GOES_HERE);
    Banner.show("placementId", bannerOptions, activity);
}
