Click here, to add your first app to the console.
Adding an App
Having received the acceptance email from DT, it's time to start setting up your apps in the console.
Follow these steps to add an app to the console:
- Navigate to the left side menu bar, under Monetization click Offer Wall
- Select Applications
- Click the
button located on the top left
App Details
- Select either Android or iOS platforms for your app.
The platform selection indicates which platform you deploy your build, and cannot be changed once the app is added.
- Enter the name of your app in the Name field. We recommend providing a name that is easily distinguishable if you intend to add more than one app
- Enter the URL of your app in the App Store or Google Play Store. We use this URL to pull an icon to display by the app name in the dashboard
-
Mark the checkbox
-
Click
Virtual Currencies
Add the virtual currency available to your users.
You can use different currencies for each placement, by changing the default setting when modifying app settings.
-
Enter a name for your virtual currency in the Name field. The Currency ID is automatically populated to the ID field
- Click on
to upload an icon to represent the currency
- Click
Once you finish configuring your app, you can no longer edit the Currency ID. If you want to change the ID, you must remove the currency and create a new one with the new ID.
Default Placement
Set the default settings to all your placements. You can always change these when modifying app settings, as well as introduce new placements with other settings when creating placements.
- Select if you want your default setting to activate placements immediately by choose inactive or active mode
Setting a placement enables either:
- Inactive Mode: The placement is created but not live, and no traffic is provided for that placement
- Active mode: the placement is live, and it's traffic data is shown in the reports
- Testing Mode: This mode can be set when modifying app settings, or when creating new placements. This mode will present you with test offers, allowing you to test the integration, callbacks and the user flow
- Enter your exchange rate (e.g., 100 diamonds = 1 US$)
This sets the value of your virtual currency that equates to one Euro or US Dollar (depending on the currency you have set in your account settings).
- For a better user experience, we recommend rounding up this value, since the exchange rate of the virtual currency cannot be a decimal, only an integer (e.g., a user can't receive half a diamond).
- Click
Once you click Save, your app is created in the Dashboard. Your app is placed in testing mode, by default. This mode removes the app's data from your analytics but otherwise has no effect. You still receive the inventory normally when requesting ads.
You have finished creating your app. Note that you can easily copy the App ID generated by DT at any time from the app control panel.
Now that you added an app to the console, the next step is to create placements.
Creating Placements
A placement refers to a location within your app where ads can be displayed. This location might be, for example, on your start screen, on the Game Over screen, or the bottom or top bar of the app. You can add multiple placements within one app. For each placement, you can define a specific ad format, configuration, and delivery rules to maximize performance.
Before configuring a placement, you must ensure that you have your virtual currency configured. If you have not already done so, you can do so by modifying your app settings.
- Select the app for which you want to create a placement|
- In the placement panel, you can:
- Edit the default placement, which was automatically created when adding the app
- Configure new placements and customize the UI
Configure a Placement
- Click
- Enter a name for your placement in the name field
- Select a placement status: inactive, testing, or active
- Inactive Mode: The placement is created but not live, and no traffic is provided for that placement
- Active mode: the placement is live, and it's traffic data is shown in the reports
- Testing Mode: This mode will present you with test offers, allowing you to test the integration, callbacks and the user flow
Virtual Currencies
- From your drop-down list, select the currency that the user will be offered on this placement's Offer Wall
- Enter the exchange rate for the placement, e.g., US$1 = 100 diamonds
- Click on

- Select as many countries from the drop-down list, and enter the new exchange rate for this group of countries
UI Customization
UI Customization allows you to adjust the look and the feel of your placement by choosing the colors of the tags, button background, and text color.
- Click the Sample PSD (photoshop) file. The PSD template contains design instructions on how to format the banner. Once you have exported the banners, you can upload them to your dashboard.
- You can opt for the tag, button, and button text color, changing the DT Offer Wall UI.
The button's color is also the placement's main color, impacting the menu and top banner, assuming no image is applied
- Upload the required image for both mobile and tablet. This is valid for both animated .gif files and image files.
- Click
to save your this placement's Offer Wall configurations.
You have successfully created a placement.

For more details on Reward Handling, read here.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Use DT Virtual Currency Server | Your app uses DT's Virtual Currency Server for delivering user rewards VCS is the default rewarding option in the dashboard. Rewards are stored in our system, and you must make a request through a virtual currency callback (via our SDK) to give the reward |
| Receive server-side callbacks | Your app uses server-side callbacks for delivering user rewards. All rewards are sent immediately to your server (a configured callback URL). You server will then need to be able to process the reward as soon as it comes in |
| Callback URL | The URL our system calls when delivering rewards via server-side callback. All appropriate parameters are added and populated when calling the URL |
| Security token | The security token DT uses to populate the sid parameter in the callback to sign the callback |
Testing Callbacks
Click and a Test Server-side Callback window appears
By entering a reward amount and selecting a virtual currency, you can have our system configure a reward callback for you.
Once you hit the Send callback button, our servers send a callback to your configured Callback URL in the same way that we do for an actual user reward.
Custom parameters (pub0 ... pub9) are included in the callback since they must be sent along from your integration in the request.
