LiveIntent is designed with your goals in mind. Our prediction engine understands that brand advertisers might have slightly different objectives than a performance advertiser would have, and allows you tailor campaigns to your goals. 

 

CPM campaigns can bid in the real time auction as 1st or 2nd Price.

These campaigns will prioritize spending the entirety of the budget allocated, while performing the best that it can. In this pricing model, if your campaign wins inventory, you pay the amount of your bid. 

The following types of optimization are available:

Second price campaigns are goal oriented, optimizing your CPM to a specific CPA, CPC or CPM goal, and may stop spending budget if it is missing the goal. In this pricing model, if your campaign wins inventory, you will pay $0.01 above the second highest bid in the auction.

 

• Target CPC optimizes your campaign towards your specified CPC goal
• Target CPA optimizes your campaign towards your specified CPA goal
• Target CPM optimizes your campaign towards your specified CPM goal

For example, bidding 2nd price with a $10 maximum CPM and CPA goal of $1, our engine will attempt to find inventory that will convert at $1, yet keep the spend under $10 CPM.

 

Please note, altering the goal during a live campaign is not advised.
