Deal Details

Deal details define the terms of a Private Marketplace deal, and Basis uses this information to make sure that the tactics using a deal are compatible with it.

Deal details are user-input information and may not always accurately reflect the reality of the deal. Review a deal's analytics to learn more about its performance.

When viewing a deal's details, you can add it to your organization's deal groups by selecting Add deal to groups.

Review the table below for information about deal details.

Price

The price of the deal, as agreed upon with the exchange or publisher.

Non-guaranteed deals: The fixed or floor price, depending on the chosen price type:

  • Private Auction: A private auction deal has a floor price and awards impressions to the highest bidder.

    Many deals, especially Run of Network (RON) or Run of Exchange (ROE) deals, don't have a single floor price because these deals run on a wide variety of inventory where the value may vary. Depending on the domain, placement, and other factors, floor prices differ from bid request to bid request, so the Price of the deal may represent the lowest floor of the deal’s inventory.

  • Fixed Price: A deal with a fixed price has one price (CPM) for all impressions.

Price is optional for non-guaranteed deals.

Guaranteed deals: The fixed price (CPM) of the deal. The price for guaranteed deals must be Price (CPM) = (Media Cost ÷ Impressions) x 1000.

Price is required for guaranteed deals.
