Rewarded Advertising: Engaging User Acquisition

Rewarded advertising has become a powerful tool for mobile app developers and digital marketers looking to engage users while driving meaningful volume to their affiliate programs. Rewarded campaigns engage users by providing incentives or rewards for completing specific tasks, such as installing and playing game apps, completing surveys, watching video ads, or engaging with various products or services. By offering users something in return, rewarded advertising creates a mutually beneficial interaction between users, advertisers, and publishers.

PSMTrack is uniquely positioned to help mobile app developers and other advertisers build and scale effective rewarded campaigns. Founded by Philip Shapiro, the former CEO of Adscend Media (2020 – 2023) - an industry pioneer in the Rewarded Advertising space – PSMTrack works with the best quality rewards publishers and networks to provide scalable engaged user acquisition solutions. From offerwalls, to play-to-earn apps, to rewarded video ad partnerships, PSMTrack helps businesses navigate the nuances and complexities of rewarded advertising with scalable, quality-conscience, and profitable solutions.


Understanding Rewarded Advertising

Rewarded advertising provides users with incentives for interacting with specific content or completing particular tasks. Unlike traditional advertisements, rewarded ads give the user/viewer a choice: engage with the ad content and receive a reward, or skip it. This approach uniquely drives high intent engagement and retention rates, as users are motivated to earn rewards.

Typical rewarded campaigns include:

  • Installing and playing game apps
  • Users receive rewards for downloading a game and reaching a specific level or achievement.
  • Completing surveys
  • Users earn rewards for sharing their opinions and providing valuable data for brands.
  • Watching video ads
  • Users voluntarily watch video ads to gain in-game currency, lives, or other benefits.
  • Engaging with products or services
  • Users may receive rewards for signing up for a service, shopping online, or completing a variety of different online offers.

    Popular Rewarded Ad Models


  • Offerwalls
  • Offerwalls are interactive ad units that display a wide variety of offers to their userbase. Typically, an offerwall company will partner with many 3rd party publishers that utilize the offerwall technology within their apps or websites, each allowing users to earn rewards upon completion. Users choose from a list of tasks, such as downloading apps, completing quizzes, completing surveys, or signing up for a variety of services. This model which enlists a wide range of earning opportunities makes offerwalls highly engaging and user-friendly, allowing users to select offers based on personal interest or preference.
  • In-App Rewarded Ads
  • These are full-screen ads that appear at natural pauses or transition points within the app, such as between levels in a game. Interstitial ads are highly engaging due to their full-screen nature and can generate higher revenue compared to static banners. Often, interstitial video ads are skippable, thus offering lower CPM’s than Rewarded Video Ads, but the amount of inventory across all ad networks for interstitial ads is tremendous. In-app rewarded ads provide app developers with an effective way to monetize free-to-play games and applications without relying solely on in-app purchases and interstitial ads. By giving users a way to earn rewards through ad engagement, developers can generate revenue while enhancing user retention and satisfaction.
  • Other Rewarded Ad Models
  • Beyond offerwalls and in-app ads, there are additional models in rewarded advertising. These can include interactive ads, such as playable ads, where users try out a game before installing it, or native rewarded ads that integrate seamlessly into the app’s interface. These models work by offering users a smooth experience that feels integrated into the app, increasing engagement and the likelihood of conversion.
