MediaAlpha
Real-time bidding exchange - the fastest route to carrier offers you cannot access directly
Visão geral
MediaAlpha runs a real-time bidding exchange where carriers bid for each individual lead as it is generated. For publishers this solves the access problem: instead of negotiating with each carrier, you plug into one integration and receive bids from many. The trade-off is that you give up direct relationships and the margin that comes with them.
Pontos fortes
- One integration gives access to many carriers
- Real-time bidding usually beats static CPL floors
- Faster onboarding than direct carrier programmes
Contras
- Bids fluctuate with demand, so revenue is less predictable
- You lose the direct relationship and cannot negotiate
- Quality scoring is strict and opaque

Como pedir a comissão
- Apply as a publisher and describe your traffic source and vertical.
- Complete the integration - typically a ping/post API or a hosted form.
- Set a floor price per lead so you do not sell below your cost of traffic.
- Monitor the bid landscape weekly; it moves with carrier demand and seasonality.
- $100 minimum, Net 30.
The realistic first stop for most new publishers in this category. You will earn less per lead than a negotiated direct deal, but you will be earning in weeks rather than months, and the data you collect tells you which carriers to approach directly later.
Restrições de tráfego
