No, the position of your product ad will be decided by the system itself so as to allow your campaign to get maximum return on investment.
Will I be charged some amount to place my product ad on the website/app?
You can recharge your advertising wallet with the budget you wish to invest in PLA. Minimum budget that can be loaded in the wallet is Rs 1500. You can create multiple campaigns using this budget.
For each campaign, you will have to fix the daily spend limit. You can also put a maximum spend limit on your campaigns. Money from your ad wallet will be deducted once a customer clicks on your ads (Cost-per-Click - advertising model). The rate of each click will be determined through a real-time auction.
