Pocketmath Mobile RTB Anyone?
Anyone have experience yet with www.pocketmath.com ?
I like the mobile RTBs for flexibility, but the 20% fee seems a little steep?

Anybody using this? What is this 20% fees thing? Do they deduct 20% of the deposited amount?

It looks like they are transparant about the fee which you pay for using their platform.
No Sitescout, Decisive and other DSP's are not for free
! We have no clue about how much we pay to these networks. My guess is that 20% if cheap and that 30% is more realistic with most.
Does anyone know?

Sitescout keeps the bigger % ?
In fact their min. CPM is 0.10 but for the same exact placement I win less impressions compared to Decisive (where I'm bidding less than 0.10)

Who knows? We have no clue what we are paying to these companies. Perhaps it's a simple matter of asking them.

20% is pretty standard, just that other RTBs don't disclose that.

If 20% is standard/hidden then I don't have any qualm about paying it up especially because these guys are transparent about it.
Any feedback from guys those who are already using this?

I tested it and the platform is worse than sitescout for example, it's more basic and has less options to optimize but on the other hand, for similar bids, we got more traffic than at sitescout.
So in resume, more traffic but harder to optimize it, that can give you volume at a lower ROI.
I recommend you to test it anyway, it all depends a lot from each media buyer, the products you push and the optimization you use.

I just opened an account here. Warning for others - don't use this platform for following reasons:
- User interface is not good. Simple things are done in most complicated manner
- You can have only one creative in a campaign. If you want to test dozens of creatives, you need to create dozens of campaigns(what they call as orders). lmao.
- The worst part is - the moment you assign a budget to a campaign(which has only one creative BTW), your account balance is reduced by such amount. What it means is if you want to test dozens of creatives by assigning $100 to each campaign then be prepared to shell out $1200 to start with else FO
- Optimization is real pain.
- Reporting is rudimentary. The app is incapable of showing the reports online, it just downloads a CSV for each view
- Funding your account is another pain. You have to submit a ticket. Then they will send you an invoice. You make a payment against that invoice and send them a mail stating the same. Then they will credit your account.
Wish I knew all these things before hand, it would have saved my money. I hope it will help others.

Yes, as I said the platform is way worse than others, but volume is good if you can work with their platform limitations.
