Summary
Kiip is opening up a unique traffic source on mobile and offering five affiliates the opportunity to beta test the platform while it is closed to public signups. You'll receive direct campaign management and support from Kiip.
What is Kiip?
Kiip is a mobile rewards network. We reward moments of achievement in mobile apps. So a free propel sample after you finish your run, an AMex gift card when you finish your to-do list, or a free MP3 when you beat level 5 in a game.
How is this different than an ad network? No impression is simply an impression, it is the presentation of a reward — a free trial, product discount, or exclusive content. Our traffic is higher quality than any other mobile network. Users expect quality with Kiip, and as a result we see CTRs between 4%-15%. Crazy performance for mobile.

Offers that perform well on Kiip
Free trials of high-quality subscription services dominate. Hulu, Shoemint, Netflix, etc.
Mobile apps that can give sign-up offers also perform very well — think $10 off your first Uber ride.
Commerce companies that have mobile-optimized sites have shown returns as well. Credits and discounts work best ($5 credit, 25% off, etc).
Volume
All measures are Monthly Active Users. We value unique monthly users over impressions because a user will only see your offer 3 times. Why? If they don't redeem the offer after the third impression, there is less than a 0.1% it will be redeemed. It's a waste of impressions.

Key Benefits
1. We are not driving exchange traffic, all of our traffic is from the Kiip network. Direct to the source of high-quality mobile app users.
2. Users engage with rewards at vastly higher rates than mobile banner ads
3. Premium in-app placements
Advertising Standards
1. We are first and foremost a rewards network that users actually like. People post about loving Kiip rewards. No one posts about loving mobile banner ads. We will not tolerate anything that ruins that user experience.
2. We do not reveal exactly which apps you're placed in. We do show you which genres you are placed in (Games, Fitness, Productivity, Food/Drink, etc).

To Apply
Email cole@kiip.me with information on what offers you're interested in running. We currently have space for five affiliates but will be continuing to open up the platform so feel free to check in regularly.
Feel free to ask any questions here, we’re around to answer them. Looking forward to working with some STMers!
One thing that's worth clarifying is the user flow once a user has clicked on the offer. Our standard ad unit pre-pops the user's email and then the offer is then emailed to them. The benefits of this flow are that you can run web offers (we've seen web-based stuff perform really well), and users can claim the reward at a later time when they're ready. Mobile users typically have short attention spans so for a free trial signup or something along those lines this flow can work better.
BUT, if you're running a mobile offer, it may make more sense to direct link. We can work with you to make sure we're using an ad unit appropriate to the offer.
That looks interesting , sign me up!
