I think it didn't have any potietial so I think to pause traffic for now.
What do you think?
Does this offer have any potential?

The offer is converting so it's not a total loser and shows potential.

In such cases, it's often about finding the right funnel ... so the AD, LP and the offer variation. It's virtually impossible to hit it all right at the first attempt.

How many landing pages did you test? Did you do any changes during the testing process? And what LPs are these, ripped from somewhere, provided by the network ... ?

You went from 6 cents to the double amount straight away, I do not raise bids that fast ... might be worth it to test lower as well. Or higher, to see if the more expensive traffic would also convert better.

There is a lot you can do, the good part is that the offer is able to sell, so there might be a way to make it work.

Hello matuloo,
I am using lander provided by Network. I tested 4 landers and 10 teasers.
I will keep in my mind your suggestion about bidding. I will test new funnels and will update on my new follow along.

I am not asking exact amount but from your experience how much test budget do I need to make this campaign green?

That's really not possible to tell ... it can still fail, there are no guarantees that you can actually make it green.

As a general rule, you need higher budgets to make native work, that's something that pretty much everyone will tell you. I'm not a native expert myself, but based on what successful native affiliates have told me ... $1000-$2000 can be needed to properly test an offer/campaign on native and it often takes $10k or more to crack the code for good.

If you want to go on with this, you need to work on the LPs, since you're using those from the network ... as maybe dozens of others before you. By teasers, you mean ads at the traffic source, right? 10 is nothing too... when I was starting, I tested literally hundreds of ads in order to become profitable.
