Trafficsource Review: InPusher

This is a pretty short "review"

Beginning of November I submitted my credit card details to InPusher to test their traffic.

Since then I see this



On 11/17/2021 I contacted them through Skype and asked if they can check it but so far I didn´t receive a reply.

Long story short, no test possible.

Should something change so that I can run some traffic there I will update the thread with a longer review.

Is anyone of you running traffic with InPusher?

In case that anyone is running campaigns there successful I would try to contact them again, otherwise I will just wait and see what happens

Luckily there are enough other platforms out there so the next reviews are already in the works.

Never heard of them before.
Usually before trying an ad network, i prefer to talk to their manager or check how many likes/followers do they have on their social media platform. And do other random checks.

How much money did you end up losing?

Also, i believe that there are only few genuine push ad networks, other networks just re-sell the traffic of other networks. Or they have mixed traffic.
Because it takes lot of efforts to collect millions of push subscribers. But nowadays, every alternate week a new push ad network is coming into existence.

Nothing because my credit card isn't approved.

Sure, many/most networks sell external traffic but that's no problem in my opinion.

Just because it's no in-house traffic it doesn't mean that the traffic is bad.

Additionally different platforms can also have different features for example for targeting, bid options and so on.

Where I make a difference is when platforms just use whitelabels of other DSPs.

For example there are several platforms that use AdMachine/platform.io whitelabels and they all have 95%+ the same supply, there I just stick with Richads.

It's definitely not a good sign when a network takes over 3 weeks and STILL hasn't approved/declined an application.

Please do keep us posted @twinaxe! Looking forward to your other reviews! Thanks for the massive effort in doing the leg work!!

Yup, doesn't help much to increase the trust level

Looks like a network to pass on... I'm wondering how many times this is going to happen while you go through the large list of networks you have collected How many was that again, 90+?

It´s not only this, there are few other things that can go wrong as well

For example many Russian networks only accept payments through Webmoney or other payment solutions that I don´t have.

How many was that again, 90+?
Yup, 90+ but rather more like 200 or 300

true, most Russian network only have capitalist or webmoney.
And webmoney only allows card top-up of $1000/month.

After the $1000/month limit passes out, you run out of options.

And capitalist doesn't allow top up using debit card.

Also you end up losing 4-5% in taxes, when you use these both.

Yes, that limits the options a bit but luckily enough few sources still offer Paypal when you ask for it

Oh yes, the payment options are a limiting factor too, but with 200 or 300 networks... there have to be some good ones, can't wait to see what you find out

True, there have to be some good ones.

I have tests for few platforms running but with mixed results.

New review will follow the next days.
