Very low fillrate, nice eCPM but it’s for regions where adMob probably also has high eCPM. So it’s hard to tell. It was definitely worth it in the begininning, now, I don’t know.

I have a bunch of apps on amazon. Initially, I used their SDK for ads but the fill-rate was abysmal. Also, the download rate is terrible compared to GP. I switched all the ads from Amazon to Admob and it was ‘less’ bad but still only 10 % revenue of GP. Ive now given up on Amazon as a source of revenue.

Amazon ads in a nutshell (my personal experience only):

  • They serves ads only in Tier 1 countries like US, Canada, UK, Australia, Germany etc. (no ads at all in Tier 2 and Tier 3 countries), so the fill rates can be quite low (20%-80%). If the majority of your audience is from Tier 1 countries, your fill rates can stay 95+%.
  • Average eCPM is about 25% lower, than on AdMob.
  • Amazon Ads work best on Amazon Appstore, but my free apps never performed very well there. I’m sitting at #1 in a certain category and still only get a fraction of DL’s from Google Play, where my apps is ranked far lower.

Hope this helps.

I had earn thousands from Amazon, and I used their ad as primary, admob as secondary. Bad fill rate, good eCPM for my apps.
