✅ Integration Requirements
Before integrating Magfi Ad Network, ensure your application meets these required prerequisites for optimal ad delivery and performance.
ads.txt Requirement
What is ads.txt?
The ads.txt
(Authorized Digital Sellers) standard is an IAB-approved file that helps prevent unauthorized inventory sales and domain spoofing by enabling publishers to declare who is authorized to sell their inventory.
Implementation Requirement
As a publisher integrating with Magfi, adding an ads.txt
file to your main domain is a mandatory integration step.
A valid ads.txt
file must be deployed at the root of your primary domain (e.g., yourdomain.com/ads.txt
) for continued and optimal ad serving.
Implementation Steps
- Create an
ads.txt
file with the required entries - Include Magfi's authorized seller IDs and any other ad partners you work with
- Deploy the file to your domain's root directory (accessible at
yourdomain.com/ads.txt
)
Required Configuration
For the exact configuration needed for Magfi Ad Network, refer to our reference file: ads.txt Configuration
Impact of Non-Compliance
Failure to implement a valid ads.txt
file will result in:
- Reduced ad fill rates
- Limited access to premium demand sources
- Potential complete cessation of ad delivery
Landing Page Requirement
Purpose
A functional landing page on your main domain serves as verification for advertising partners and ensures access to the full range of advertising demand.
Implementation Requirement
Your main domain must host a live webpage with substantive content that aligns with the nature of your website or application.
Implementation Details
The landing page must:
- Be accessible at your main domain (
yourdomain.com
) - Contain relevant, non-empty content related to your website, app, or services
- Provide a positive user experience with clear information
- Follow web standards for accessibility and performance
Impact of Non-Compliance
Without a proper landing page:
- Access to certain advertising demand sources will be restricted
- Your fill rates and overall revenue may be negatively impacted
- Some premium advertisers will not bid on your inventory
Content Guidelines
To ensure broad advertiser participation, your content should:
- Comply with advertising industry standards
- Not contain prohibited content (gambling, adult content, etc. without proper age-gating)
- Follow local laws and regulations in your target markets
Verification Process
After implementing these requirements, Magfi will verify your setup as part of the onboarding process. This typically includes:
- Checking for a properly configured
ads.txt
file - Verifying the existence and quality of your landing page
- Ensuring your app meets all technical requirements
