Setting up AdMob

dimsdale

Hi, I'm not selling many games at a 1$, so I guess it's time to go with the play for free model and add in adverts.

Only working in iOS at the moment.

I have an old AdMob account from way back, so will stick with them. (Unless you guys think there is something better). Things look like they have changed a lot (since the last Cook Book update) or more likely I have forgotten a lot. lol

Can I get a little help with filling out the form on the GS end please?

AdMob only gave me one App ID number. I wish to run Interstitial Ad (I think) at the end of each game cycle. Do I just put my "AdMob ID" number in the "Legacy AdMob Ad Unit" and "Interstitial Ad Unit" boxes?

Can i test if this is working within TestFlight?

Thanks :)

maybe the other Advert service might be easier?

Hmm, I just created a new Interstitial ad unit, and at the end of the process Admob showed me both an app and ad unit ID...can you send me a pm with what you're seeing so I can guide you accordingly?

You can ignore "Legacy AdMob Ad Unit"

Everything else should be available on the Admob Console

Here is an updated copy of the cookbook for future reference:
