Live Streaming

Stream Ad Overview

Each streaming channel in the Live Streaming plugin has its own Ads & Monetization section. This lets you run channel-specific ads, helping you tailor monetization for different audiences or content types.


What is the Stream Ad Module?

The Stream Ad Module is a built-in monetization system designed to integrate advertisements directly into the video streaming experience. It enables you to display various types of ads, such as video ads or custom HTML banners—within the player to help you generate revenue or promote content.

This module supports advanced ad management features like:

  • Ad scheduling (Pre-roll, Mid-roll, Post-roll)
  • Skippable ads
  • Custom ad duration and branding
  • Call-to-action (CTA) elements
  • Multiple ad formats (VAST, HTML)

Current Scope

As of now, the Stream Ad Module is available only for the video player. This means all ads, whether video or HTML, are displayed within the video player interface.

Other sections of the site or page layouts (e.g., banners, sidebars, etc.) are not included in this module. However, enhancements may be introduced in future updates.


What’s Possible with Stream Ads?

With the current functionality, you can:

  • Display targeted ads based on when and how the video is played
  • Use global ad settings for consistent ad delivery across all videos
  • Choose between full-screen, companion banner, or overlay ads
  • Set ad skip logic, ad timing, and branding assets for each ad
  • Manage all ad assets from a unified admin panel
