Why were my documents rejected?

A common reason for being rejected?
The information on your documents doesn't match the information you've added on your "Basic Info" page.
Before uploading documents, make sure the info matches!

What documents do I need?
After you generate your first 50€ from your traffic, your cashier can be unblocked. This means you'll be able to upload your documents.
Check the documents you'll need:
Private affiliate: upload a document proving your identity (it can be your identity card or a passport) as well as another official document to serve as proof of residence and which includes your name (e.g electricity bill).
Company affiliate: upload a document which proves your identity (it can be your identity device or a passport) and a certificate of incorporation, showing a visible, clear VAT/Tax number, depending on the country where your company is based.
Not sure about which docs you should be uploading?

What are the best segments you can bet on?
It all depends on your strategy, budget and traffic source.
If you’re starting out in media buying and have a limited budget, you should start with large volume/low payout segments.
These tend to be less competitive, giving you the opportunity to quickly gather a lot of reliable data.
This means you can optimize your campaigns sooner, find those sweet gold mines, and get your campaigns in the green!
You can get an idea about the current top segments on your account’s opportunities section.
Bear in mind that the actual EPC always depends on your quality of traffic and ways of promoting.
You'll be able to dig into granular segments by playing with the Grouping Filters we provide.
In order to get the best tips on hot segments for your traffic, get in touch with your Mobidea Account Manager or our Affiliate Service: affiliate-service@mobidea.com
What is a Single Offer?
A Single Offer is a link which redirects the user to the lander of a specific product.
On Mobidea, we've got Single Offers from several verticals - Games, Antivirus, Sweeps, Nutra, Dating, Adult, etc.
Single Offers are useful when a traffic source doesn’t allow a rotator and requires a direct link.
Moreover, you can make your own split test of Single Offers and check which one works best for your traffic.
In order to promote the Single Offer, you need to apply for it, referring your traffic source.
Then, the Mobidea Crew will review your application and give you feedback within 1-2 days.
In case the offer is approved and later disabled, we'll send you a notification email so you can choose another offer to replace it.
Are you afraid of not getting an important email notification and therefore fail to switch off traffic in time?
No worries!
Just activate the Safety Fallback which will redirect your traffic to another offer from the Smartlink. This means you won’t lose your traffic!
Make sure you don't deactivate your email notifications!
These preferences can be managed on your account page. Check them by mousing over your profile photo.
How long does it take for you to review an offer?
We do our best for you to access our offers as quickly as possible! Therefore, it usually only takes 1-2 business days for an offer application to be reviewed.
What is a Rotation?
You can create your rotation from scratch or choose a template already used on any other of your campaigns.
You're always free to update that template, which will affect all the campaigns that are using this rotation.
You can also save this template as a new one.
Rules are a rotation's highest level.
Once you create the campaign, you'll have one Default rule without conditions, where you can add Paths, which include Landers and Offers.
If you want to add custom rules with your own conditions, you just need to click on the “new rule” button.
Each custom rule must have conditions set, and you can do what you've done in the default rule in order to configure its paths.
All your paths will have the possibility to have landers and offers.
If you prefer to send the user directly to the offer, you can select the "Direct link" option.
You're free to add as many landers and offers on each path as you'd like, and also define their weight!
Remember that Landers with multiple Offers work with a fixed number of offers.
Check the Landers section to learn more about how it works.
If you have more than one path, you can also set the weight for each path.
The weight will define how Mobidea will split the traffic among all the options you've added.
For example: if you have two Offers with a weight of 50/50 on each of them, Mobidea will allocate 50% of your traffic to each offer.
On the other hand, if you want to send more traffic to a specific Path, Offer or Lander, you just have to increase its weight.
When choosing the Offers to promote, we'll show you the list of all Offers approved on your account and all the activated Smartlinks.
In case you want to have more Offers to choose from, open the Offers Directory Page and apply for more Offers.
Once approved, those Offers will appear on the Offers list.
Once you're finished, you'll save the rotation and generate your campaign URL.
Use that URL to promote your campaign and wait to see the magic happen!
