What is InstallMonetizer?!
In a few words – the cleanest and highest paying windows based software monetization platform…ever! What this means is that; InstallMonetizer helps awesome software developers like yourself earn unbeatable revenues by offering high quality advertisers to end users during the download of your software. Installmonetizer is a Ycombinator company (W2012 batch). We are backed by the same awesome investors that backed Google, Facebook, Paypal, Yahoo, ebay, Dropbox, Twitter, Zynga and many more. Our Investors include: Ycombinator, SVAngles, Andreessen Horowitz, Transmedia Capital, FenoxVC, Yuri Milner, Netprice and Digital Garage!

Why we rock?
Simple – we help our publishers (software developers) achieve the highest take home earnings. Please note; Earnings are not the same as payouts (pay per install). Other networks try to deceive publishers by offering a very high pay per install. These advertisers don't convert well and the high rates don't translate into more money for you. Have a look at the example below. You'll see how $0.70 per install out pays $1.00 per install!

Bottom line: We make sure you get paid the highest amount for your installs!

Optimized for Earnings

Which advertisers do you work with?
This is an ever changing answer – we just have so many amazing advertising partners that we keep adding! That diverse pool includes high quality toolbar, coupon, and PC Utility advertisers Want some names? Bing, Aol, Babylon, Blekko, SweetIM and many more.

How do we generate the best revenues for publishers?
The secret sauce is in our Technology! Yes – that is the answer! Our team has built out optimization platforms for Ad Parlor (Facebook ads api platform) – yes…THE Facebook. We understand the crucial role technology plays in optimizing earnings. From a seamless integration experience to automated campaign optimization on the fly - our tech allows every publisher to squeeze the last penny from each and every install… this allows you to take home a big fat check at the end of every month.

Which countries does InstallMonetizer monetize?
We monetize almost every country on this planet!

Do I need to sign a contract?

Can I work with other networks while my revenues are sky rocketing with InstallMonetizer?
That's a tricky one! We do encourage our publishers to test the waters with other networks, simply because our results are always better. However, running two networks at the same time causes our advertisers (who we love as well) to overlap with the advertisers of the other network – the end result? The advertisers on both networks loose as the distribution eco-system is rendered useless. So, please talk to us and explain your special circumstances before running another network while utilizing Installmonetizer.

How does InstallMonetizer track my installs?
Three words – Real Time Data! Yes, our tracking system provides real time reporting for you.:) Not only are these reports transparent – they are extremely detailed. Is there a thing as too much tracking data? Absolutely not, we are always adding more depth and tools to our reports so that our publishers can analyze every bit of relevant data linked to every part of the install process - from offer screens to take home earnings and then some more. :) All this is achieved by our Industry leading tech! We use our own advanced tracking systems to provide instantaneous analytics and sub-id level statistics. Given, the highly detailed tracking data that we provide; our publishers have complete transparency into their monetization campaigns.

Why do I keep hearing eCPM again and again?
Ahh… finally! Now we are talking about the true measure of performance - eCPM!! We are a tech company and we take tremendous pride in the capabilities of our technology. So it's no surprise that our team figured out the best possible measure of any software monetization campaign – eCPM. The term in general refers to earnings per 1000 but here at InstallMonetizer's secluded lab – the term refers to the revenues a publisher earns for every 1000 times an advertiser's offer screen is shown to the end users. Due to older industry trends publishers often focus on the payout per install but what really matters? Money taken home at the end of the month :) That is exactly what eCPM's help us measure and optimize.

I see this EEPI term a lot too.
So you have created your co-bundle and are ready to monetize! Well now it's time to learn EEPI. In short, EEPI is your personal campaign optimizer. Really! It's like having a dedicated account manager watching your campaign every step of the way and optimizing the heck out of it. So what is sooo amazing about this technology? It is automatic! And… wait for it… it optimizes your campaign on the fly!! It selects the best converting offer for your software based on country… and automatically tweaks the logic based on real time conversions.

Give me my money!
Wow! So you came on board, utilized our tech and kicked some butt! Well now it's time to get paid. We issue payments on a Net 45 basis via Paypal, Bank Wire Transfer and Checks.

Why do my earnings take 3 days to show up?
Good question – and a very common one. Earnings! That is what we work for, correct? Even though our entire reporting system is real time and simply fantastic – we do have to coordinate finalized numbers with our advertisers. They too have tracking and analytic systems to ensure the highest level of transparency. Keeping that in mind, we work really hard to ensure the earnings are reflected on accounts no more than 3 days from real time reporting.

How do I see country level install information in my account?
Now we are in the territory of InstallMonetizer excellence (which is also one of our core values). Our reports are very detailed and extremely transparent. You can see country level install data by

What is a co-bundle? How does it work?
A co-bundle is the completed bundle that results from integrating our code into your installer. When a user installs your software, our co-bundle software will ask the user if they want to install one of our partner's software. If the user says 'No', then your software begins to install immediately. If the user say 'Yes', then the partner's software installs followed by installation of your software. You can control if you want your software to wait for the third party partner software, or install at the same time as the third party software.

What type of installers does InstallMonetizer work with?
Our tech team is extremely creative and sharp – therefore we can work with most installers. But it is easiest to integrate using one of the installers listed below:
NSIS
INNO
WISE
Installshield,
