# Unity Monetization
|
||
Created by the leading mobile game engine, the Unity Ads SDK provides a comprehensive monetization framework for your game, whether you develop in Unity, XCode, or Android Studio. It streamlines ads, in-app purchasing, and analytics, using cutting-edge machine learning to maximize your revenue while maintaining a great player experience. Getting started is simple.
|
||
|
||
This page illustrates the journey towards maximizing your revenue with Unity Ads. Follow step by step, or jump to the integration step that best fits your stage of development.
|
||
|
||
## Preparation
|
||
New to Unity Ads? Take care of these basics before implementation:
|
||
|
||
1. Download and import the latest Unity Ads Asset package or SDK: [Unity (C#)](https://assetstore.unity.com/packages/add-ons/services/unity-ads-66123) | [iOS (Objective-C)](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/unity-ads-ios/releases) | [Android (Java)](https://github.com/Unity-Technologies/unity-ads-android/releases)
|
||
2. [Register](https://id.unity.com/) a Unity developer account on the developer dashboard.
|
||
3. Use the [developer dashboard](https://operate.dashboard.unity3d.com) to configure [Placements](MonetizationPlacements.md) for monetization content.
|
||
4. Review our [best practices guide](MonetizationResourcesBestPracticesAds.md), complete with case studies, to better understand your monetization strategy before diving in.
|
||
|
||
## Implementation
|
||
Integration may vary, depending on your development platform.
|
||
|
||
1. Integrate Unity Ads using the `Advertisements` API: [Unity (C#)](MonetizationBasicIntegrationUnity.md) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationBasicIntegrationIos.md) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationBasicIntegrationAndroid.md)
|
||
2. Expand your basic ads integration:
|
||
* Reward players for watching ads: [Unity (C#)](MonetizationBasicIntegrationUnity.md#implementing-rewarded-ads) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationBasicIntegrationIos.md#implementing-rewarded-ads) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationBasicIntegrationAndroid.md#implementing-rewarded-ads)
|
||
* Incorporate banner ads: [Unity (C#)](MonetizationBannerAdsUnity.md) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationBannerAdsIos.md) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationBannerAdsAndroid.md)
|
||
* Incorporate augmented reality (AR) ads: [Unity (C#)](MonetizationArAdsUnity.md) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationArAdsIos.md) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationArAdsAndroid.md)
|
||
3. If your game uses in-app purchasing, integrate [IAP Promo](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/IAPPromo.html):
|
||
* If you use Unity IAP: [Unity (C#) ](https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/IAPPromoIntegration.html)
|
||
* If you use a custom IAP implementation: [Unity (C#)](MonetizationPurchasingIntegrationUnity.md) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationPurchasingIntegrationIos.md) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationPurchasingIntegrationAndroid.md)
|
||
* iOS and Android developers can optionally customize Promo assets: [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationNativePromoIos.md) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationNativePromoAndroid.md)
|
||
4. Convert your Ads and Promo Placements into Personalized Placements to optimize monetization with machine learning: [Unity (C#)](MonetizationPersonalizedPlacementsUnity.md) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationPersonalizedPlacementsIos.md) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationPersonalizedPlacementsAndroid.md)
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Manage, analyze, optimize
|
||
Beyond implementation, Unity empowers you to fine-tune your strategy:
|
||
|
||
* The Unity [developer dashboard](https://operate.dashboard.unity3d.com/) allows you to [manage your ads implementation](MonetizationResourcesDashboardGuide.md). Use the dashboard's [robust metrics tools](MonetizationResourcesStatistics.md) to adopt a data-driven approach to fine-tuning your monetization strategy.
|
||
* Learn how to [filter your ads](MonetizationResourcesDashboardGuide.md#ad-content-filters) to target your audience.
|
||
* Don’t miss out on revenue; be sure to [add your Store Details](MonetizationResourcesDashboardGuide.md#platforms) once your game is live.
|
||
* Implement Standard Events to help Unity’s machine learning model optimize monetization based on your game’s economy. [Unity (C#)](MonetizationPersonalizedPlacementsUnity.md#implementing-standard-events) | [iOS (Objective-C)](MonetizationPersonalizedPlacementsIos.md#implementing-standard-events) | [Android (Java)](MonetizationPersonalizedPlacementsAndroid.md#implementing-standard-events)
|
||
* Sign up for [automated payouts](MonetizationResourcesRevenueAndPayment.md#automated-payouts).
