3. Admarkt bidding and minimum click price.
Admarkt uses cost-per-click pricing model that allows individual advertisers to bid and the highest bid will be displayed first. There are however a few important things to note about how Admarkt bidding works:
You pay the full bid price, if you've bid € 0,02 and win, your costs will be based on the full € 0,02 regardless of what the next highest bid was.
The price you pay is actually based on the number of internal clicks in Marktplaats before the customer "clicked-out" on your ad. For example, if your bid is € 0,02 and the customer has made 3 clicks in Marktplaats before clicking on your ad, you'll pay € 0,06 (3 clicks x € 0,02).
Each product category has a minimum cost per click bid.
The minimum click price is an important aspect of getting your product ads displayed on Marktplaats. If the feed you provide to Admarkt doesn't have a bid that meets the minimum, your ads won't be displayed.
When you map a product to one of Admarkt's product categories, Adcurve will automatically assign that product the minimum bid. You can always manually adjust this, which we'll cover in next section, however if you adjust the bid lower than the minimum, we'll adjust it back up to the meet the minimum to ensure that the ad is still displayed.
4. Adjusting the cost per click bid
Bids for Admarkt can be adjusted within AdCurve by assigning a bidding group to products. More information on exactly how to do this can be found in our bidding groups article.
Something to keep in mind when setting bids for Admarkt is that you pay for the internal clicks the customer makes before clicking on your ad. This is on average around 7 clicks, so, if your bid is € 0,02 you'll pay on average around € 0,14 for each click on your ad.
5. Uploading the AdCurve feed to Admarkt (Legacy support)
This is applicable only to shops using a traditional product feed, rather than Admarkt's API. If you're unsure of which system your shop is using, you are most likely using the API to update products.
If you know that your shop needs to use a product feed, you will need to upload this feed on your Admarkt account.
The feed location can be copied from the Feed tab on the right hand panel in Ad Management.
The feed location then needs to be added to your Admarkt account using the following link:
It can take Admarkt up to 48 hours to process the feed and get your ads displayed. If this doesn't happen in a timely manner, please contact Admarkt support for additional assistance.
