In this first section, we provide the top of the funnel for your Sources/Ad Networks Costs and outcomes (Impressions, Clicks) for the given time period. This data is pulled directly through our integrations.

Graphs and Tables
Ad Network Cost over Time
In this graph we visualise your Source Costs, we do that by displaying each Source Cost along with Total Cost over chosen time frame. This graph helps to understand which Sources you spend the most money on. Use the Aggregate filter to breakdown the X-Axis as you wish e.g. (day, week, month).
Note: You can select which Sources to hide/display by simply clicking the boxes on the top right corner.
Paid metrics - Over Time
We provide a table listing the Cost and Performance metrics of each specific source/Ad Network. This analysis is used for investigating individual Ad Networks as well as comparing their performance in relation to each other.
Note: Deals and Value are not included in this table, to find these metrics go to the ROAS dashboard.
