CPI(Cost per Install)


What does CPI mean?
CPI campaigns are specifically intended for mobile apps. This metric can’t be
applied to any other areas of your business.

With CPI campaigns, digital ads are placed to drive installs to a specific mobile
app. Businesses are then charged a fixed rate or bid rate whenever the app is
installed.

For example,if you booked a campaign to have your app installed 800 times at a
CPI rate of $8 then each install would cost you $8 and in total you would pay
$6,400.

**Payments are triggered on installs, not on users getting to an installation page.
