Integrate Mintegral with bidding (Beta)

This guide shows you how to use Google Mobile Ads SDK to load and display ads from Mintegral using mediation , covering both waterfall and bidding integrations. It covers how to add Mintegral to an ad unit's mediation configuration, and how to integrate the Mintegral SDK and adapter into an Android app.

Supported integrations and ad formats

The mediation adapter for Mintegral has the following capabilities:

Integration
Bidding
Waterfall
Formats
App Open
Banner
Interstitial
Rewarded
Rewarded Interstitial
Native
1 Bidding integration is in open beta.

Requirements

  • Android API level 23 or higher
  • [For bidding]: To integrate all supported ad formats in bidding, use Mintegral adapter 16.5.91.1 or higher ( latest version recommended )

You will need your Mintegral Reporting API Key for setting up your Ad Manager ad unit ID. Navigate to Account> API Tools. Take note of your Skeyand Secret.

Update your app-ads.txt

Authorized Sellers for Apps app-ads.txt is an IAB Tech Lab initiative that helps ensure your app ad inventory is only sold through channels you've identified as authorized. To prevent a significant loss in ad revenue, you'll need to implement an app-ads.txt file. If you haven't done so already, create an app-ads.txt file for Ad Manager .

To implement app-ads.txt for Mintegral, see How app-Ads.txt Can Help Fight Ad Fraud .

Step 2: Set up Mintegral demand in Ad Manager UI

Sign in to your Ad Manager account .

Add Mobvista/Mintegral to GDPR and US state regulations ad partners list

Follow the steps in European regulations settings and US state regulations settings to add Mobvista/Mintegralto the European and US state regulations ad partners list in the Ad Manager UI.

Step 3: Import the Mintegral SDK and adapter

In your project-level settings.gradle.kts file, add the following repositories:

  dependencyResolutionManagement 
  
 { 
  
 repositories 
  
 { 
  
 google 
 () 
  
 mavenCentral 
 () 
  
  maven 
  
 { 
  
 url 
  
 = 
  
 uri 
 ( 
 "https://dl-maven-android.mintegral.com/repository/mbridge_android_sdk_oversea" 
 ) 
  
 } 
  
 } 
 } 
 

Then, in your app-level build.gradle.kts file, add the following implementation dependencies and configurations. Use the latest versions of the Mintegral SDK and adapter:

  dependencies 
  
 { 
  
 implementation 
 ( 
 "com.google.android.gms:play-services-ads:24.5.0" 
 ) 
  
  implementation 
 ( 
 "com.google.ads.mediation:mintegral:16.9.91.1" 
 ) 
 } 
 

Manual integration

  1. To include the Mintegral SDK, go to Mintegral SDK for Android .

  2. Navigate to the Mintegral adapter artifacts on Google's Maven Repository. Select the latest version, download the Mintegral adapter's .aar file, and add it to your project.

Step 4: Implement privacy settings on Mintegral SDK

To comply with Google EU User Consent Policy , you must make certain disclosures to your users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the UK, and Switzerland, and obtain their consent for the use of cookies or other local storage where legally required, and for the collection, sharing, and use of personal data for ads personalization. This policy reflects the requirements of the EU ePrivacy Directive and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). You are responsible for verifying consent is propagated to each ad source in your mediation chain. Google is unable to pass the user's consent choice to such networks automatically.

The Mintegral SDK includes the setConsentStatus method to pass consent information to the Mintegral SDK.

The following sample code shows how to pass consent information to the Mintegral SDK. These options must be set before you initialize Google Mobile Ads SDK to ensure they get forwarded properly to the Mintegral SDK.

Java

  import 
  
 com.mbridge.msdk.out.MBridgeSDKFactory 
 // ... 
 MBridgeSDK 
  
 sdk 
  
 = 
  
 MBridgeSDKFactory 
 . 
 getMBridgeSDK 
 (); 
 sdk 
 . 
 setConsentStatus 
 ( 
 context 
 , 
  
 MBridgeConstans 
 . 
 IS_SWITCH_ON 
 ); 
 

Kotlin

  import 
  
 com.mbridge.msdk.out.MBridgeSDKFactory 
 // ... 
 var 
  
 sdk 
  
 = 
  
 MBridgeSDKFactory 
 . 
 getMBridgeSDK 
 () 
 sdk 
 . 
 setConsentStatus 
 ( 
 context 
 , 
  
 MBridgeConstans 
 . 
 IS_SWITCH_ON 
 ) 
 

See Mintegral's privacy documentation for more information.

US states privacy laws

US states privacy laws require giving users the right to opt out of the "sale" of their "personal information" (as the law defines those terms), with the opt-out offered through a prominent "Do Not Sell My Personal Information" link on the "selling" party's homepage. The US states privacy laws compliance guide offers the ability to enable restricted data processing for Google ad serving, but Google is unable to apply this setting to each ad network in your mediation chain. Therefore, you must identify each ad network in your mediation chain that may participate in the sale of personal information and follow guidance from each of those networks to ensure compliance.

The Mintegral SDK includes setDoNotTrackStatus method to pass consent information to the Mintegral SDK.

The following sample code shows how to pass consent information to the Mintegral SDK. If you need to call this method, call it after initializing Google Mobile Ads SDK but before requesting ads through Google Mobile Ads SDK.

Java

  import 
  
 com.mbridge.msdk.out.MBridgeSDKFactory 
 // ... 
 MBridgeSDK 
  
 mBridgeSDK 
  
 = 
  
 MBridgeSDKFactory 
 . 
 getMBridgeSDK 
 (); 
 mBridgeSDK 
 . 
 setDoNotTrackStatus 
 ( 
 false 
 ); 
 

Kotlin

  import 
  
 com.mbridge.msdk.out.MBridgeSDKFactory 
 // ... 
 var 
  
 mBridgeSDK 
  
 = 
  
 MBridgeSDKFactory 
 . 
 getMBridgeSDK 
 () 
 mBridgeSDK 
 . 
 setDoNotTrackStatus 
 ( 
 false 
 ) 
 

See Mintegral's privacy documentation for more information.

Step 5: Add required code

No additional code is required for Mintegral integration.

Step 6: Test your implementation

Enable test ads

Make sure you register your test device for Ad Manager.

To get Mintegral test ads for banners, interstitials, rewarded and native ad formats, Mintegral recommends using the App Keys, App IDs, Placement IDs and Ad Unit IDs provided in the Mintegral Test ID page .

Verify test ads

To verify that you are receiving test ads from Mintegral, enable single ad source testing in ad inspector using the Mintegral (Bidding) and Mintegral (Waterfall)ad source(s).

Optional steps

Add Mintegral to CCPA ad partners list

Follow the steps in CCPA settings to add Mintegralto the CCPA ad partners list in the Ad Manager UI.

Native ads

Ad rendering

The Mintegral adapter returns its native ads as NativeAd objects. It populates the following fields for a NativeAd .

Field Assets always included by Mintegral adapter
Headline
Image 1
Body
Icon
Call to action
Star rating
Store
Price
Advertiser

1 The Mintegral adapter does not provide direct access to the main image asset for its native ads. Instead, the adapter populates the MediaView with a video or an image.

Error codes

If the adapter fails to receive an ad from Mintegral, you can check the underlying error from the ad response using ResponseInfo.getAdapterResponses() under the following classes:

 com.mbridge.msdk
com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral.MintegralMediationAdapter 

Here are the codes and accompanying messages thrown by the Mintegral adapter when an ad fails to load:

Error code Domain Reason
101
com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral Invalid server parameters (e.g. Missing app ID or placement ID).
102
com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral The requested ad size does not match a Mintegral supported banner size.
103
com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral Missing or invalid bid response.
104
com.google.ads.mediation.mintegral Mintegral SDK returned a no fill error.
