May 2022 welcomes affiliates with mind-blowing sporting events. However, not every match or fight will return massive ad views and ROI. That’s why you’re here: to get a ready-to-use set of fixtures that will send tons of high-quality ad impressions to sports gaming offers.
Some clues to spotlight: pay attention to UFC events and the increase in traffic (mainly from the US) on streaming sites over the weekend. Don’t miss out on making a profit with the Champions League and the Europa League finals. Tennis events, including Roland Garros, will break into the affiliate world with multiple offers and colossal viewership.
Pick the event and find a suitable offer in your affiliate network. Set up a campaign in Adsterra with recommended GEO and start collecting views and clicks. If you’ve never worked with Adsterra before, start with CPM pricing, as it’s the most cost-effective while allowing for quality traffic tests. A couple of pro tips are given below the tables!

Which ad formats send loads of traffic to your offers
First comes the battle-tested Popunder. It suits perfectly both pro marketers and beginners. Traffic volumes are always impressive (over 2.2B impressions weekly on Adsterra Popunder), and you can get tons of impressions at affordable price despite the hot season.
A dark horse that seems to win all recent races is the Social Bar ad format. It takes the best from In-Page Push (comes with the format) and display ads. With over 1.7B impressions weekly and built-in template creatives, it ramps up CTRs and conversions. Creatives can be designed in seconds.
Pro tips for promoting Sports and iGaming offers
Remember about the restrictions for the US campaigns and apply to your manager for city targeting. We will set it up for your offer easily!
Pricing
CPM pricing is your top choice when launching on the SSP (self-serve platform). It’s cost-effective, allowing to embrace huge amounts of traffic and find golden nuggets.
Popunder traffic
Popunders are better to start with as they traditionally send the most abundant traffic. Remember to use pre-landers, they spice up conversions!
With pop traffic, your winning tactics will base on these hacks:
- keep an eye on the user activity peak hours; you can set a time range for the most ROI-boosting frames;
- save money with daily budget limits;
- ask your manager to distribute traffic equally within the peak hours;
- it is better not to limit the frequency in the beginning so to get more traffic and accurately optimize bids later on;
- remember to ask Adsterra managers for GEO-specific blacklists and whitelists; they can save you some hundred dollars, you know 😎
Social Bar (In-Page Push) traffic
For long-run campaigns, pick the Social Bar format. This gem has proved to convert hugely, especially when you use its new Custom Widget creatives’ templates.

You can test up to 15 Social Bar creatives to select the most powerful ones, so don’t omit A/B tests.
Look if there are “free bets” and “promo codes” in the offers and use them.
To wrap up
Are you ready to make the most of sports and iGaming offers? Then, your choice is Adsterra traffic. It will get your campaigns fully packed with quality ad views, leads and deals!
