For anyone in the future that thinks ads manager sucks let me tell you this. the amount of players you get SOLEY depends on what setting you choose and you can literally choose the amount of players you want
EX: if you put 20 ad credits as a budget with 0.02 cpp then you can just do 20/0.02 = 1000 which is the amount of visits your gonna get.
SO STOP BIDDING SO HIGH

0.02 cpp = 5.7 R$ cpp with sponsors i could’ve gotten ~2 R$ cpp with a average icon and ~0.8 R$ cpp with a good icon.
and the ad’s manager sucks for way more reasons than a trash bidding system if you read other people’s posts you would realize it’s a terrible downgrade to sponsors.

while true that you could of gotten a lower cpp in the old system you also could of very easily of gotten a very high one. getting 5-10R$ cpp wasn’t uncommon with the old system. if you put a cpp of 0.01 in this new system that’s around 2.8 robux and that’s the MAX bid so roblox will probably give you around a 2 robux cpp which is good.
although I also prefer the old sposors system you have to see the upside of how this new system is a good way to get a guaranteed amount of players. My reply was mostly for those people complaining about getting no players while having put an insanely high cpp.

I’m having a very huge issue when trying to post Sponsors. Whenever I try to pay with card it never processes the ad and never runs it even when it says ‘active’. Whenever I try to change any of my personal information, it posts an error.
Here is the first AD that I posted with USD (doesnt run)
Here is the second AD that I posted with USD (also doesnt run)
Lastly, whenever I even try to change my credit card it doesnt allow me!
I hope I havent been charged for these incomplete transactions and there is nowhere for me to post these bugs!

This ruins small developers to advertise their games.

I’m having the exact same issue.
I was able to run 4 sponsors and none of them garnered any impressions:
After the fourth sponsor ended (did it ever start?) I’ve been unable to create any other sponsors:
My friend, who shares ownership of this experience through a group, is still able to create sponsors, but none of his sponsor campaigns have gained any impressions either.
We have a lot of confidence in this experience. We put a lot of effort into it and were so excited to release and start updating the game with new content. That has been put on hold for now over a week because the Ads Manager is completely broken.

It absolutely pisses me off that I can’t even use the old advertisement dashboard for (Group) games specifically.
The old advertisement and sponsoring system was a lot more better and ever since I’ve used this new “Ads Manager” (if you can even say that) it has just gone down-hill.
I’ve paid for 1 ad that disappeared not even 30 minutes after doing the purchase, and the second one says it’s Active but continues to gain no recognition by the community.
All the options are broken, deeming it unusable. This is just a waste of time, (not a scam per se because they refund you after billions of hours) don’t bother using this for now.
I don’t recommend anyone to use this at all until it’s confirmed to be fixed. If this is their corporate way to get their stock price up this certainly is not the way to do it, in fact it leads no where!
Please fix this issue ASAP, it’s getting on everyone’s nerves.

roblox is becoming more and more disillusioned, I don’t even understand why they put money into making life more difficult for the developer, aren’t they supposed to help them? Developers are literally being ripped off.

Oh this sponsor system is sickeningly expensive. If anyone remembers the old system and when ads were under 13 and user ads it was a walk in the park it was so easy! Now its so expensive no one can afford the tiny gain of 100 players it gives!
Roblox trying its best to be lazy and just leave the top games on top, and do nothing FRRR!

You’re still a terrible company, and everyone is still against removing user ads in favor of this garbage.
Just a friendly reminder.

Update: I finally got enough robux to get the minimum of 10 ad credits and spent the robux to get the ad credits, only for it to cost double what I thought it did and now I have 10 unusable ad credits. Even better!

If you recently bought 10 ad credits and don’t know how to use 10 credits try selecting daily budget instead of lifetime budget.
Update 2: I got enough robux for 10 more ad credits and got 10 more ad credits and went to make an ad and was messing with the settings and changed it from lifetime budget to daily budget and I’m able to use 10 ad credits only while the daily budget setting is selected, which I didn’t know and is the whole reason I bought 10 more ad credits.

Are you KIDDING me roblox? Were really limiting and CUTTING off search results over like 70 and 30 on mobile? (If you didn’t know roblox there are more than 70 tycoons or simulators!!!) Are we just done lying now and outright killing small games? This search system is literally awful maybe stop making it worse or even pretend to care!!!
Roblox to care about the top 300 and not just 50 in each category: impossible

I saved up money for over half a year to advertise my game. I spent 5k Robux and got less than 300 plays. This is beyond sickening - this is blatant mistreatment of the people who made your platform what it is today.
The ONLY real advantage you ever had making a Roblox game over using Godot, Unity, or any other lower-level game engine is that it was easy AND cheap to advertise and make your game popular fast. When I was making my game I didn’t even know that user ads were being killed.
Now we’re stuck with this “Ads Manager” garbage which is so badly made I can’t even view my ad analytics on my phone because the site doesn’t format properly.
When I first joined Roblox and made a Gear hangout game - I put what must have been a 300 Robux bid and got thousands of visits that day using the system YOU DEPRECATED - compared to the monstrosity you replaced it with.
I’d usually ask you to “Please bring it back” - but the reality is you people are so enveloped in pure greed and are scarily beyond expressing any amount of decency to the people you owe it to that asking anything that has even the slightest chance of cutting into your stock price (Which you only even have because of the developers on your site) is pointless.
Developers under 13 can’t even make ads anymore - which crushes any chance of them getting any meaningful amount of visits to the game they worked hard on.
Absolutely Disgusted.

company that don’t give a shit about players, instead of complicating and limiting sponsorship you could make a recommendation in roblox like youtube, if you put a video on youtube it at least some views but it gains! and if you create a game and publish it in roblox it will never gain visits itself, roblox should recommend the game again only that does not contain viruses from toolbox and not empty place.
