Rewarded Video

A rewarded video is a way for players to obtain rewards, such as in-game currency, collectables or consumables, or energy, by watching video ads.

Using Hiro you can track the start, status, and completion of ads watched by users, defining placements and then granting rewards to players when they finish watching a video ad.

Once a placement has been defined, you can use its ID to map to an Ad unit in your Ad mediation network’s dashboard.

Hiro supports both ironSource and AppLovin MAX via server-side webhooks for authoritative reward grants. The system also provides a fallback that grants the reward if the server-to-server callback doesn’t arrive in time (e.g., the user disconnects).
