Here's the fastest path from sign-up to your first live campaign.
1. Create your account
Go to x.ppcmate.com/sign-up and provide your full name, company, email, timezone, and a password (at least 8 characters, with an uppercase letter, lowercase letter, number and special character).
2. Add funds
The minimum deposit is $25. Go to Add Funds — card, PayPal, crypto, Wise, Payoneer and more are supported (full list). Every deposit earns an automatic bonus, credited within 24 hours, and deposits of $100+ earn a higher tier.
3. Create your campaign
The wizard walks you through four steps — Budget, Goal & risk, Traffic and Review.
- Choose your pricing model, CPM or CPC (what's the difference?).
- On Goal & risk, optionally set a Bidding Goal so bids are priced by what a placement is worth to you.
- Set targeting — geo, device, category and more (all options).
Not sure what settings suit your vertical? The AI Strategist will propose a full setup you can edit before anything goes live.
4. Add your creative
Pick a format — Pop-under, Push, Display, HTML5/Rich Media, Native or Video (formats and specs) — and upload your assets and destination URL. No designer? Generate creatives with AI right in the form. Creatives are reviewed within 2-15 minutes.
5. Watch delivery start
Once approved, delivery begins within about 5 minutes. If it doesn't, run Campaign Health Check — a bid that's too low is the most common cause.
6. Monitor and optimize
Your dashboard shows performance, traffic by location, your top placements and traffic quality. From there:
- Set up Automated Rules as safety limits.
- Wire up conversion tracking, then consider AI Optimization.
- Use AI Search to find the placements that match your offer.
