Getting Started with Unity SDK

The Empower Mobile Ads SDK for Unity lets you monetize your Android and iOS game with a single C# API. Through intelligent mediation, the SDK automatically selects and serves the best ad from multiple premium networks.

The C# API is identical across platforms; the SDK bridges to the native Android and iOS SDKs under the hood.

Supported Ad Formats

Format	Description
Banner	Persistent native overlays rendered on top of the Unity view (320x50, 320x100, 300x250, or custom).
Interstitial	Full-screen ads shown at natural transition points.
Rewarded	Full-screen opt-in video ads that grant a reward on completion.
App Open	Full-screen ads shown when the user returns to your app.
Preroll	Video ads that play before your own video content.

Quick Start

The minimum code to get ads running:

using UnityEngine;
using Empower.MobileAds;

public class QuickStart : MonoBehaviour
{
    void Start()
    {
        // 1. Subscribe BEFORE Initialize so you don't miss early callbacks
        EmpowerAds.OnSdkReady += () =>
        {
            Debug.Log("SDK ready — loading an interstitial...");
            EmpowerAds.LoadInterstitialAd("YOUR_ZONE_ID");
        };

        EmpowerAds.OnInterstitialStatusChanged += (status, zoneId) =>
        {
            if (status == AdStatus.Ready)
                Debug.Log("Interstitial loaded. Call ShowInterstitial() when needed.");
        };

        // 2. Initialize (separate identifiers for Android and iOS)
        var config = new EmpowerAdsConfig(
            android: "your_android_app_identifier",
            iOS:     "your_ios_app_identifier"
        );
        EmpowerAds.Initialize(config);
    }

    public void OnShowAdClicked()
    {
        EmpowerAds.ShowInterstitial("YOUR_ZONE_ID");
    }
}

That is the entire flow: initialize the SDK, load an ad once the SDK is ready, and show it when appropriate.

Integration Workflow

1. Prerequisites — check your Unity, Android, and iOS versions.
2. Integration — install the package and configure the native projects.
3. Configuration — initialize the SDK, handle events and consent.
4. Ad Types — implement Banner, Interstitial, Rewarded, App Open, and Preroll ads.

What You'll Need

• Your App Ad Identifier (per platform, from the Empower dashboard).
• Zone IDs for each ad placement.
