Same day ad spend

Adjust's Same day ad spend solution retrieves ad spend data, six times through the day from advertising networks.

With up-to-date and fresh ad spend data, you can get early insights into your campaign performance and advertising expenses. You can quickly optimize your campaigns and get the best return on investment.

How it works

  1. As soon as you have the Same day ad spend solution on your account, Adjust retrieves ad spend data for the current day.
    • The currency exchange rate for ad spend data is based on the previous day’s exchange rate.
  2. Adjust retrieves ad spend data six times a day, every 4 hours to maintain data freshness:
    • 00:00 UTC
    • 04:00 UTC
    • 08:00 UTC
    • 12:00 UTC
    • 16:00 UTC
    • 20:00 UTC
  3. You can see ad spend data in Datascape or pull data through the Report Service API.

Data lookback window

Ad spend data is fixed and corrected on the network's side, and can change over a period of a few days. So, Adjust pulls ad spend data from networks daily for the last 14 days. Additionally, you can request Adjust to refetch and ingest your data.

Example: Adjust pulls ad spend data from Network A on February 16th. We pull data for February 16 and the previous 14 days, meaning that this pull includes data from February 2nd - 15th.
