NOTE

If the product you are creating is using a Budget Based rate type then setup your product as normal but with no assigned Rate Type or Product Base Rate. This will allow the product to be setup as needed by the rep when creating a campaign or flight with Budget Based products. 

When choosing a calendar-based Rate Type, other than Daily, you'll also be prompted to specify the calculation method. The table below describes how each of the Calculation Type options affect your rate calculation.

Rate Type Rate Calculation Logic

CPM
Cost per mille (latin for thousand)

Uses product budget to calculate number of impressions based on rate.

Product Budget ÷ Rate x 1000 = Quantity (impressions)

CPC
Cost per click

Uses product budget to calculate number of clicks based on rate.

Product Budget ÷ Rate = Quantity (clicks)

CPA
Cost per action

Uses product budget to calculate the number of actions based on rate.

Product Budget ÷ Rate = Quantity (actions)

CPE
Cost per engagement

Uses product budget to calculate the number of engagements based on rate. 

Product Budget ÷ Rate = Quantity (engagements)

CPV
Cost per view

Uses product budget to calculate the number of views based on rate. 

Product Budget ÷ Rate = Quantity (views)

CPP
Cost per rating point

Uses product budget to calculate the number of rating points based on rate.

Product Budget ÷ Rate = Quantity (rating points)

Flat Rate

Sets a one-time cost for a product.

Quantity is always equal to 1.

Cost Per

Uses product budget to calculate the quantity available for that assigned budget.

Product Budget ÷ Rate = Quantity (reps can adjust quantity as needed)

Bonus

Used when a product can be added at no cost. 

No calculation necessary.

Daily

Uses the campaign or flight dates to calculate the cost for the product. 

Number of days in campaign or flight (Quantity) x Rate = Product Cost
