How Advertising on Sharklio Works

Sharklio is still in development, but the campaign model is already defined. Here is the full path from idea to verified results, and what you will control along the way.

Four Steps to Verified Results

Every campaign follows the same path, and you only pay at the very end.

  1. Step 1

    Create Your Campaign

    Describe what you want people to do and set the price you're willing to pay per completed action.

  2. Step 2

    Target Your Audience

    Choose which countries, devices, and age ranges see your campaign, so your budget reaches the right people.

  3. Step 3

    Get Reviewed & Launch

    Our team reviews every new campaign before it goes live, and we aim to finish reviews within a few hours.

  4. Step 4

    Pay Only for Results

    Check every completion in your dashboard and approve the ones that meet your requirements. You're only charged for approved results - never for impressions.

Writing a Campaign That Converts

A campaign is a short brief addressed to real people. It says what you want them to do, what counts as done, and what proof they need to provide. The clearer the brief, the faster it passes review and the fewer completions get rejected later.

Good campaigns name one action, not three. They describe the finishing point precisely, for example reaching a specific level or confirming an email address, rather than a vague goal like trying the app. And they set a price that reflects the real effort involved, because a fair price attracts people who actually finish.

  • One actionper campaign, described in plain language
  • A clear finish lineso both sides agree on what counts as complete
  • A fair priceset by you, based on the effort you ask for

Targeting Options

Decide exactly who can see and complete your campaign, so your budget is spent on the audience that matters to you.

  • Country

    Include or exclude individual countries, with a separate price per country where it makes sense.

  • Device type

    Show your campaign on desktop, on mobile, or on both.

  • Operating system

    Limit an app campaign to Android or iOS, or a software campaign to Windows.

  • Age range

    Set a minimum and maximum age when your product is meant for a specific audience.

  • Hourly and daily caps

    Limit how much you spend, or how many completions you accept, per hour and per day.

  • Total budget

    Set a ceiling for the whole campaign. It pauses automatically when the budget is used up.

How Campaign Review Works

Every new campaign is checked by a person before anyone can see it. The review confirms that the promoted product or service is legitimate, that the instructions are clear and honest, and that the campaign does not break our rules or the rules of our partners.

If something needs to change, the campaign is returned with a reason, so you can fix it and submit it again. Once approved, it goes live immediately and starts collecting completions within the limits you set.

You Approve Every Completion

Our team reviews campaigns, but completions are checked by you. Every completion first passes our automated fraud checks for automated activity, duplicate accounts, and disguised locations, and then appears in your campaign dashboard.

For each completion you see the details you need to decide, such as the submitted proof, the user's country and device, and when it was completed. Approve what meets your requirements and reject what does not, within the approval window you set for the campaign. Completions left unreviewed when the window ends are approved automatically. You pay only for approved results, so the budget follows the outcome, not the attempt.

Funding Your Campaigns

Campaigns are paid from your advertiser balance. Top it up in advance, and only the results you approve are deducted from it.

Phase 2

Top Up Your Balance

Add funds to your advertiser account before you launch a campaign. A balance of 1 USD is enough to create your first campaign. Balance top-ups open together with advertiser accounts, and the supported payment methods will be announced before launch.

  • One balance for every campaign
  • Spend tracked live
Pay per result

Spend Only on Results

Your balance is charged only for completions you approve in your dashboard. Rejected submissions cost nothing, and your caps keep spending within the limits you set.

  • Per approved action
  • Hourly and daily caps
  • No impression fees
