Not getting credit for Brave News Ads - as from 19 November 2024. I can see the total viewed amount go up but receive zero BAT credits for having viewed them. I do receive credit for notification ads and new page ads.
My system Brave is up to date

@AMIT291 this is because it depends on the ad you see. If it is for Brave product, you get nothing. For more information, go read PSA: Current and upcoming changes to Rewards and Creators - #11 by Saoiray
ok i am already using brave browser from 2016,if we get nothing from brave product ads then reduce or stop showing those ads
When I asked about this during one of the last calls, they explained that ads for Brave products are only shown as placeholders—essentially, we only see them if there are no other ads available at that moment.
I’ll admit, I’m not entirely convinced, but that’s what they said.
That said, they did hint at some exciting changes coming early next year, so it looks like there’s a lot to look forward to. If I were you, I wouldn’t stress over it too much.
ok, Today my whole day passed but not received ads other then brave products means todays 0 points earned
@AMIT291 try checking https://sampson.codes/brave/ads/my_region/ where it shows you ad campaigns in your area. If you look closely, it shows you maximum ad views, when campaigns start/end, how much they pay, which type of ad they are, etc. For example, here are some ad campaigns in USA:
Guess let me break down the part:
Left side is when ads from the campaign could start showing and the right side is when it ends. In the case of this ad example, it only is showing one day only. So it’s a short campaign.
This is how much BAT we get when we view those ads. So this particular ad campaign is paying 0.01 BAT per ad, which is a nice range. (Many only do like 0.005 or so)
This is per day/week/month/total. Meaning the left number is the maximum times you can see ads from that campaign in a single day, in a week, in a whole month, or total. Most ad campaigns don’t do weekly or monthly limits, but instead just do a daily and total limit.
Would obviously be which OS it’s targeting. So in this screenshot it’s covering them all. It’s Android, iOS, Linux, Mac, and Windows. But some campaigns will target only Windows or something. So it’s important to notice this.
Then we’ll see an ad card preview. It will display what it seen in the ad, though not necessarily images. But one of the important things to check here is the upper right. It will either say
The one below is a SI, meaning it will only be able to be seen on New Tab Page.
If you’re saying that you aren’t getting anything other than Brave product ads on Brave News, then you may want to check that list to see how many campaigns have IC ads in your area. Then when you find them, you’ll want to take a look at when those campaigns began, when they end, what OS they target, and the view limits.
Obviously if the campaign started long ago and you’re regularly checking Brave News for ads, then you likely have reached the view limits. At which point it would make sense that only Brave product ads or nothing at all would be shown to you.
You’ll find the majority of paid ads tend to be SI or PN. There are IC ads but they are pretty rare in comparison.
And sometimes ads are niche. Like this one is for Mac only. It started on October 15 and ends on December 31. This means it is running for 443 days. But when checking view limits, it says can only see 1 per day, total of 25 times maximum. This means a person could max out on the views of this ad campaign within 25 days, give or take, even though the campaign lasts for over 400 days.
This is a good tool to use to check on things.
Well, that’s one of the campaigns. And yeah, that’s one done by Brave which is a house ad. The one you shared is SI which means it would be a NTP ad that you would seen when opening a new tab.
It seems you can see it up to 20 times in a day, but then after seeing 20 times would never see it again. It just runs for about 1 day as well, so it’s a short campaign.
You’d need to scroll through to see other ad campaigns and types in your area. Hopefully you have a lot more. If not, then it just means that your region does not have many advertisers. At which point only thing to do is try to spread word about Brave and hope can get businesses to advertise more.
