DEALS

Open bidding and private deals

There are two ways to buy retail media ads: open bidding, which you can try with a small budget, and private deals, where you agree terms with a retail chain or shopping center to secure the space. Choose based on your goals, or combine them.

Either way, ReceiptRoller takes care of delivery, measurement and billing.

How the two deal types differ

Want to try it right away with a small budget? Choose open bidding. Need to guarantee your slots? Choose a private deal.

Start now, start small

Open bidding

How you buy

Bid on the ad space stores have opened up, with the conditions you set.

How the price is set

Set by bidding, at or above the floor price (minimum rate) the store has set.

Slot guarantee

Slots aren't guaranteed. Ads run in order, highest bid first.

Getting started

Once you create an account, you can upload ads and bid from the dashboard.

Best for

Your first campaign, testing areas or ad spaces, or checking results with a small budget.

Lock in your slots

Private deal

How you buy

Buy on terms agreed with a specific retail chain or shopping center.

How the price is set

Dates, slots and price are agreed with the retailer.

Slot guarantee

The agreed slots are guaranteed. Exclusive slots can also be discussed.

Getting started

Ads run once terms are agreed with the retailer. You can also start by inviting a retailer you already work with.

Best for

When delivery must be guaranteed, such as a product launch or a major campaign, or when you want to run a promotion together with a retailer you already work with.

Open bidding

Set your conditions and bid. That's it.

No need to visit stores one by one or sign individual contracts.

Set conditions and bid

Set the ad space, area, time of day and budget, then bid.

Runs at or above the floor price

Only bids at or above the floor price (minimum rate) the store sets for each ad space will run.

Highest bid runs first

When there are several bids for the same slot, the highest runs first.

Start small, with a single store

No minimum spend, and you'll never be charged more than your budget cap.

Private deal

Secure your slots and guarantee delivery

Agree terms with a specific retail chain or shopping center and lock in the slots you need.

Agree on dates, slots and price

Agree on dates, slots and price with a specific retail chain or shopping center to secure the space.

Exclusive slots available on request

You can also discuss exclusive slots with the retailer, where no other advertiser's ads run during your campaign.

Priority over open bidding

Private deal slots are delivered ahead of open bidding.

Invite retailers you work with

Invite retailers you already work with to ReceiptRoller to start a private deal.

Another option

Managed service

The ReceiptRoller team handles your campaign planning, creative and reporting. Use it when you don't have someone in-house to run campaigns, or when it's your first campaign and you'd like advice on how to proceed. We'll agree on the scope with you.

Not sure? Start with open bidding

We recommend testing with a small budget first, then setting up private deals with the retailers that deliver results.

1

Test with open bidding

Run with a small budget across a few areas and ad spaces.

2

Check the results

Compare coupon redemptions and sales lift in your reports.

3

Move to a private deal

Agree terms with the retailers that delivered results, and secure your slots.

Measurement is the same either way

The reports you get don't change with the deal type.

Delivery results

See which stores and ad spaces showed your ad, and how many times.

Coupon redemptions

For ads with an offer, see how many coupons were claimed and how many were used at the register.

Sales lift

Compare stores that ran your ad with stores that didn't to see sales lift (the increase in sales driven by the ad).
