Campaign overview
ProplexAds ran Direct Click traffic for a sportsbook operator in Brazil. A low cost per conversion does not show which traffic turns into depositing players, so every campaign was tracked through to the deposit.
Strategy and optimisation
Traffic ran as four separately tracked Direct Click campaigns: the core campaign, a dedicated iOS campaign, a whitelist (WL) campaign and a fourth campaign, New. Each one was compared on cost per conversion (CPA) and cost per deposit (CPD).

Results
Across the four campaigns, 395,807 clicks produced 641 conversions (a 0.1619% conversion rate) and 264 deposits, at a combined $9.39 per conversion and $22.80 per deposit. The core Direct Click campaign delivered the most deposits (117) and the lowest CPA ($8.49). The iOS campaign had the lowest cost per deposit ($20.12) and the highest conversion rate (0.2087%).
Key takeaways
- The lowest cost per conversion and the lowest cost per deposit came from different campaigns: $8.49 CPA on the core campaign, $20.12 per deposit on iOS.
- Running iOS as its own campaign made its stronger conversion rate visible: 0.2087%, against 0.1514% to 0.1676% for the other three.
- Cost per deposit stayed between $20.12 and $25.27 across all four campaigns.
