Pacing*Determines how budget is spent through the life of the campaign. Can be Daily, Lifetime, Flight, or None. 
Pacing Behavior* (Will display when a Pacing option has been chosen).

Pacing behavior determines the rate at which the budget is spent. Options include:

  • Even - This pacing will evenly distribute the budget during the lifetime, day, or flight duration. This type is best for those who want to spend the same amount of money during the campaign duration and the inventory is consistent. Even is the default setting chosen.

  • Ahead - Attempts to spend slightly faster than Even. This option is best for those who's main goal is to avoid any risk of under-delivery.
Multiplier* (Will display when a Pacing option has been chosen).Multiplier enables control over spending speed. For example, setting it to 1.5 will spend 150% of the allocated target amount. Enter a numerical value in this field.

Catchup behavior determines how the pacemaker responds when the budget delivery falls behind and inventory becomes suddenly available at a certain point. Options include:

  • Even - Will evenly catchup to the desired spend rate.
