Before You Begin

To integrate the Bidease SDK, you need an active publisher account on the Bidease Monetize platform.

Prerequisites:

• Minimum Android SDK: 23 (Android 6.0)
• Target API: 35
• Minimal AppLovin MAX version: 13

1. Installation

Current published version: 2.0.6.

build.gradle

dependencies {
  implementation("com.bidease:bidease-mobile:2.0.6")
  implementation("com.bidease:applovin-adapter:2.0.6")
}

warning

Always use the latest available SDK version from Bidease.

2. Initialization

Your App Key is available in the Bidease Monetize dashboard:

1. Log in to your account at monetize.bidease.com
2. Go to Applications
3. Open the required application
4. Copy the App Key

2.2. Set Bidease App Key

Before initializing AppLovin MAX, set your Bidease app key:

import com.bidease.mobile.PrivacyParams

BideaseApplovinMediationAdapter.setAppKey(
  "YOUR_APP_KEY",
  PrivacyParams(/* see Privacy & Consent */),
  mapOf("ipv4" to "203.0.113.17")
)

warning

Replace YOUR_APP_KEY with the App Key from your Bidease Monetize dashboard.

note

setAppKey accepts optional PrivacyParams and customProps. Use setAppKey("YOUR_APP_KEY") if you don't need either.

4. Privacy & Consent

Privacy signals and custom props are passed through to the Bidease SDK when the adapter initializes it. Use the three-argument setAppKey overload shown above, or update signals at runtime via BideaseMobile.setPrivacyParams(...) / setCustomProps(...) after the adapter has initialized the SDK.

import com.bidease.mobile.PrivacyParams

val privacyParams = PrivacyParams(
    coppaEnabled = true,
    subjectToGdpr = true,
    subjectToCoppa = false,
    usPrivacyString = "1YNN",
    gppString = "DBACNYA~CPXxRfAPXxRfAAfKABENB-CgAAAAAAAAAAYgAAAAAAAA~1YNN",
    gppSid = listOf(2, 6),
    userConsentString = "CPXxRfAPXxRfAAfKABENB-CgAAAAAAAAAAYgAAAAAAAA",
    subjectToLgpd = true
)

Field	Type	Description
coppaEnabled	Boolean	Enable COPPA compliance
subjectToGdpr	Boolean?	Subject to GDPR
subjectToCoppa	Boolean?	Subject to COPPA
usPrivacyString	String?	IAB US Privacy string (e.g. "1YNN")

QA Checklist

Read before shipping

• Test Mode provides nearly 100% fill — expected behavior for QA only.
• Disable Test Mode before submitting your app to Google Play.
• Ensure GAID is available on your test device so the Bidease team can review logs.
• If you run into any issues, contact your Bidease account manager.
