    Okay so I put the Unity Ads in my 2D game I have the scripts and everything set up...
    Code (CSharp):
    1. void Awake()
    2.     {
    3.         Advertisement.Initialize ("Mine game ID");
    4.     }
    5.  
    6.     void OnCollisionEnter2D()
    7.     {
    8.         if (Advertisement.isReady())
    9.         {
    10.             Advertisement.Show();
    11.         }
    12. }
    In the editor it show that picture that it should work..
    So what should I do in order to start making a little bit of money from ads?
    Also when I build it and try it on Android it doesn't show ads.

    Okay so the showing ad thing is fixed (on my phone and my sister's phone was working but on the tablet it wasn't so I reboot the tablet now it works). In my Unity Ads account I have 5 videos started and 4 completed I understand this but I don't understand how to start getting money from it.. I read the page you suggested me but still don't understand.. Can you explain it to me? Thanks.

    Hi, if Unity Ads shows that videos are started and completed, you are making money. But you need much more than 5 videos started to see results. Unity ads is a bit wierd, you don't see money coming in all the time. One day you can have 100 vids completed and get nothing, the next day you get 5 dollars after 10 vids completed. Also you need at least 5000 ad requests for it to start working.

    Okay so that is everything I need to do right? Only with that when I will get 1000 videos s/c I will get 6-12 dollars..? I don't need to do anything else like Ad Campaigns or something because the only thing I have done is I put Unity Ads in my game and wrote that script and login into the Unity Ads added my game and nothing else..? It will work?
    Thanks.

    If I decrease the seconds to 1 second or uncheck the box of defaultVideoAndPictureZone will it decrease my revenue? (I have none at the moment but in the future if I do that will it affect my revenue?)

    Hello,

    I think you are talking about skipping video option.
    Using that option may decrease your revenue. If user skips a video, you couldnt generate completed views.
    Maybe its usefull when you want to show an video ad in game startup.

    Regards,
