Brave recently shipped the dev build version 0.60 which features Opt-in ads (Users will be able to earn 70% of the revenue share coming from those ads soon)

The dev. build can be downloaded here: https://brave.com/download-dev/

I’ve downloaded the dev build, and started digging for the ads catalog, here are some data extracted from the ads .JSON file:

Please keep in mind that this is a dev. build on a very early version of the ads feature

There is a dailyCap and a budget for each campaign

dailyCap is fixed at 25000 (BAT?) for the campaigns as of today, budget fixed at 50000. Those numbers are most likely placeholders, and will change with the release of the revenue-sharing program in a near future

A list of the target URLs for the ads (‘targetUrl’ in catalog.json):

So, we have a list of Brave ads partners:

BuySellAds

Lolli.com

Crypto Traders Pro

BuySellAds brought ads from their inventory, so we have ads for : Slack, Loggly, Papertrail, HelloSign, AppOptics

There is a “execution”: “per_click” parameter, so I guess you can configure a campaign to be paid per click or per impression

There is a “geoTargets” parameter, which value can be “United States” for example. So it appears that the ads can be configured to be geo targeted

Campaigns are based on a “segments” parameter, which value can be “Arts & Entertainment”, “Technology & Computing” , “Education”, “Personal Finance”, “Travel”,”Real Estate”, “Home”, “hobbies & interests”, “food & drink” , “Business” and “commerce”

From the Brave Rewards tab:

If you Opt-in for ads, you can choose how often ads are displayed, between 1 to 5 per hour

Here is a sample ad that I was shown after clicking on the new ad notification:

It’s very exciting to see an early release of the opt-in ads program, I’m looking forward the official release
