The Kvell Pricing Models

CPA
Cost Per Action

The umbrella model — pay only when a new user is acquired or a specific action is completed, whether that is a form fill, subscription, download or purchase.

CPS
Cost Per Sale

Pays partners when a customer purchases a product or service at full cost, or via cash-on-delivery. The advertiser only pays when revenue is driven.

CPI
Cost Per Install

Specific to mobile apps, pays partners when a user installs and opens an app — one of the most widely used models for mobile user acquisition.

CPL
Cost Per Lead

Pays when a user provides personal details as stipulated by the marketer — such as name, email and/or zip code — with lead generation as the objective.

CPE
Cost Per Engagement

Often used for post-installation events within mobile apps. At Kvell, this pays when a user completes an action after install, such as a registration or in-app purchase.

CPC
Cost Per Click

One of the most straightforward models — pays when a user clicks an ad and is redirected to the marketer's desired landing page.
