BothAds

What BothAds Is

BothAds is a CPA affiliate network that positions itself as a global connector of advertisers, premium traffic partners, aggregators, and carriers through direct carrier billing (DCB) and mobile value-added services (MVAS) affiliate solutions, according to its official website. The network describes itself as performance-driven and focused on global mobile monetization, with direct partnerships across carriers, aggregators, and digital ecosystems. Third-party directory Affpaying describes BothAds as a CPA network providing performance-based online marketing for advertisers and publishers, with a team of several years of online marketing experience working with advertisers, publishers, and other affiliate networks. The same source lists over 10,000 offers available through the network.

BothAds emphasizes its presence in multiple global regions, naming Asia (Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Pakistan, Iran, UAE), Africa (Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, Egypt, South Africa), Europe (Turkey, Poland, Czech, Austria, Switzerland), and Latin America (Chile, Mexico, Brazil) for MVAS campaigns, and also lists Tier 1 countries including the USA, Canada, and Australia for lead generation, CC Submit, and e-commerce. The official site highlights participation in major industry events such as Affiliate World Dubai 2026, Affiliate World Europe 2026, and Affiliate World Bangkok 2026.

Offers & Verticals

The official BothAds website lists four core solution categories: DCB/MVAS (direct carrier billing and mobile value-added services), Lead Generation, CC Submit (optimized subscription and conversion flows), and E-Commerce. The site details five conversion flows for DCB/MVAS campaigns: Click Flow, PIN/OTP, MO Flow (SMS keyword), Click2SMS, and IVR Flow. Third-party sources add more specificity: Affpaying states BothAds provides verticals including mVAS (PIN Submits), Sweepstakes (CC Submit), and smartlinks to monetize traffic. Affinsight categorizes BothAds under Sweepstakes only, while Affcaptain lists Gaming, Leadgen, Mobile Apps & Utilities, mVAS, Online Sales, and Sweepstakes as major categories. Affcaptain also mentions that BothAds supports commission types CPA, DCB, CPM, and CPC, whereas Affpaying and Affinsight both list only CPA, CPL, and RevShare.

The official site emphasizes exclusive offers and premium traffic, but the actual offer inventory is not publicly detailed on the site. Third-party directories do not list specific offers either; Affinsight shows zero available offers for BothAds. Affcaptain notes that the network maintains partnerships with global game developers and content providers, and that its portfolio spans mobile subscription offers, leadgen campaigns, and CC submit sweepstakes.

Payments & Terms

Third-party directories consistently report a minimum payout threshold of $50. Affpaying lists payment frequency as Weekly, Net-7, and Net-15, with payment methods including Wire, PayPal, and Payoneer. Affinsight repeats the same figures. Affcaptain also lists minimum payout $50, payment frequency Net-15, Net-7, and Weekly, and payment methods Payoneer, PayPal, and Wire Transfer. Both Affpaying and Affcaptain report a referral commission of 5% for sub-affiliates.

The official BothAds website does not disclose payment terms, minimums, or methods. Therefore, all payment details in this review come from third-party sources and should be verified directly with the network. Affcaptain’s review notes that the flexible payment schedules and low $50 payout threshold are advantages for affiliates, but it also cautions that the offer pool is smaller than larger networks.

Platform & Tracking

Both Affpaying and Affinsight state that BothAds uses an in-house proprietary tracking platform. Affcaptain also lists tracking software as ‘In-house platform’ and adds that the network accepts Mobile, Desktop, and Native traffic, provided it is non-fraudulent. Affcaptain’s review includes a con regarding ‘limited public tracking transparency,’ suggesting that while the network uses its own platform, details about tracking capabilities are not openly disclosed. The official BothAds website does not describe its tracking software or reporting features in detail.

The network’s official site emphasizes global expertise and performance optimization, but does not provide technical specifications for its tracking system. Affiliates seeking granular tracking metrics may need to contact the network directly for more information.

The review lists pros as ‘Strong mVAS and mobile offers,’ ‘Flexible payment schedules available,’ ‘Responsive affiliate manager support,’ and ‘Low $50 payout threshold,’ while cons include ‘Limited public tracking transparency’ and ‘Smaller offer pool than giants.’ Affcaptain also mentions dedicated affiliate managers named Ken, Marvin, and Cathy. The official BothAds site does not provide any user reviews or ratings.

Who It Suits

Based on the official positioning and third-party assessments, BothAds is best suited for affiliates and publishers specializing in mobile subscription offers, DCB/MVAS campaigns, and lead generation across emerging markets such as Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Affcaptain’s review states that BothAds suits performance marketers looking for CPA, DCB, CPM, or CPC offers, and recommends evaluating whether the offer verticals and GEO mix match one’s traffic before committing. The network’s low $50 payout threshold and flexible payment schedules make it accessible for newer affiliates, while the referral program (5% commission) may appeal to community builders.

Affiliates who require extensive public tracking transparency, a very large offer pool, or a focus on Tier 1-only campaigns may find BothAds less suitable. The network’s primary strength lies in mobile-centric verticals, so affiliates working in other niches (e.g., finance, health, or desktop-focused campaigns) may need to look elsewhere. As with any network, a small test campaign is advisable before scaling up, as recommended by Affcaptain.
