Every day, we hear a common misconception that the Moloco SDK is just like any other mobile ad SDK — simply a tool to earn some incremental revenue. We’d like to bust this myth once and for all.

It was the logical next step for us to create value for all our mobile partners building on our decade-plus expertise in maximizing in-app advertising performance. The Moloco SDK represents a smarter way for publishers to monetize with ads—with an SDK free of fees.
We don’t make any money from the Moloco SDK. Full stop. But if you’re looking for more clarification, we’ll add that we don’t take any cut, as in margin fees.
Our goal for the Moloco SDK is to improve the desired outcomes for app marketers and publishers by increasing ROI and maximizing revenue, respectively.
Now, when marketers advertise with Moloco Ads, the Moloco SDK allows them to reach users through a more direct path—for example, fewer intermediaries like ad exchanges—saving fees, allowing for more competitive bidding.
