Trouble monetizing a game in Godot

Godot 4.6.3 stable

I’ve been working on a game recently, and I figured if I’m making a game I might as well make some money off of it. My vision currently is some billboards containing static ads (2D), but when I went to look for ways to implement ads I could hardly find anything allowing me to put these ‘intermittent’ or ‘reward’ ads, neither of which I’m particularly interested in but could compromise to. I would be happier if I could have a banner ad somewhere, and optimally I would be able to reposition it away from the ui buttons which I was planning to put in the bottom of the screen.

I’ve searched the forums and google a good bit but couldn’t quite find anything, if someone who knows a bit more about this could explain some options that would be amazing. Thanks!

Usually you integrate an ad SDK through a platform plugin, for example AdMob on Android/iOS.
For your billboard idea, though, I would separate two cases:

  1. Standard ad network banner/rewarded ads: use a plugin and follow the network rules.
  2. In-game static billboards: treat them as normal game content.
    The second option is much easier if you sell/choose the ads yourself.
