## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="What's the difference between Ad Products and Ad Units?">
    An Ad Unit is an individual placement where ads are displayed, while an Ad Product is a bundled unit sold to advertisers. Advertisers purchase products, and ads are displayed on the units included in that product.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="How should I structure Ad Products?">
    It's best to create them to correspond 1:1 with your Ad Media Kit. If your media kit has "Home Banner CPM", create a product with the same name and conditions in the Console.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Will ads be displayed immediately after creating a product?">
    When a product becomes On Sale, advertisers can book campaigns. Actual ad display starts after advertisers book campaigns and they are approved.
