Getting Started — Platform Partners
A platform partner is an organisation that operates its own ad exchange brand on top of Praevis infrastructure. You manage your own supply sources (Publishers) and demand sources (DSPs), set your own business terms, and run your exchange under your own domain — Praevis handles the infrastructure, auction engine, and compliance layer underneath.
The platform partner model

Revenue model: You receive a revenue share of the clearing price your supply sources earn. The exact percentage is agreed at contract stage. Contact [email protected] to initiate.
Setup checklist
Contact Praevis to open your partner account
Email [email protected] with:
- Your company name and country
- Approximate supply source count and inventory type (CTV, web, mobile)
- Your target go-live date
We’ll create your partner account and send login credentials within 1 business day.
Configure your custom domain
Add a CNAME record pointing your RTB endpoint and API domains to Praevis. SSL is managed automatically.
Set up your branding
Upload your logo, set your brand colour, and configure email templates. Your supply sources and demand sources will see your brand throughout.
Add your first supply source
Create a supply source under your partner account — same process as the standard supply integration, but scoped to your exchange.
Add your first demand source
Register a demand source under your partner account. They’ll receive bid requests only from your supply sources.
Go live
Enable live mode on your supply source and demand source. Your exchange is now running.
Partner isolation
Your exchange is fully isolated from other Praevis partners:
- Demand sources under your partner account only receive bid requests from your supply sources
- Supply sources under your partner account only appear in your pools
- Dashboard: your supply sources and demand sources only — no cross-partner visibility
- Sandbox: separate sandbox namespace per partner
- Reporting: revenue data is isolated and never shared across partners
