Minimum daily budgets at crypto ad networks, compared

Every pricing page in this industry leads with the deposit, and the deposit is the wrong number. What decides whether a test is affordable is the daily floor: the smallest amount a network will let one campaign spend in a day, multiplied by every day you run and, at most networks that have one, by every campaign you open. We read the terms, FAQs, help centres and getting-started guides of fourteen crypto ad networks on 1 October 2026, took down every floor each one publishes, and did the arithmetic the pricing pages leave out. Our payouts and minimums comparison covers the deposit itself and what publishers are paid; this page is about the run rate.

Three floors, and only one of them is on the pricing page

A crypto ad network can set three different minimums, and most set more than one. The deposit floor is the smallest payment the network will accept into your account. The daily floor is the smallest budget one campaign may carry per day. The campaign floor is the smallest total a single campaign, or a single contract, may be worth. Listicles quote the first because it is on the pricing page; the second is usually in a FAQ or a help-centre article, and the third is often only in the terms.

They behave differently once money is in the account. A deposit floor is paid once. A daily floor is paid every day the campaign is live, and at Coinzilla, Cointraffic and Blockchain-Ads it is per campaign, so a launch with three campaigns carries three floors at once. A campaign floor is the quietest of the three: it is enforced at order time, and it is the one that turns a “$100 network” into a five-figure one.

The floors, side by side, with the thirty-day arithmetic

Sorted by what thirty days of one campaign cost at the published floors. The last column is the larger of the deposit and thirty times the daily floor; where a network has a campaign floor, that governs. “None” means the network’s advertiser pages, FAQ and terms contain no daily figure, not that we failed to find one.

Network	Deposit floor	Daily floor	Thirty days, one campaign
Mintfunnel	$10 per campaign	None	$10
HypeLab	$100 (terms); $500 on its blog	None	$100
A-ADS	$100 ($250 for ERC-20 USDT)	Calculator default $100, minimum $1; $200 recommended	$100, or $6,000 at the recommended rate
Bitmedia	$300, waived for bitcoin	None for a plain campaign; $50 for even pacing, $100 for packages, $200 for Web3 audiences, $300 for Smart Bid	$300, or $6,000 with wallet targeting
Coinzilla	€100, prepaid	€50 per campaign	€1,500
CoinAdMedia	$100	$50	$1,500
Cointraffic	€3,000 managed; €1,500 PR-only; €500 marketplace CPM	€50 per campaign	€3,000, governed by the deposit
Slise	$5,000 campaign minimum (terms); FAQ says $500	None	$5,000
Coin.Network	$5,000 self-serve budget	None	$5,000
AdsNetwork	$5,000 initial deposit	None	$5,000
Blockchain-Ads	$10,000	$360 per active campaign	$10,800
DOT Ads	None published	None published	Not knowable from its pages

Two networks are off the table on purpose. Adshares publishes no deposit, no daily floor and no price, and its advertiser registration is closed; our Adshares review has the detail. TrafficSigma’s pricing page and advertising agreement stated a $300 minimum deposit and no daily figure when we reviewed it; on 1 October 2026 the site could not be reached at all, which for a network rated 3.5/10 on the alive question says more than a table row would.

The five networks that publish a daily floor

Coinzilla, €50 per campaign per day. The homepage FAQ sets it in one sentence, “EUR 100, but we have a minimum daily budget of EUR 50 per campaign”, and the terms separately require €100 paid in advance. Put together, the famous €100 entry buys two days of one campaign at the floor, and a thirty-day campaign at the floor costs €1,500, fifteen times the deposit. Because the floor is per campaign, a split test of two creatives in two campaigns is €100 a day before a single impression is overpaid. Our Coinzilla review explains why it still rates the network 9/10; it is simply not the €100 experiment the deposit implies.

CoinAdMedia, $50 a day. The advertisers page answers the question directly: “The minimum deposit is $100, and you can set daily budgets starting from $50.” That makes CoinAdMedia the one network whose deposit and daily floor are in a sensible ratio for a short test: $100 buys two days, $1,500 buys the month. The caveat is everything else on the site, which our CoinAdMedia review spends two thousand words on; the floor itself is not the problem.

Cointraffic, €50 per campaign per day. The advertiser FAQ sets the figure and, unusually, spells out the multiplication: run two formats at once and “your daily consumption would be at least €100 (Euros) per day – and more if you’ve set up more formats”. It is a formality all the same. The managed service wants €3,000 on the first deposit (€1,500 for a press-release-only campaign; the marketplace page quotes €500 for CPM campaigns and fixed placements from €670), so the deposit covers sixty days at the floor before the daily number matters. Cointraffic is the clearest case of a daily floor that exists on paper and governs nothing.

Bitmedia, $200 a day, but only for wallet targeting. A plain CPM or CPC campaign has no daily floor at Bitmedia: the $300 deposit (waived for bitcoin) is the whole entry price, and bids start at $0.30 per thousand impressions and $0.25 per click. Floors appear as you add features. Budget pacing is “available for a budget over 50$”, the Smart Bid strategy needs “a minimum daily budget of $300”, and the curated packages start “from $100 daily”. The floor that matters is in the guide to Web3-audience targeting, the product that sells wallet-connected users by balance and holdings: “Set a daily limit ($200 is the minimum requirement)”, CPM only. A month of the product that distinguishes Bitmedia from the open-web networks therefore costs $6,000 at the floor, twenty times the deposit; our HypeLab vs Bitmedia comparison sets that against a rival with no daily floor at all.

Blockchain-Ads, $360 per active campaign per day. The budget-and-bidding help article states a $360 minimum daily budget, and the funding article adds that it applies “per active campaign”, alongside the $10,000 minimum deposit and $30,000 a month for managed service. Thirty days at the daily floor come to $10,800, so the deposit that gets quoted everywhere does not quite buy a month of the cheapest possible campaign. Whether the next $10,000 is also a floor depends on which help article you read: the minimum-deposit article says “$10,000 is the floor on every deposit. Your first deposit and every top-up after it meet the same minimum”, while the funding article, on the same help centre on the same day, calls it “a one-time minimum deposit required to activate your advertiser account”. Our Blockchain-Ads review works from the stricter reading, which the billing-issues page repeats.

Campaign floors: the $5,000 club

Three networks skip the daily floor and set the whole campaign instead, and all three landed on the same figure. Slise’s terms of service require a $5,000 minimum campaign budget, prepaid; since mid-2026 its launch-offer FAQ has said “Our minimum starting budget is $500” and promised a self-serve dashboard, but the terms have not changed and the dashboard shows visitors a login page. Coin.Network, the crypto arm of BuySellAds, prints “minimum $5k budget” on its FAQ, its homepage and its format pages, which is the honest way to do it. AdsNetwork’s pages say “The minimum initial deposit is $5,000”, and the contradictory “no fixed minimum” answer that sat one question above it in September has been removed. None of the three publishes a daily figure, so the $5,000 is the day, the week and the month.

No daily floor, and what that is worth

Three networks publish no daily floor, and at all three the absence is a genuine feature. HypeLab’s terms set $100 as the minimum deposit (its blog says $500, and a newer blog post recommends $5,000 “for a structured test campaign”; the discrepancies are the company’s), and nothing in the terms or on the advertiser page says how slowly you may spend it; $100 can be a month. Mintfunnel says “you can start a campaign with as little as $10. No minimum budget requirement, no contracts”, with CPC bids from $0.25, so a $10 campaign is forty clicks, however long they take to arrive. A-ADS is the interesting one. It sells days rather than impressions: you set a daily budget and the network allocates impressions in proportion to your share of total advertiser spend. The homepage promises “flexible budgets starting from $100”, and its calculator defaults to $100 a day but slides down to $1; the help centre’s only hard rule is that campaigns “with a daily budget of less than 0.00000100 BTC will not receive traffic”; its FAQ answers “Is there a Minimum Daily Budget?” with the $100 deposit minimum; and its guide to setting a daily budget then recommends “Minimum 200$ per day” for all categories and $300 for premium sites, warning that smaller budgets “may not be effectively spent due to rounding errors in our algorithm”. The floor is the deposit; the advice is $6,000 a month. Our A-ADS review covers how far that is from the micro-budget network it used to be.

At DOT Ads the absence is the policy. The product page promises “Flexible Budgets” and “No minimum commitments or contracts”, and the help centre, terms and advertiser pages never put a number next to either. Third-party comparison sites fill the gap with “$20 a day” or “a $250 minimum”; neither appears on any DOT page, and one competitor that had been repeating the $20 figure in its own roundup replaced it with “No publicly published minimum” at the end of September. At DOT the price is whatever the sales conversation produces, which is a different thing from a low floor.

What the daily floor does to a test budget

The practical consequence is that the networks sort differently by day than by deposit. By deposit, Mintfunnel, A-ADS, Coinzilla, HypeLab and CoinAdMedia all look like hundred-dollar doors. By thirty days at the floor, Coinzilla costs €1,500 and CoinAdMedia $1,500, while HypeLab, Mintfunnel and A-ADS still cost what they cost to enter, with the A-ADS help centre advising against it. A founder with $500 for a first test can run it for five months at HypeLab and ten days at Coinzilla; at Bitmedia it buys the standard network but not the wallet product, and at the $5,000 club it buys nothing.

Three rules follow. First, price the test in days, not deposits: decide how many days of data you need to judge a placement, multiply by the floor, then by the number of campaigns, and only then look at the deposit. Second, daily floors stack per campaign at Coinzilla, Cointraffic and Blockchain-Ads, so the clean experiment, one variable per campaign, is the one the floor penalises most. Third, read a daily floor as a signal about the buyer the network wants: $360 a day says Blockchain-Ads wants teams spending six figures a month (the company says its average client spends around $135,000 a month), €50 a day says Coinzilla will take a serious small advertiser, and no floor says HypeLab is still buying its first thousand advertisers. Each belongs in the budget before the deposit does, and every floor above is non-refundable once paid, as our refund policies comparison sets out clause by clause.

Minimum daily budget FAQ

What is the lowest minimum daily budget at a crypto ad network?

Among networks that publish one, €50 at Coinzilla (per campaign), $50 at CoinAdMedia and €50 at Cointraffic (per campaign) are the lowest, as of 1 October 2026. HypeLab, Mintfunnel and A-ADS publish no daily floor, so the deposit ($100, $10 per campaign and $100 respectively) can be spent as slowly as the auction allows.

Is $20 a day enough for crypto ads?

Only at networks without a daily floor. $20 a day is below every published daily minimum in the industry; the figure circulates because third-party lists attach it to DOT Ads, whose own pages name no number. At HypeLab, Mintfunnel or A-ADS it is permitted, and buys roughly 80 clicks a day at Mintfunnel’s $0.25 floor bid; at Coinzilla it is below the €50 campaign floor.

Which crypto ad networks have no minimum daily budget?

HypeLab, Mintfunnel, A-ADS and Bitmedia’s standard campaigns publish no daily floor; Slise, Coin.Network and AdsNetwork replace it with a $5,000 campaign minimum; DOT Ads and Adshares publish no floor of any kind. “No daily minimum” and “cheap” are different claims: at the $5,000 club there is no daily figure because the whole campaign is already priced.

Does the minimum deposit cover a month of advertising?

Rarely where a daily floor exists. At Coinzilla the €100 deposit covers two days of one campaign at the €50 floor; at Blockchain-Ads the $10,000 deposit covers twenty-seven days at $360. The deposit covers a month only where there is no daily floor (HypeLab, Mintfunnel, A-ADS, Bitmedia’s standard campaigns) or where it dwarfs thirty days at the floor (Cointraffic’s €3,000 against €50 a day).

Why do networks set the daily minimum per campaign?

Because a campaign is the unit the ad server optimises, and a campaign spending a few euros a day produces too little data to pace or to bill cleanly; Blockchain-Ads says its $360 “ensures each campaign has enough volume for optimization”, and A-ADS warns that small budgets fall foul of rounding. The side effect is that the floor multiplies with every campaign you open, so the advertiser who tests properly pays the most floors.
