The Role of Advertising Revenue on the ZenWaves Platform
Advertising revenue is one of the key income sources for the ZenWaves platform. For free users, the advertising model provides an opportunity to access functional music without a subscription while ensuring sustainable financial support for the platform, creators, and community. Through intelligent ad distribution and a transparent revenue-sharing mechanism, ZenWaves balances user experience, creator incentives, and platform income.
Advertising Revenue Model
ZenWaves’ advertising revenue model is based on the interaction behaviors of free users. By delivering targeted ads, the platform provides effective marketing solutions for brands and advertisers while maintaining a pleasant user experience.
Types of Advertisements
Audio Ads
Short audio ads played before or during functional music.
Typically 15–30 seconds long to minimize disruption to the listening experience.
Video Ads
Video ads shown before generating music or accessing certain premium features.
Lasts 15 or 30 seconds.
Display Ads
Banner ads or recommendations displayed on platform pages, visible while browsing the music library or participating in interactions.
Interactive Ads
Users can earn Energy Stones by clicking on or engaging with ad activities, such as surveys or branded mini-games.
Smart Ad Distribution
Precise Targeting
Based on user behavior, interests, and music preferences, ZenWaves’ ad algorithms match the most relevant ads to each user.
For example, users of meditation music may see ads for health or mindfulness courses.
Scenario Optimization
Ad content dynamically adjusts to the user’s current music scenario (e.g., sleep aid or focus) to avoid disrupting the experience.
Frequency Control
Limits on the number of ads each user sees daily ensure the advertising does not negatively impact the overall platform experience.
Advertising Revenue Distribution
Advertising revenue is transparently distributed using smart contracts based on the following rules:
1. Creator Shares
Proportion: 50%
Creators earn half of the ad revenue based on the proportion of their music plays out of the platform’s total plays. This incentivizes creators to continue producing high-quality content.
Example: If a creator’s music accounts for 5% of the total monthly plays and total ad revenue is $500,000: $500,000 \times 50\% \times 5\% = $12,500
2. Platform Operations
Proportion: 30%
Allocated for technology development, server maintenance, and marketing to support the platform’s long-term growth.
Funds are also used to improve ad algorithms, enhancing ad relevance to user needs.
3. Community Incentive Fund
Proportion: 20%
Rewards users for actively participating in platform activities, such as watching ads, interacting with the platform, and referring others.
Interactive Rewards:
Users earn Energy Stones for watching ads, which can be used to unlock personalized music generation and premium services.
