- Audio ads are sold on a cost-per-mille basis.
- Advertising through a managed-service option with an Amazon Ads account executive (display ads, video ads, and ads that are run through the Amazon DSP) typically require a minimum spend of $50,000 (USD). Contact an Amazon Ads account executive for more information.
