Why Money Amulet?

We had some experience working with similar e-commerce offers, but in a different GEO, that’s why we knew some insights about the audience and how they can be applied. It was exciting for us to test a new GEO. Plus, when we reached 100 leads daily for the offer, our manager gave us a payout boost which was also nice.

Creatives

We were using AdCombo’s pre-landing pages which our AM recommended to us. Also, some prelanders were discovered using a spy tool. After testing several creative pairs, we chose one with a CR of 2.7%.

We tested several types of creatives to finally discover the winning combo. It’s not a secret that explicit creative materials usually convert better, but at the same time, they increase the chances to get a ban from Facebook. So everything comes to the way of finding this golden mean. Here are some examples of our most profitable yet safe creatives.

Moderation

For some time after the campaign launch, Facebook was allowing us to work using regular domain names and API. That helped us a lot in testing different creative materials. But the more leads we got, the more difficult it was for us to pass the moderation and get our accounts out of the ban. That’s why we’ve decided to utilize https://github.com/, a website builder. There you can add an external landing page and drive traffic to it using API. The good reputation of GitHub facilitated going through moderation and made the process much faster and safer for our Facebook accounts.

If you want to learn more details on how to use GitHub as a cloaking tool, leave us a comment. And we will write a separate article about it.

Scaling

We were gradually increasing the bidding budget as well as adding more ads.

Here is a little tip: we found out that it’s better to start with a small budget and then leave it for Facebook Automated Rules to increase the bidding price by 20-30% once in 24 hours.

What we had

1st campaign
2-3 ad sets
2 ads per each ad set

You can see how our accounts were successful by looking over this screenshot. The average lead cost $1-1.2.

Also, have a look at the stats from AdCombo.

Increased traffic expenses that followed the campaign scaling negatively affected its CR. Finally, we didn’t manage to achieve the profit level that we aimed at. As a result, we stopped running traffic to the offer and switched focus from it to other AdCombo offers.

We contacted the Affiliate Manager who consulted the team, and she said that the offer is still active. As stated in the case study, the offer has a high performance with Facebook traffic. AdCombo also recommends trying the other GEOs of the offer besides Indonesia: Turkey and the Philippines.

Dare to make a try?

Few words about this offer (product):

As it is claimed on landing pages Money Amulets were created by ancient monks/witches/elves/dwarves… you name it. And you, my dear customer, have a unique opportunity to buy one of those amulets for a symbolic price of just a few euros. Those amulets will not only give you +1000 points in luck but also they are great for increasing your libido. As always, this is an ultimate cure for all diseases, my friends!

Why Europe?

Originally Money Amulet offer was launched for Thailand and there was a pretty good approval rate of 40%. So, our affiliates started asking their AMs to make this offer available in other regions either. As you might already know AdCombo is a client-oriented company… So we couldn’t resist. And here we go – Money Amulet for European countries!

Let’s see why they are particularly good for all that esoteric stuff.

According to a study conducted in 2017 among citizens of Central and Eastern European countries roughly 1 out of 2 citizens believes in miracles. The survey also finds that many respondents across the region hold beliefs that magic, sorcery or witchcraft can influence people’s lives. Cool?

Second, there is also another article from The Telegraph claiming that Italians spend £5 billion a year on fortune tellers and astrology. “Italians are very susceptible to trying their luck on anything esoteric and they’re extremely superstitious” said Carlo Climati, who wrote a book on superstitious beliefs.

Now that you know all those interesting facts and statistics I hope you understand that Europe is a gold mine for esoteric offers and with Money Amulet all gold can be yours. So, don’t waste your time! Go and grab it! AdCombo’s mailing list is quite long and our blog is quite popular.
