Promotions

Built the app. Now get it found.

AppLink gives you two ways to put a live application in front of Banglalink subscribers: paid Adcore campaigns you run yourself, and free SMS promotions the AppLink team selects.

Open AdcoreApply for a free SMS promotion
Two ways to promote

Pay to reach, or be picked

Both start from the same place: an approved AppLink application. Where they differ is who decides when it runs, and who pays for it.

Paid, you control it

Adcore promotions

Top up a balance on Banglalink's Adcore platform and run click-based campaigns for your app whenever you want. You set the clicks, the click type and the schedule; the cost comes off your balance.

  • Runs on your schedule, as often as you like
  • Charged per click, from a balance you top up
  • Needs an approved AppLink app and an Adcore account
Free, we select

Free SMS promotions

We pick apps for a free SMS promotion and send it out for you, at no cost. You can ask us to look at yours, and we choose based on how your app is doing and the care you have put into it.

  • Costs you nothing
  • We pick the apps that go out
  • We look at how yours is doing
Before you start

An approved AppLink application with an App ID.

Built with the Wizard or with the APIs. Either one counts.

Go to AppLink

  1. Get on to Adcore

    Adcore is a separate platform from AppLink. You sign up for it once.

    1. Visit the Adcore platform at adcore.banglalink.net.

    2. Create an Adcore account with your name, email, mobile number and a password.

      • Use the same details as your AppLink account. It keeps the two easy to match up later.

    3. Already have an Adcore account? Sign in with those credentials instead.

  2. Add your app

    Adcore needs to know which approved app it is promoting, and what that app charges.

    1. Add your promotion-ready applications to the Adcore platform.

      • An already-approved AppLink application ID
      • The app name
      • Your activation keyword, the one subscribers send as START [KEYWORD]
      • The subscription price your app charges the end user

    2. Open My AppLink Apps and check that your application is listed.

  3. Put money in

    Campaigns run against a balance, so top up before you build one.

    1. Go to My Campaigns and start a top-up.

    2. Pick the amount you want to invest, in BDT, from the amount dropdown.

    3. Pay for that amount using whichever payment method suits you.

    4. Confirm the top-up went through and that your balance now shows it.

  4. Build and launch the campaign

    Name it, size it, and send it for approval. Adcore starts it on the date you asked for.

    1. With a balance in place, click New campaign.

    2. Choose AppLink.

    3. Fill in the campaign details.

      • A campaign name
      • Your application, from the dropdown
      • The category that best suits your application
      • A prompt text, from the available lot
      • The total clicks you expect from the campaign
      • Whether you want premium clicks

      Click type and expected clicks together set what the campaign costs, and that amount comes off your balance.

    4. Send the campaign for approval.

    5. Visit My Campaigns and check that it is sitting at Pending approval.

    6. Once Adcore approves it, the campaign starts running on the date slot you asked for.
