Custom-Built Creative Templates for Google Ad Manager

Custom-built GAM templates for campaigns that need more than a standard ad format - including deep website integration, custom interactions, live data, and advanced tracking.

  • No website changes required

    We adapt the template to your existing site.

  • Import-ready for GAM

    Delivered as a ready-to-import template.

  • Tracking & live data ready

    Support for external trackers, APIs, and JSON data.

What is a custom creative template?

A custom-built template is developed for a specific campaign, website, or ad format that cannot be handled by a standard GAM creative.

We can integrate the creative directly with your existing website structure, usually without requiring changes from your development team. Templates can include responsive layouts, custom interactions, external tracking, live JSON data, video, and other campaign-specific functionality.

The final template is delivered ready to import and use in Google Ad Manager.

Built around your website

Some rich-media formats need to work with elements outside the GAM ad slot - page backgrounds, headers, article layouts, sidebars, sticky elements, or existing website components.

We build the template around your current website structure, so in most cases your developers do not need to modify the site for the campaign.

See a real example: how we built a custom GAM template with sticky behavior, viewport logic, auto-close timing, and hover interaction.

Frequently asked questions

Do you need access to our website code?

Usually no. We can build the template around the existing website structure using the public website or a staging environment. If special integration is required, we will let you know before development starts.

Can the template use external or live data?

Yes. Custom-built templates can use JSON feeds, APIs, or other data sources when required by the campaign.

Can you add third-party tracking?

Yes. We can implement IAS, MOAT, impression trackers, click trackers, third-party tags, and other campaign-specific tracking requirements.

Will GAM reporting work normally?

Yes. Templates are built to support standard GAM click and impression tracking and Active View measurement where the format allows it.

What about browser support?

We support modern, widely used desktop and mobile browsers and test the template against the required layouts before delivery.

Do our developers need to modify the website?

In most cases, no. A key part of the service is adapting the template to the existing website structure so the campaign can run without additional development on your side.

Can you update or fix an existing template?

Yes. Updates, fixes, and smaller changes are quoted separately and usually cost less than developing a new custom-built template.

How long does development take?

Most custom-built templates are ready within 5–10 business days after the scope is confirmed and the project is started.
