In the mobile application industry, monetization model is an enduring topic. For a long time in the past, advertising monetization has been the mainstream of the industry, but with the increase of challenges such as user experience and ad blocking, the traditional advertising monetization model has gradually failed to keep up with the development of the times.

In a period of intertwined change and innovation, CastarSDK has emerged as a new force. It brings a new ad-free monetization solution to developers, allowing them to earn stable income without placing ads while maintaining a smooth user experience.

So, why are ad-free monetization models increasingly popular in 2025? How does CastarSDK help developers achieve profitability? This article will explore this in depth.

The decline of traditional advertising monetization models

In the past, applications usually relied on banner ads, video insertion and other methods to make profits. Today, such advertising monetization models are facing more and more challenges:

1. User experience declines and retention rate decreases

Although the existence of advertisements can bring revenue, the increasing number of advertisements will only make more users feel bored, thus affecting user retention rate and LTV infinitely decreasing.

2. The emergence of ad blocking

Policies and countermeasures often coexist. As ad monetization models evolved, so did ad blocking tools. More and more users install ad blocking tools, resulting in further shrinkage of advertising revenue.

3. Uncertainty of revenue

The advertising market is highly competitive, and the fill rate fluctuates greatly. Especially for small developers, advertising revenue is not stable enough and it is difficult to predict revenue.
