About AdSurface

AdSurface offers a unique advertising platform that allows Mac users to opt-in to menu bar ads, with advertisers gaining access to highly engaged audiences. By participating, users can earn a substantial share—70%—of the ad revenue generated from their Mac. The platform features real-time market CPM updates from €2, updated hourly, enabling flexible and transparent ad pricing. Campaigns are easy to manage with options to pause at any time, and the system requires campaign review and device eligibility checks, supporting macOS 14+ on both Intel and Apple Silicon Macs. The initial launch incentives include €25 free ad credits for the first 10 eligible users, encouraging early adoption without requiring top-ups.
