Ad network reviews
Before you send a deposit to Evadav, ClickAdilla, AdMaven, HilltopAds or OnClickA, it pays to know what other advertisers say. We collected each network's Trustpilot rating with the date it was recorded, the complaints that come up most often and what to check before you pay.
Reviews are a signal, not a verdict: a low score can hide a solid network for your vertical, and a high one can hide problems with withdrawals. Below we explain how to read them, how to run a cheap technical test and when a network needs a bigger budget to judge profitability.

As of October 7, 2026; each rating links to the network's Trustpilot page, where the current score may differ. These are the networks' ratings on Trustpilot, a third-party platform, not our rating. Trustpilot does not fact-check reviews, and they mix advertiser and publisher experience. We update this table monthly.
EvadavEvadav reviews
Rating: 3.4 out of 5 on Trustpilot, based on 69 reviews, as of October 7, 2026.
Evadav is a push, popunder, native and in-page network with a $100 minimum deposit and top-ups by card, PayPal, Skrill, Payoneer and other methods, according to its advertiser FAQ. Typical complaints in third-party reviews: accounts blocked when the advertiser asks to withdraw the balance, unwanted email newsletters and questions about traffic quality.
What to check before depositing:
- The banned list: weapons, drugs, adult and nudity, prize surveys and suspicious software are not allowed. A campaign that breaks the rules is the most common reason for a blocked balance.
- How and when you can withdraw the remainder, and the minimum for withdrawal.
- Traffic quality on a test budget, with your own tracker, before you scale.

ClickAdillaClickAdilla reviews
Rating: 1.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot, based on 183 reviews, 72% of them with 1 star, as of October 7, 2026.
According to third-party reviews, ClickAdilla accepts deposits from $50 in BTC and USDT and is mostly used for adult and dating traffic. The network has not confirmed these figures publicly. In Trustpilot reviews and on forums such as BlackHatWorld, users complain about bot traffic, deposits, getting money back and slow support. These are individual reports, not a proven verdict on the network, but the pattern is a reason to keep the first deposit small.
What to check before depositing:
- The real minimum and payment methods on the billing page of your account.
- Whether your vertical is allowed. The official banned list does not mention crypto, gambling, nutra or VPN, but that does not mean they are permitted.
- Traffic quality: compare the network's stats with your tracker during the smoke test, and if they diverge, check the possible causes listed in the test plan below before topping up.
- The refund procedure for unspent balance.

AdMavenAdMaven reviews
Rating: 3.1 out of 5 on Trustpilot, based on 125 reviews, 57% of them with 1 star, as of October 7, 2026.
AdMaven asks a $100 minimum for most payment methods and $500 for USDT, BTC and wire, according to its advertiser help center. A middling score with more than half of the reviews at 1 star is a reason to read the complaints carefully and start small, not necessarily a reason to rule the network out.
What to check before depositing:
- What the 1-star reviews are about: payouts, moderation or traffic quality, and how recent they are.
- The minimum for your payment method: $100 or $500.
- Withdrawal methods and the withdrawal minimum, confirmed in writing.
HilltopAdsHilltopAds reviews
Rating: 3.5 out of 5 on Trustpilot, based on 325 reviews, as of October 7, 2026. Trustpilot does not fact-check the reviews.
HilltopAds sells popunder, In-Page, video and banner traffic with a $100 minimum for most payment methods, according to its help center; a wire transfer starts at €500. Typical complaints: campaigns rejected without explanation, slow support and disputed deductions when a balance is refunded.
What to check before depositing:
- The category: 18+ content runs only in Non-Mainstream; iGaming and VPN are restricted in some countries.
- Your landing page and redirect chain: campaigns are checked with Google Safe Browsing.
- Refund terms for unspent balance, confirmed with the manager before a large top-up.
OnClickAOnClickA reviews
Rating: 2.8 out of 5 on Trustpilot, based on 46 reviews, as of October 7, 2026. Opinions are polarised: 59% of reviews give 1 star and 35% give 5 stars.
According to third-party reviews, OnClickA starts at $45–50 and accepts TON, USDT, ETH and BTC. These figures are not confirmed by the network. As with ClickAdilla, forum users on BlackHatWorld complain about bot traffic and refunds.
What to check before depositing:
- The minimum and supported coins in your account.
- The rules for your vertical: crypto, gambling and nutra are not confirmed as allowed.
- Delivery, moderation and refund terms on a minimal smoke test; judge profitability only on a separate, larger test.
MethodHow to read ad network reviews
Look at the pattern, not the score. A 3.4 can come from a network that rejects many campaigns in one vertical but pays out reliably. Group complaints by topic: withdrawals, moderation, traffic quality, support. Withdrawal complaints weigh the most, because that is where you lose money, not just time.
Check dates and context. A wave of 1-star reviews from two years ago says less than three recent ones. Read what the reviewer advertised: a rejection for a banned vertical is not a scam, it is the rules working.
Compare several sources. Trustpilot reviews are not all verified, and forums are full of affiliate marketers with their own interests. A problem that shows up on Trustpilot and on a niche forum at the same time is worth taking seriously.
How to test a network on a small budget
Split the test in two: a cheap technical smoke test that shows whether the network works for you at all, and a performance test that shows whether it pays.
- Top up the minimum for a smoke test
Deposit only the entry amount for your payment method. The minimum deposit table shows the thresholds. For a technical check (moderation passes, traffic is delivered in your GEO, the tracker records it) $50–100 is usually enough.
- Pass moderation with a clean campaign
Use an offer and a landing page that clearly fit the network's rules, so the test is about traffic, not about rules.
- Track everything yourself
Send traffic through your own tracker and compare clicks and conversions with the network's stats. If the numbers diverge, check several possible causes: page and tracker load, how each side defines a click, time zones, filters, repeat visits and bot traffic.
- Plan the performance test separately
Whether the network is profitable is a different question. Tie that budget to your goal (CPA or ROAS), the number of conversions you need to observe and the loss you are ready to accept, and set a stop rule in advance. $50–100 is usually not enough to judge profitability.
- Test the withdrawal
Request a refund of the remainder before you scale. How fast and how fully it comes back tells you more than any review.
- Scale step by step
Top up in small portions and keep screenshots of terms and chats with the manager.
How not to lose money on withdrawal
- Withdraw the test remainder before you scale, not after.
- Read the banned verticals before moderation and before payment.
- Keep screenshots of terms and your chat with the manager.
- Compare ratings on Trustpilot and niche forums, focusing on withdrawal complaints.
- Do not keep a large balance in the network.
- Ask about withdrawal methods and the minimum in advance.
Tell our bot your vertical, GEO and budget, and we will suggest networks that fit and what to watch out for. You work in your own account.

Are these your own ratings?
No. These are the networks' Trustpilot scores, recorded on the stated date.
How much should I spend on a first test?
For a technical smoke test (moderation passes, traffic is delivered in your GEO, your tracker records it) the network's minimum deposit for your payment method, usually $50–100, is enough. Judging profitability is a separate performance test: its budget depends on your goal, the number of conversions you need to observe and the loss you can accept, and $50–100 is usually not enough. Withdraw the remainder before scaling to check how the network handles refunds.
How can I tell bot traffic from a bad offer?
Compare the network's click stats with your tracker. If clicks match but there are no conversions, look at the offer, landing page and funnel first. If the network shows far more clicks than your tracker, check several possible causes before drawing conclusions: page and tracker load, how each side defines a click, time zones, filters, repeat visits and bot traffic. Visits with no engagement at all are worth raising with the network's support, with your tracker data attached.
