Quantcast HTML5 banners — frequently asked
What is the file size limit for Quantcast HTML5 banners?
Quantcast HTML5 banners must be 450 KB or smaller. The limit applies to the packaged ZIP archive submitted to the ad server — every image, font and script bundled inside counts toward it. Banner Check measures the compressed weight and flags an error if it exceeds 450 KB.
How do I implement the click handler for Quantcast HTML5 banners?
Quantcast uses a standard clickTag. Declare var clickTag = ""; in index.html and open it on click with window.open(window.clickTag). The ad server injects the real destination URL at serve time, so leave the value empty.
Why does Quantcast reject HTML5 banners?
Quantcast rejects HTML5 banners for a package over 450 KB; a missing or malformed clickTag; a missing <meta name="ad.size"> tag; banner dimensions that don't match the declared size; or external assets that fail to load when the ad serves. Banner Check checks all of these in your browser before you upload.
Does this validator upload my banner files?
No. The validator runs entirely in your browser — your banner files never leave your machine. There is no upload, no account and no backend.
Preflight Quantcast creatives before you upload
Ad networks reject HTML5 creatives for small, avoidable reasons — an oversized package, a missing clickTag, the wrong banner dimensions, or an external font URL. This free validator checks your banner against Quantcast's real requirements in the browser, so you catch problems before the ad server does. It is built by Viewst, an AI ad-production platform that exports Quantcast-ready HTML5 banners at scale.
