About bidding eCPM floors

AdMob provides an eCPM floor for bidders within the mediation group that works with the extended mediation segmentation capabilities. You can also use bidding eCPM floors in our A/B testing tool to determine the impact of setting different floors in a mediation group.

When you set a bidding eCPM floor to a mediation group, that floor applies to all bidders in the auction and overrides the ad unit floor for all bidding traffic in a mediation group.
