This guide shows you how to use Google Mobile Ads SDK to load and display ads from maio using [mediation](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/mediation.md.txt), covering waterfall integrations. It covers how to add maio to an ad unit's mediation configuration, and how to integrate the maio SDK and adapter into an iOS app. The dashboard interface for maio uses Japanese text for its labels, buttons, and descriptions, and the screenshots in this guide have not been translated. In this guide's descriptions and instructions however, labels and buttons are referenced with their English language equivalents. "URL スキーム," for example, is "URL Scheme". ## Supported integrations and ad formats The mediation adapter for maio has the following capabilities: | Integration || |---|---| | Bidding | | | Waterfall | Yes | | Banner | Yes | | Interstitial | Yes | | Rewarded | Yes | | Native | | ## Prerequisites Before you continue, verify the following: - iOS deployment target of 15.0 or later. - Latest Google Mobile Ads SDK version. - [Set up mediation](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/mediation.md.txt). ## Step 1: Set up configurations in maio UI First, [sign up](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScSrlf8JTwTdvJjaLjc3v4z8PfunngKALSBdRf3EfyctdMY3Q/viewform) or [log in](https://maio.jp/publisher/login) to your maio account. Click the **Application management** button on the left sidebar and click on **New app**. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/new-app.png) Select the tab corresponding to your preferred **Ad Type**. ### Interstitial Enter the **Name** of your app, select the platform and provide your **App URL** . Select **Video interstitial** as the **Ad Type** , and then click **Update**. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/interstitial_iOS.png) **Note:** Interstitial ads from maio are skippable by default. ### Rewarded Enter the **Name** of your app, select the platform and provide your **App URL** . Select **Video Rewards** as the **Ad Type** , and then click **Update**. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/rewarded_iOS.png) **Note:** Rewarded Video ads from maio are **NOT** skippable by default. In the **Application Management** page, make a note of the **Media ID**. It's needed to set up your Ad Manager ad unit in the next section. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/media_id_iOS.png) In the **Zone Management** page, make a note of the **Zone ID**. It will also be needed to set up your Ad Manager ad unit in the next section. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/zone_id_iOS.png) (Waterfall only) In addition to **Media ID** and **Zone ID** , you will need **API ID** and **API KEY** to set up your ad unit ID for mediation. In **Reporting API page** , make a note of **API ID** and **API KEY** .
![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/api_id_key.png) > [!NOTE] > **Note:** (Waterfall only) If this is your first time setting up your maio account, you may need to contact maio's support team in order for your **API ID** and **API KEY** to be issued to you. ## Step 2: Set up maio demand in Ad Manager UI ### Configure mediation settings for your ad unit Sign in to your [Ad Manager account](https://admanager.google.com/home/). Navigate to **Delivery \> Yield groups** and click the **New yield group** button. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/gam-create-new-yield-group.png) Enter a unique **Name** for your yield group, set the **Status** to **Active** , select your **Ad Format** , and set the **Inventory type** to **Mobile App** . Under the **Targeting \> Inventory** section, select the ad unit under **Inventory** and **Mobile application** to which you want to add mediation.
Next, click the **Add yield partner** button. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/dfp_yield_partner_add.png) If you already have a **Yield partner** for maio, you can select it. Otherwise, select **Create a new yield partner**. Select **maio** as the **Ad network** , enter a unique **Name** and enable **Mediation**. Turn on **Automatic data collection** , and enter the **API ID** and **API KEY** obtained in the previous section. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/gam-create-company-mediation.png) Once the **Yield partner** is selected, choose **Mobile SDK Mediation** as the **Integration type** , **iOS** as the **Platform** , and **Active** as the **Status** . Enter the **Media ID** and **Zone ID** obtained in the previous section. Then, enter a **Default CPM** value. > [!IMPORTANT] > **Important:** The **Media ID** must be associated with the targeted app as in the maio UI. ![](https://developers.google.com/static/admob/images/mediation/maio/gam-add-yield-partner-mediation-iOS.png) Click **Save** at the bottom of the page when done. > [!NOTE] > **Note:** Automatic data collection takes a few days to gather data before it can accurately calculate a Dynamic CPM value for a mediation network. Once the eCPM can be calculated, it will be automatically updated on your behalf. ## Step 3: Import the maio SDK and adapter > [!NOTE] > **Note:** Failure to integrate the compatible maio and Google Mobile Ads SDK versions might lead to build issues. ### Recommended: Use Swift Package Manager Before you continue, you must have the minimum supported adapter version 2.2.0.0. To [add a package dependency](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/adding-package-dependencies-to-your-app#Add-a-package-dependency) to your project, follow these steps: 1. In Xcode, navigate to **File \> Add Package Dependencies...**. 2. In the prompt that appears, search the following package URL: https://github.com/googleads/googleads-mobile-ios-mediation-maio.git 3. In **Dependency Rule** , select **Branch**. 4. In the text field, enter `main`. ### Manual integration - Download the latest version of the [maio SDK](https://github.com/imobile-maio/maio-iOS-SDK/releases/). - Download the latest version of the maio adapter from the download link in the [Changelog](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/mediation/maio.md.txt#maio-ios-mediation-adapter-changelog), and link `maioAdapter.framework` in your project. ### Use CocoaPods > [!CAUTION] > **Caution:** Starting December 2, 2026, the [CocoaPods Specs > repository](https://blog.cocoapods.org/CocoaPods-Specs-Repo/) is in read-only mode. As of this date, Google Mobile Ads SDK no longer publishes updated versions of mediation adapters for iOS to CocoaPods.
- Add the following line to your project's Podfile: pod 'GoogleMobileAdsMediationMaio' - From the command line run: ```bash pod install --repo-update ``` ## Step 4: Add required code ### Implement SKAdNetwork Follow [maio's documentation](https://github.com/imobile/MaioSDK-v2-iOS?tab=readme-ov-file#skadnetworkid) to add the SKAdNetwork identifiers to your project's `Info.plist` file. ## Step 5: Test your implementation ### Enable test ads Make sure you [register your test device](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/test-ads.md.txt#enable_test_devices) for Ad Manager. Publishers using version 7.26.0 or higher of Google Mobile Ads SDK will automatically receive test ads from maio on phones and tablets registered as [test devices](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/test-ads.md.txt#enable_test_devices) when making requests. > [!IMPORTANT] > **Important:** Disable test mode for Ad Manager and maio before releasing your app. ### Verify test ads To verify that you are receiving test ads from maio, enable [single ad source testing](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/ad-inspector.md.txt#single_ad_source_testing) in ad inspector using the **maio (Waterfall)** ad source(s). ## Error codes If the adapter fails to receive an ad from maio, publishers can check the underlying error from the ad response using [`GADResponseInfo.adNetworkInfoArray`](https://developers.google.com/ad-manager/mobile-ads-sdk/ios/api/reference/Classes/GADResponseInfo.md.txt#adnetworkinfoarray) under the following classes: | Format | Class name | |---|---| | Interstitial | GADMMaioInterstitialAdapter | | Rewarded | GADMMaioRewardedAdapter | Here are the codes and accompanying messages thrown by the maio adapter when an ad fails to load: | Error code | Reason | |---|---| | 0-10 | maio returned an SDK-specific error. See maio's [code](https://github.com/imobile-maio/maio-iOS-SDK/blob/master/Maio.framework/Headers/MaioDelegate.h) for more details. | | 101 | maio does not yet have an ad available. | | 102 | Invalid server parameters (e.g. missing Placement ID). | | 103 | The maio adapter does not support the ad format being requested. | | 104 | An ad is already loaded for this network configuration. | | 105 | Filter age-restricted requests for maio SDK because it cannot receive age-restricted signals. | ## maio iOS Mediation Adapter Changelog #### [Version 2.2.3.0](https://dl.google.com/googleadmobadssdk/mediation/ios/maio/MaioAdapter-2.2.3.0.zip) - Verified compatibility with maio SDK version 2.2.3.
