QPS
Queries per second. How many bid requests an exchange buying account (a seat) is allowed to see. Targeting does not shrink that intake by itself.
QPS (queries per second) is the bid-request allotment on a seat. Every auction that enters the bidder consumes it. Front-end traffic templates and filters decide which auctions enter. Campaign targeting decides which of those arrivals may bid.
That split matters. Exclude a bad placement in targeting and you stop spending on it. The request can still fill the pipe and crowd out better auctions. Reshaping intake is an account-manager change to templates or list filters. It is not a public Adprime Zero campaign field.
Buying more QPS without shaping the pipe just feeds more remnant into the same bidder. Shape first. Raise entitlement last.
We will not publish a QPS number for this product page. Seat contracts are not a buyer metric, and this glossary is not a credential sheet.
