CPE Meaning

What is CPE?

Cost Per Engagement (CPE) is a pricing model used in digital advertising where advertisers pay based on the active engagements or interactions users have with their ads. This could include actions such as likes, shares, comments, video views, or other specific interactions that are defined as valuable by the advertiser. CPE allows advertisers to focus on the quality of interactions rather than just the quantity, like clicks or impressions. It ensures that payment is made only when users engage in meaningful ways with the content, which can be more indicative of interest and potential conversion. This model is particularly suited for campaigns aimed at boosting engagement and fostering a deeper connection with the audience. In a CPE model, the total cost of the campaign is divided by the number of engagements to determine the cost per engagement. This method helps advertisers understand the value of their investment in creating interactive and engaging content. It also encourages the design of highly engaging ads that are tailored to spark user interaction, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the advertising effort.

CPE Example

A mobile game developer runs a Google Ads campaign to drive app installs and in-app engagements. The campaign spends $2,000 and results in 1,000 engagements (e.g., app installs, in-app purchases).

CPE = Total Cost / Number of Engagements
CPE = $2,000 / 1,000
CPE = $2

This means the cost per engagement is $2, indicating the cost-effectiveness of the campaign in driving user actions.
