## ❓ How to make money with bot-ads ?

If you'd like to generate passive income with bot-ads, it's **totally free and requires no registration**.

{% hint style="warning" %}
There are, however, a few rules to observe:

* No automatic clicks (everything is registered and verified when the winnings are awarded)
* No API spam (your IP will be rate-limited automatically)
  {% endhint %}

To generate this income, your aim is to generate as many clicks as possible on your ads, by displaying them on your bot in one way or another.

### <mark style="color:yellow;">Each generated click earns you</mark> <mark style="color:yellow;"></mark><mark style="color:yellow;">`$0.10`</mark>

To do that you just have to make the following api request:

<pre><code><strong>https://bot-ads.ovh/api/system/getlink?bot_id=${YOUR_ID}
</strong></code></pre>

Remember to replace “YOUR\_ID” with the identifier of the account to which the money will be credited, so that you can then withdraw it.\\

{% hint style="danger" %}
If you enter the wrong user ID, such as the bot's, you'll have to ask the support team to transfer the data. You'll need proof.
{% endhint %}

Bot-Ads api will then return such a response:

```
{
    "success": true,
    "ad_id": 12345,
    "description": "Check out this amazing bot !",
    "redirect_url": "https://example.com/ad-link",
    "discord_format": "[Check out this amazing bot!](https://example.com/ad-link)"
}
```

Your objective is then to display this link in such a way as to encourage your users to click on it.

{% hint style="info" %}
Remember to generate a new link each time you want to display an advertisement.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
Any text such as “click here to get nitro” is strictly prohibited and will be heavily penalized (suspension of your IP + withdrawal of your winnings).
{% endhint %}
