How to Create a Video Ad

Video ads deliver dynamic, engaging content that captures user attention through automated muted playback, customizable CTA overlays, and click-through redirects.

AdFuz supports both Self-Hosted Video Uploads and Third-Party Video Streaming URLs (YouTube & Vimeo).


To build a new Video Ad, navigate to AdFuz > Ads > + Add New Ad and select the Video tab.

Ad Type: [ Image ] [ ● Video ] [ Script ]

  1. In the Video Source toggle, select Upload.
  2. Click the Upload Video box to select an .mp4, .webm, or .mov file from your media library.
  3. Maximum recommended file size: < 15 MB for rapid client-side buffering.
