watch ads

Sit through promotions

Watch ads is a phrase appearing in apps and games that offer rewards for viewing advertisements.

The transaction is explicit: you give attention, you get virtual currency or extra lives.

Watch ads to earn coins.

The phrase has become shorthand for the freemium economy's basic bargain—your eyeballs for their content.
