Last updated 10 October 2026. Figures are pulled from Vrume's own network data and refreshed when the underlying numbers move.

| Scale and known issues | Small by design. Hundreds of zones, not tens of thousands of sites. Deep in Nordics/DACH/US dating and adult members-area; thin in Tier-3 volume. | Large, mainstream, Tier-3 weighted. Trustpilot 3.1/5 with 39% one-star reviews and repeated 2025–2026 bot-traffic complaints; Clickadu replies that low conversions do not prove bots. |
Clickadu facts compiled 10 October 2026 from the sources listed below. Where sources disagree the page says so. Minimum deposits and payment methods change most often; check the network's own signup page before relying on them. Found an error? Tell us and it will be corrected.
You buy mainstream pops and push into Tier-3 GEOs at scale (India, Indonesia, Brazil, Pakistan) for mVAS, sweeps, utilities or apps. That is Clickadu's lane and not Vrume's.
You buy dating, cams, OnlyFans or adult offers into Tier-1 and European GEOs. Clickadu's adult acceptance is unclear and its volume is Tier-3; Vrume's supply is adult-friendly by design, Tier-1 and Nordic/DACH heavy, and priced per click on named zones. If the complaint pattern around unexplained clicks worries you, Vrume's answer is structural: no exchange, no RON, every zone listed.
Run the same offer, GEO and tracker on both for one week. Judge on cost per conversion in your tracker, never on CPM or CPC floor. On Vrume that test is one $500 deposit on a single GEO; the dating benchmarks and case studies tell you what a good result looks like before you start.

Sources conflict: Affroom says adult is not allowed, ATDb says non-mainstream verticals are accepted. Check with Clickadu directly. Vrume accepts adult, dating, cams and creator offers as its core business.
On minimum deposit, yes ($100 vs $500). On cost per click the comparison is apples to oranges: Clickadu's volume is Tier-3 pops and push; Vrume's is Tier-1 email, members-area and direct-link clicks. Compare on cost per conversion in your tracker, not on floor price.
For SOI/DOI dating into Europe and North America, Vrume has the published conversion data (22–52% email CVR, $2.67–$11.22 eCPA by GEO). For dating into India, Indonesia or LatAm on pops and push, Clickadu has the volume.
Push volume on the Vrume network has not been meaningful, so it is not sold. Vrume publishes what it has rather than listing formats that do not serve.
