How it is used

It tells the buyer the smallest rendering the creative must survive, so text and logos stay legible at that width.

Example

Where the field sits in a payload, with everything else left out:

{
  "id": "req-1",
  "imp": [
    {
      "banner": {
        "format": [
          {
            "wmin": 320
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}

Common mistakes

  • Confusing it with the removed Banner.wmin, which set the low end of a size range for the whole banner rather than a minimum for a ratio.
