Ad Zone
A defined area of a layout reserved for advertising content — with its own size, duration and inventory rules.
In Spot, an ad zone is a widget you place inside a layout. It defines the inventory available to advertisers: dimensions, duration, allowed creative formats and which stores or player groups it appears on. Advertisers in the portal can only run creatives that match the zone's specifications. This separation lets retailers run their normal content and ads in the same layout without cross-contamination.
