CPM calculator formula

Divide spend by impressions and multiply by 1,000 to calculate CPM.

02

Keep scope and currency consistent

Use spend and impressions from the same platform, campaign, attribution window, and reporting definition.

03

Separate delivery cost from performance

A lower CPM does not automatically mean better traffic, conversion, revenue, or margin.

04

Keep precision until the display

The calculator uses full-precision arithmetic internally and rounds currency only at the result boundary.
