expo-kakao-ad

An Expo module for integrating Kakao Ad SDK into React Native applications to track advertising attribution and conversions.

Overview

This module provides a simple interface to track user events and conversions for Kakao advertising campaigns. It supports various tracking events commonly used in mobile app analytics and advertising attribution.

Features

• 🎯 Track user engagement events (login, registration, purchases)
• 📊 Support for conversion tracking with detailed product information
• 🛒 E-commerce events (cart actions, wishlist, purchases)
• 📱 Cross-platform support (iOS and Android)
• 🔧 Easy configuration through Expo config plugins

Installation

npm install @mahicoltd/expo-kakao-ad

Note: This module is built with create-expo-module and works with both Expo managed projects and bare React Native projects that have Expo modules configured.

Configuration

Add the plugin configuration to your app.json or app.config.js:

{
  "expo": {
    "plugins": [
      [
        "expo-kakao-ad",
        {
          "trackId": "YOUR_KAKAO_TRACK_ID_HERE"
        }
      ]
    ]
  }
}

Important: Replace YOUR_KAKAO_TRACK_ID_HERE with your actual Kakao tracking ID provided by Kakao advertising platform.

After adding the plugin, rebuild your app:

npx expo prebuild --clean
npx expo run:ios
# or
npx expo run:android

Basic Setup

import ExpoKakaoAd from "expo-kakao-ad";
import { AppState, Platform } from "react-native";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export default function App() {
  useEffect(() => {
    // Initialize tracking when app starts
    ExpoKakaoAd.activate();

    // Re-activate on iOS when app becomes active
    const subscription = AppState.addEventListener("change", (nextAppState) => {
      if (nextAppState === "active") {
        Platform.OS === "ios" && ExpoKakaoAd.activate();
      }
    });

    return () => {

Complete Example

import ExpoKakaoAd from "expo-kakao-ad";
import {
  Button,
  Platform,
  SafeAreaView,
  ScrollView,
  Text,
  View,
  AppState,
} from "react-native";
import { useEffect } from "react";

export default function App() {
  useEffect(() => {
    ExpoKakaoAd.activate();

    const subscription = AppState.addEventListener("change", (nextAppState) => {
      if (nextAppState === "active") {
        Platform.OS === "ios" && ExpoKakaoAd.activate();
      }
    });

    return () => {
      subscription.remove();
    };
  }, []);

  return (
    <SafeAreaView style={styles.container}>
      <ScrollView style={styles.container}>
        <Text style={styles.header}>Kakao Ad Event Test</Text>

        <View style={styles.group}>
          <Text style={styles.groupHeader}>Event Testing</Text>

          <Button
            title="Complete Registration"
            onPress={() => ExpoKakaoAd.sendCompleteRegistrationEvent()}
          />
          <View style={styles.buttonSpacing} />

          <Button
            title="Login"
            onPress={() => ExpoKakaoAd.sendLoginEvent()}
          />
          <View style={styles.buttonSpacing} />

          <Button
            title="Purchase"
            onPress={() => {
              ExpoKakaoAd.sendPurchaseEvent("tag", 6, 3000, "KRW", [
                {
                  id: "id-1",
                  name: "ruler",
                  quantity: 3,
                  price: 1500,
                },
                {
                  id: "id-2",
                  name: "pencil",
                  quantity: 5,
                  price: 400,
                }
              ]);
            }}
          />
        </View>
      </ScrollView>
    </SafeAreaView>
  );
}

const styles = {
  header: { fontSize: 30, margin: 20 },
  groupHeader: { fontSize: 20, marginBottom: 20 },
  group: { margin: 20, backgroundColor: "#fff", borderRadius: 10, padding: 20 },
  container: { flex: 1, backgroundColor: "#eee" },
  buttonSpacing: { height: 10 },
};

iOS App State Handling

On iOS, you should re-activate tracking when the app becomes active:

useEffect(() => {
  const subscription = AppState.addEventListener("change", (nextAppState) => {
    if (nextAppState === "active") {
      Platform.OS === "ios" && ExpoKakaoAd.activate();
    }
  });

  return () => subscription.remove();
}, []);
