I applied a few weeks ago but have not heard anything back. I’d like to test it out and give feedback since it’s one of only a few choices that we have for ad plugins.
Also, I haven’t been able to find any forum posts for people to discuss it.
Hmmm, supposedly everyone who signed up was reached out to. We just posted an update on the blog too:

Thanks Rob. Maybe I signed up too late? Is there anyone I can contact directly about enrolling?
There should be a signup link at the bottom of the post.
Rob
That’s the link I signed up with, and as I said above, nobody has responded. Who else can I contact to enroll?
Have you checked your spam folders?
As of now, that’s the only way to sign up.
Rob
I signed up and I got an email offering to have a Skype call. I don’t need a Skype call, I just need the details on how to use this ad network.
@elbowroomapps, hopefully we will have something you can investigate shortly. However, I would still consider taking up the skype call. I’m sure the is information to be shared both directions which will help shape the product.
Rob
@Rob, I went ahead and used the sign up form again. I’m hoping I get some form of response.
@elbowroomapps, I think you should follow Rob’s advice. It would be good to get a dialog going with the developers behind Corona Ads.
I’m also hoping that other people can chime in about their experience so far with the beta.
It’s been a week and still no response from Corona Staff about either of the 2 applications I submitted for the private beta. This is pretty frustrating as someone who has been a loyal Corona user for almost three years.
We have a lot of developers to contact. Please be patient.
Rob
I just want to provide a little feedback here. I think most of my frustration stems from not getting *any* sort of message after signing up twice, even though it was a month apart. My only recourse was to ask a question on the forums.
For the next beta program I suggest at least sending out an automated reply saying something along the lines of “Thanks for signing up. We are manually contacting developers so it may take some time. If you have any further questions you can contact the team at <email address for beta signup>”. That way at least I know I can contact the people on that team and not have to bother another staff member who is not involved with that process.
Even then however, why does it take over a month to contact the developers who have signed up?
I’m checking into it.
Rob
Thanks Rob
We have had tremendous response to the closed beta. Unfortunately, to contact each developer right now is a manual process and it’s taking longer than we like. You’re further down the list that we’ve gotten to.
We are hoping to get something out to the closed beta community soon and whatever information you need will likely be in the announcement on the blogs. So watch the blog in addition to your email.
As of right now there really isn’t anything you can integrate or get an early start on until we announce it on the blogs.
Rob
Thanks Rob. So you’re saying that the closed beta hasn’t actually begun – since there’s nothing to integrate yet?
Yes. All you have missed so far is an introductory email. We hope to have something soon.
