There are 2 options for interstitial ads: landing page and image.

Landing page

For this type, you only paste the URL. No ad creatives needed.

Image

The recommended size of the image depends on the device:

💡 Create separate campaigns for different devices and choose a banner with an appropriate size as above.

💡 You can use a larger image and crop it when uploading.
