The answer

There is no problem with increasing the price for the sake of profit, whether the advertisements are paid or free. However, if your work is limited to marketing without purchasing the product and reselling it, then agree with the product owner on a known commission or fee to be added to the selling price for each product. The buyer is not required to know the details of this price.
