AudioMob and Targetspot Combine to Revolutionise In-Game Advertising

Online, in-app gaming is an estimated $65billion (£51billion) industry with huge, highly engaged audiences ranging across all age groups, gender and geos. Gaming has never been more popular than in the current moment with 45% more time now devoted to the medium since the Covid-19 crisis. Yet in-app advertising, which forms a significant portion of this revenue, has always posed a challenge for both publisher and advertiser, where traditional video and display advertising can be disruptive to the gaming experience. This can sometimes have a negative impact on both the developer (with users leaving the game) and the advertiser, where a disruptive format can potentially alienate the consumer and cause some negative feeling toward the brand.
