Digital advertising is no longer siloed, and successful audience targeting requires finding ideal audiences across their digitally-fragmented day, be it playing games on a phone, shopping on a laptop, or streaming shows on-demand. Consumers are more engaged than ever across devices, but with fraud rates averaging in the double-digits, ad spend and brand reputation are at risk across an ever-growing number of platforms.
“Fraudsters are operating across every device and channel, 24/7 — there is no such thing as a ‘day off’ for bad actors,” said Jalal Nasir, CEO of Pixalate. “We are proud to offer the world's first accredited cross-platform solution to buyers and platform with end-to-end protection across the entire ecosystem including OTT, mobile in-app, mobile web and desktop.”
“We congratulate Pixalate on adding to its portfolio of MRC accredited measurements,” said George W. Ivie, Executive Director and CEO of the MRC. “Today’s marketers are tasked with protecting investments across a wide variety of digital environments, and these additions demonstrate Pixalate’s position as a leader in helping marketers to manage these risks.”
“As programmatic advertising has grown exponentially across channels, calls for cross-screen quality measurement and risk management solutions have grown louder,” said Rebecca Skrak, Senior Vice President Operations at RhythmOne. “We are proud to work with Pixalate to guard against invalid traffic and improve quality throughout the programmatic ecosystem.”
