Alfi Inc., a company headquartered in Miami Beach, is donating advertising space on its Digital Out of Home (DOOH) screens for local businesses that are struggling to continue operations as the community emerges from the COVID-19 lockdown. Many businesses were not able to continue any meaningful business operations during this time. As such, Alfi Inc. has committed up to 50% of their advertising inventory to help save those businesses on the brink of collapse.

We recognize that all businesses must pull together as we restart the economy. The success of every business in our community is, in part, dependent on our commitment to give back when we can and help each other find stability. Our DOOH screens are placed for free in Ride-Share vehicles like Uber and Lyft. As they begin to take people around the city, we thought why not use this as an opportunity to let people know which local businesses are open. Our Technology will allow us to inform riders about the businesses that are promoted on our screens and open for business-specific to their current location.

- Paul Pereira, CEO Alfi Inc


Alfi Inc. has allocated up to 1000 digital screens to be placed at no cost in Miami-Dade County Ride-share vehicles. When the tablets are not being used to help local businesses, drivers actually share in the advertising revenue generated. Passengers benefit from local information, news, and entertainment.

Alfi is committing over $1 million per month in advertising and branding space to the businesses who have been hit the hardest by the lockdown and are just now able to open back up to the public. For businesses that qualify, Alfi would encourage a simple message with the business name, the nature of its products or services, and hours of operation.

AppLovin’s Performance-Based Buying for CTV Advertising Delivers New Incremental Channel for Scalable App Growth

Business Wire | May 04, 2023

AppLovin Corporation (NASDAQ: APP) (“AppLovin”), a leading marketing platform, is bringing performance-based buying to connected TV (CTV) within its powerful mobile user acquisition platform, AppDiscovery. App marketers can now tap into massive CTV supply across hundreds of free ad-supported streaming TV (FAST) apps and 3,000+ channels from a single source of access and only pay for installs. CTV will be the fastest-growing medium this year, with ad spending surging 21% to reach more than $25 billion. With 93% of U.S. internet users today reachable by CTV, it’s a prime time for app marketers to add this channel to their marketing mix to reach audiences at scale and achieve their ROI goals. “We're excited to successfully bridge the gap between mobile marketing and CTV through a performance buying model,” said Idil Canal, General Manager of AdTech, AppLovin. “With AppLovin, marketers can easily test and rapidly scale CTV campaigns to acquire high-quality users by accessing a vast audience with targeted, relevant ads — all while prioritizing installs over impressions.” CTV advertising on AppDiscovery is seamless. Advertisers can run mobile and CTV ad campaigns, and even leverage AppLovin’s industry-leading in-house creative team for custom, high-performing CTV ads — all on the same platform. Since launching AppLovin’s performance CTV campaigns last year, leading credit-building app Kikoff has seen a 3X increase in install rates, and as a result has scaled its CTV budget by 6X, making it a significant part of its app marketing portfolio. “AppLovin’s CTV campaigns brought new momentum to our UA efforts. Not only do they allow us to further differentiate our offering in the marketplace by telling a more complete story to a larger audience, they also deliver on our UA performance goals. We’re excited about the continued partnership and growth potential,” said Max Wang, Growth Marketing Manager at Kikoff. With AppDiscovery, advertisers and app marketers can: Run CPI-based performance campaigns. CTV campaigns are priced on a Cost Per Install (CPI) basis rather than at a fixed Cost Per Mille (CPM), so marketers can ensure cost-effective ROI. Automate and optimize campaigns. The platform automates the buying process across mobile and CTV inventory and optimizes at the individual channel level to improve performance. Manage mobile and CTV campaigns from a single access source. CTV campaigns run in parallel with mobile campaigns in AppDiscovery, providing a seamless UI, reporting, and brand experience across multiple channels. Utilize custom, top-performing creatives optimized for CTV. As a value add, AppLovin’s SparkLabs in-house creative team is available to customers for custom, high-performing ads, eliminating the need to develop resource-intensive creatives on their own. Access real-time, transparent analytics: Trackable return on ad spend (ROAS) and channel name visibility ensures there is no guess work in where ads run. “AppLovin’s AppDiscovery has been a strong user acquisition channel for us on mobile. Their recent addition of performance CTV campaigns presented an incremental channel to grow our user base at our target price points – all while using a single source of access. We’ve been delighted with the platform’s potential and appreciate the team’s constant optimization efforts,” said Terence Fung, Chief Strategy Officer at Storm8.

PR Newswire | May 18, 2023

Silverpush, a global leader in cookieless advertising solutions has recently announced its strategic partnership with 4D, the advanced contextual targeting and insights platform, built by customer experience business, Silverbullet. This partnership is a part of Silverpush's efforts to advance its omnichannel strategy with Mirrors and enhance its vision for a cookieless future in the advertising landscape. Growing concerns and stricter regulations regarding consumer privacy have prompted Safari and Firefox to ban third-party cookies, and Chrome is following suit. IAB predicts that publishers could suffer losses of up to $10 billion in advertising revenue once third-party cookies are phased out entirely. In reaction, digital marketers are scrambling to identify substitutes that enable them to deliver targeted advertising while upholding data privacy standards. Silverpush has already established its position in the advertising industry with its advanced contextual intelligence technology, Mirrors, which includes cookieless solutions and in-video context detection capabilities. Through this new partnership with 4D, the company is taking further steps to expand its cookieless offerings across various digital platforms, such as OTT, CTV, and Programmatic. This move is expected to have a significant impact on the industry's shift away from traditional cookie-based advertising. "By joining hands with 4D, Silverpush's clients and marketing partners will be able to identify brand-appropriate content beyond the usual frameworks and target it contextually with greater precision," stated Kartik Mehta, COO & CRO at Silverpush. This move will enable the company to offer crucial contextual insights by detecting non-endemic keywords and contexts that significantly impact campaign performance. This valuable information can be leveraged by advertisers to enhance the delivery and effectiveness of advertising campaigns. "We couldn't be more excited to partner with Silverpush, as we align our businesses to pave a better future for the privacy-era. In a world where customer experience and trust continue to remain in high focus, it's imperative that businesses look to adopt advanced contextual solutions, to take full advantage of reaching the right consumers, in the environments they trust, in the moments that matter - all without the use of cookies or personal identifiers." Umberto Torrielli, Co-founder and CSO at Silverbullet and 4D. About Silverpush Silverpush is an advertising technology firm providing cookieless AI-Powered hyper-contextual solutions to advertisers to reach their target audience at the relevant moment.
