The advertising landscape has always been fast-moving and responsive to changing trends but never has it been more competitive. Despite more channels to advertise on than ever before, consumers’ tolerance for advertising is at an all-time low. In fact, 89% said they either disliked ads or did not engage with them. This decline in ads tolerance has been driven by a combination of factors.

What Are Rewarded Video Ads? Many apps, and especially mobile games, have rewarded ad units, in which users are exposed to an ad in exchange for a benefit (extra lives, in- app currency, etc.). These ads are often video ads, but a rewarded ad can come in any format, including a playable/interactive ad, a full-screen interstitial, or a 360° ad, among others. Rewarded ads are among the most popular ad formats because users gain a reward for viewing the ad (beyond just getting access to the app for free). 54% of mobile gamers prefer rewarded ads, while 50% of mobile gamers like rewarded ad formats overall.
