Challenge

A leading performance marketing agency uses highly targeted rewarded campaigns to help mobile marketers find their best customers among audiences who have opted in to receive relevant offers from brands. After signing up for a new subscription, registering for a free trial, or completing a survey, the user is directed to a rewards page. Using the traditional performance model, brands only pay when the desired action is taken.

Over time, the Agency noticed a correlation between reward aficionados completing a form or survey, and mobile gamers. Responsible for driving top-of-the-funnel conversions for a diverse portfolio of brands, the Agency wanted a mobile marketing partner that could help them acquire a significant volume of reward-seekers through in-app games and hit day one 100% ROAS.

"LifeStreet has been a great DSP partner for InMobi Exchange, and we are proud to be able to support their agency and brand clients with their in-app advertising efforts. We have helped LifeStreet consistently achieve the highest ROAS amongst all their exchange partners with access to our rewarded and interstitial supply on premium lifestyle and gaming apps. We are excited to continually work with them to meet and exceed their in-app ad campaign goals."
