About
One of the most established mobile in-app advertising and mediation platforms, with deep penetration in the mobile gaming vertical and a large direct SDK footprint
Chartboost is an in-app programmatic advertising and monetization platform that enables developers to monetize their mobile apps and connects advertisers to global in-app inventory. Through its Chartboost Direct offering, it provides publishers with the infrastructure to bring brand demand into mobile apps at scale, with real-time bidding designed to maximize demand and increase average revenue per daily active user. The platform supports all established ad formats while investing in emerging ones, and offers publishers fully transparent access to granular analytics to better understand and inform campaign performance strategy. Chartboost has partnered with LiveRamp to make publisher audiences addressable through LiveRamp's authenticated ecosystem, integrating the RampID identifier so publishers can transact on first-party data with marketers and demand-side platforms. Chartboost was acquired by LoopMe, an AI-powered adtech company, in December 2024, and was subsequently added to LoopMe's Intelligent Marketplace offering.
