Receptiv Announces Three Part Media Guarantee to Ensure Reliable, Safe and Engaged Media

Key Partners report Receptiv Platform Engagement Levels Double Google and Facebook, with Viewability and Human Attention Scores Similar to Traditional TV Viewership.

NEW YORK – ReceptivTM, the leading mobile video advertising platform focused on delivering high performing video across mobile environments, announced a three part media guarantee that ensures all mobile video inventory is reliable, brand safe and — an industry-first — engaged. With an expected $147B to be spent on mobile in 2018, viewability, fraud, and safety remain chief concerns for marketers. But above all else, brands need to identify the mobile content environments their audience values most, from an ever-expanding universe of choices.

Receptiv’s Reliable, Safe, Engaged (RSE) guarantee is structured around the most critical performance indicators for a valuable mobile video campaign, and pledges make-good impressions for those that don’t meet the commitment criteria of at least 90% viewability score, less than 2% invalid traffic (IVT) or non-human traffic (NHT), and 100% brand safe for all managed service campaigns. Impressions are qualified through a series of proprietary measures and a network of best-in-breed partners, including MOAT, comScore, Nielsen Digital Ad Ratings, and TAG.

“With ad fraud on pace to become a $50M problem in the next 10 years, and declining viewability scores, brands are demanding that their ad dollars are being spent on impressions that you can see; and that those impressions are being viewed by a human in a positive environment that doesn’t contradict the message,” said Ari Brandt, CEO of Receptiv. “Our rigorous evaluation process and partners like ComScore combine for a network made entirely of reliable, safe inventory that meets the audience where and when they’re most engaged, so the real value of this guarantee is in the confidence and security we can offer agencies and the brands they represent.”
