SouthernX has partnered with nugg.ad, Europe’s largest targeting platform, to provide real-time technology for audience targeting and data management. Powered by machine learning, the technology enables nugg.ad partners to deliver target group-specific digital advertising for display, video and mobile advertising for both direct sales and programmatic platforms. Advertisers and publishers also benefit from being able to analyse user groups and behavior; and therefore make informed decisions on their buying or selling strategy.
This is the first time that nugg.ad will be utilising their technology in Sub-Saharan Africa, and SouthernX will now be able to offer enhanced real-time analytics to advertisers and agencies.
“Moving to South Africa with the nugg.ad product is a major step for us and we are excited to have won SouthernX as our first partner. Together we offer the African digital market a versatile and efficient targeting solution which is accompanied by our consulting expertise and certified data protection services” says Stéphane Printz, Director Sales & Business Development at nugg.ad.
Advertisers will now be able to target users through a myriad of information including lifestyle, past purchase behaviour and demographic information like age, gender, income and language. Targeting can be further drilled down to focus on users who have a propensity to purchase certain products and that show interest in certain categories.
Publishers will be able to access the data for users that visit their websites, which also allows publisher’s direct sales teams to better monetise each impression as they are now able to sell brands their actual target audiences, in a premium environment.
“Partnering with nugg.ad will allow us to provide an invaluable service to our clients, which is not currently being offered by any other local RTB service. We’re looking forward to the results that the new technology layer will generate for our advertisers and publishers alike” says Paula Raubenheimer, MD of SouthernX.
