NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Oct 18, 2017) - Smart (formerly known as Smart AdServer), the holistic ad monetization platform, is now offering its publishers access to more advertising demand, thereby boosting revenue potential. That's thanks to Smart's server side integration with Rubicon Project (
The integration was made possible through Rubicon Project's leading XAPI technology, which connects any ad sever to Rubicon Project's global advertising exchange. For Smart's publishers, integration is as easy as checking a box in the Smart interface. Doing so enables Smart publishers to reach a broader array of advertising dollars -- giving the publisher maximum yield while maintaining the control that is endemic to every Smart publishing partner. The service is available in all territories and all ad formats.
"Today's announcement with Smart brings publishers on Smart's platform new advertising revenue potential without having to spend valuable time and resources on technical integrations," said James Brown, Managing Director EMEA, Rubicon Project. "We look forward to making the supply from Smart's premium publishers, including outstream video, rich media and coveted in app inventory, available programmatically to the hundreds of thousands of agencies, brands and DSPs connecting to Rubicon Project's leading global exchange."
"Our publishers want to be able to quickly add demand partners with no integration effort and no risk to the user experience, such as the latency often associated with header bidding," said Cyrille Geffray, CEO, Smart. "With Rubicon Project, publishers on our platform can now maximize revenue by holistically managing a unified auction with their chosen demand partners - DSP, SSP or exchanges."
