Anzu Partners Integral Ad Science to Legitimize Gaming Ads

— July 29, 2022 — Marketing
Anzu, a leading in-game advertising platform, has teamed up with verification standard company Integral Ad Science to legitimize gaming ads by standardizing measurement tools, further establishing it as a useful space for marketers to reach their audiences.

Together the two companies have developed viewability tools and proprietary measurement software to help brands and ad agencies better track their advertising performance. In addition, the partnership will work to bring more transparency to the space of gaming-based advertising, which up until now has been largely unstructured.

“By partnering with Anzu, we now deliver in-game measurement and transparency for advertisers within gaming environments. This integration sets the platform for quality standards within ad-supported gaming and allows advertisers to better understand and control the quality of their media on Anzu," said Tom Sharma, chief product officer of IAS.
