Uber´s advertising division and Uber India have today announced the official launch of Journey Ads, a first-of-its-kind advertising option for India, as well as its partnership with Httpool by Aleph to help connect India’s brands with innovative advertising solutions.
Journey Ads, an initiative from Uber’s advertising division, offers an engaging way for brands to connect with consumers throughout the entire ride process – from the moment they book their trip through to the end of their ride.
Journey Ads deliver brands unparalleled share-of-voice and consumer attention from millions of riders across the region.
Through leveraging Uber’s first-party data and insights, Uber can surface interesting and relevant ads to users without compromising their privacy or experience, or sharing their personal data with advertisers.
This allows brands to place relevant content in front of purchase-minded riders in brand-safe and captivating ways, while respecting consumer privacy.
With one-hundred percent share of voice during the entire trip, consumers are exposed to the ad content for more than 100 seconds, well above industry averages.
In addition to Journey Ads, brands are also able to leverage Uber’s first party data and insights to reach riders while in the vehicle via Uber’s in-car tablet pilot in Delhi and Mumbai.
Uber will partner with Httpool by Aleph, to help connect India’s brands with these effective and high impact advertising surfaces.
With an innovative set of proprietary technology, performance solutions, and extensive market knowledge, Httpool by Aleph enables advertisers to connect with their audiences in the most effective ways, consistently maximizing their ROI.
