You have great games. Finding new paths to growth can be the hard part.

Quality players at scale

Finding players who actually deliver your ROAS targets requires AI that understands your game, trained on your own first-party data, not just your bid. And when spend is concentrated in a single partner, you lose flexibility over your own growth.

Lapsed players,
lost revenue

Re-engaging dormant players is one of thebest-ROI moves in mobile gaming. Lapsed players spend time across millions of independent apps and not every channel can reach them.

Siloed UA & monetization

When UA and monetization run as separate systems, neither side has the full picture. That's even harder to fix when your growth platform has other priorities.

Moloco doesn't just claim incrementality.
We measure it.

Transparency

Your independent mobile measurement platforms. Your numbers. Full visibility.

Attribution runs through the MMP you already use — AppsFlyer, Adjust, Singular, Branch, Kochava.

See where your ads ran — down to the TV app.

Publisher-level reporting is available from day one, so you can validate inventory quality and brand safety yourself.

Measure CTV’s true impact on growth.

We support incrementality testing because when mobile runs alongside CTV, last-click often misses the full picture.

Premium reach

Not all CTV inventory is equal.

Inventory bundling — mixing in mobile, tablet, and out-of-home screens - can inflate CTV reach numbers without delivering the living room audience.

Moloco filters out known public IP addresses.

No bars.
No airports.
No waiting rooms. Just the living room.

Build for brand safety

Designed to block fraud in real time — suspicious IPs filtered before spend.

Unique audience understanding

Others know what people watch. We predict what they’ll do.

We bid on what a user is worth to your business — not what the inventory costs.

Years of performance data shows how users convert, engage, and drive revenue. So when we bid on a CTV impression, we don't just see a household. We see predicted value. Built on real behavior. Designed to predict what happens next.

From big screen to app install

The same AI infrastructure that processes billions of mobile ad opportunities every day powers Moloco Performance CTV.

Before a bid is placed, Moloco’s AI has already estimated the probability that this household user will convert on mobile, the expected value of that user, and the right price to win — based on how similar users behave across devices and apps.

CTV campaigns designed from the start to drive mobile app outcomes, not just TV-screen reach

Set your goals

Set your campaign goal — CPI or CPA— and connect your existing MMP. Moloco optimizes toward your target in real time.

Connect

When platforms charge a fixed CPM plus fees, impressions cost the same. They get paid either way, so there’s no direct incentive to find the impressions most likely to drive installs.

Optimize

Moloco bids on CTV inventory in real time, targeting households most likely to convert — not just watch. Every impression is priced dynamically based on predicted user value, market competition, and your campaign goals - whether CPI or CPA.

Measure

Track every outcome through your MMP. Run incrementality tests. See exactly what CTV is driving — installs, FTDs, purchases, and deeper in-app events — with full publisher-level visibility.

Both sides compound over time.
