✔ Publishers need one platform that does it all and they want to avoid integrating 20 SDKs to achieve optimal global monetization for their apps. The mobile SSP does just that!

✔ Allows you to open up more verticals to procure demand in.

✔ A supply-side platform on the publisher side interfaces to an ad exchange, which in turn interfaces to a demand-side platform (DSP) on the advertiser side.

✔ This system allows advertisers to put online advertising before a selected target audience.
