Beijing — Dec 25, 2019— AdView announced today that it has been officially certificated as OM SDK compliant by IAB Tech Lab Measurement Compliance program, strengthening AdView’s position as a trusted partner and an industry leader.

Third-party measurement verification of mobile in-app impressions has remained a challenge for the industry, which has limited advertiser’s ability to verify the quality of the in-app inventory. Measurement solutions provided by measurement providers, such as MOAT and IAS, require app publishers and supply-side platforms to integrate separate SDKs, requiring greater resource investment to maintain, and potentially leading to poor consumer experiences.

IAB Tech Lab’s Open Measurement project was initiated to develop a scalable solution that minimizes code used to provide data to measurement providers. The Open Measurement Software Development Kit (OM SDK) is designed to simplify mobile measurement for everyone, making integration easier for app developers and access to preferred providers more flexible for advertisers and agencies.

To ensure that the Measurement Providers are collecting data from a reliable implementation of OM SDK by the Integration Partner, IAB Tech Lab has developed a compliance program for validating the integration for companies that support the IAB measurement guidelines.

The certification by IAB Tech Lab will significantly benefit AdView partners, as it will drive efficiency in our complex ecosystem, and lead to reduced friction in the supply chain, and easier onboarding of new partners. It will also lead to more demand opportunities for AdView’s premium publishers as the demand side’s ability to verify the inventory quality is increased.

“AdView is a company that deeply respects rules and aims at operating our business in a fully responsible and trustworthy manner,” said Ethan Lin, General Manager, Global Business of AdView. “We are honored and delighted to join an elite group of mobile advertising industry leaders who have received certification from IAB Tech Lab and share common goals. We look forward to working together to commit to increasing accountability and transparency in our industry.”
