JW Player Partners with NYIAX to Empower its Partners to Benefit from the Future of Advertising Today

Toronto, CA and New York, NY — November 30, 2020, JW Player, the world’s most powerful and flexible video platform, today announced a revolutionary partnership with NYIAX, the world’s first and most active upfronts marketplace and advanced contract management exchange by volume and users.

Each year, thousands of publishers, including highly coveted gaming publishers, rely on JW Player to reliably power video within their cross-screen experiences. JW Player’s video reach and engagement are in high demand because of its audience. While YouTube and Facebook reach large audiences, they cannot match the engagement JW Player’s dedicated audience delivers.

The JW Player NYIAX partnership allows advertisers to reserve or buy future inventory supplied by JW Player across the NYIAX marketplace. The move extends the value that JW Player’s partners receive by allowing them to showcase advertising opportunities to new demand sources and ad buying partners on the NYIAX marketplace.

“We’re thrilled to be partnering with NYIAX because it will provide the ad-buying community with a strong way to access video at scale without relying on inventory from YouTube and Facebook,” said Michael Schwalb, GM of Data & Advertising at JW Player. “It also provides the true transparency we depend on.”

Lack of transparency, brand safety and other issues related to inventory across walled gardens has been a top concern of all digital advertising stakeholders. One reason is because it makes it very difficult for transacting parties to view common campaign metrics. What happens on the NYIAX platform is crystal clear.

“What JW Player is doing for its partners is significant,” said Carolina Abenante, co-founder of NYIAX. “By turning on the power of futures advertising via NYIAX, JW Player and its partners will gain significant market advantage, something many companies are struggling to do right now.” Contact info@nyiax.com to learn more.
