Roku, the #1 TV streaming platform in the U.S.*, announced its adoption of Unified ID 2.0 (UID2), a leading identity solution, across its premium streaming inventory. Roku advertisers can now implement more precise targeting and a secure means to facilitate data collaboration at Roku Media’s unmatched scale, powered by automation through Roku Exchange. Developed by The Trade Desk, UID2 is an identity solution that is helping pioneer the new identity fabric of the open internet.
Roku has been at the forefront of addressability, with robust first-party data from the platform’s 83.6 million Streaming Households. Now with UID2, Roku is empowering advertisers to deliver more personalized ad experiences across Roku’s inventory and devices at scale. UID2 integration enables Roku Media to become interoperable across the programmatic ecosystem.
By enabling UID2 across its premium inventory, Roku offers:
- Audience reach: With UID2, advertisers can find their audiences on Roku at scale through interoperable identity.
- Seamless activation: Through the integration of Roku identity data and UID2, advertisers can activate and measure campaigns instantly.
- Better campaign performance and return on investment (ROI): Advertisers can earn a higher return on ad spend (ROAS) through improved audience reach. More accurate targeting and measurement capabilities ensure advertisers see better conversion rates and overall campaign success.
