OpenX, which operates a programmatic platform that includes an ad exchange and supply-side platform, reported Tuesday that more than 50 percent of global ad volume on the exchange came from mobile in Q1 2016, up 180 percent from a year ago.
OpenX said that on average, CPMs on mobile apps were 50 percent higher than CPMs from mobile websites.
In Q1, OpenX launched Bidder for Apps to extend its header bidding solution to mobile apps and Real-Time Guaranteed (RTG), which gives publishers a way to secure commitments from advertisers and execute those ad buys, complete with real-time audience targeting for advertisers, via programmatic processes. RTG supports mobile apps, as well.
The company says header bidding increased 300 percent year over year in Q1.
These stats were part of a quarterly update by the independent firm, which did not release revenue numbers for the quarter. For 2015, OpenX reported annual net revenues of $140 million, an increase of 40 percent year over year.
