North American grocery technology company Instacart and Roku, a US TV streaming platform, have announced an expansion of their partnership to offer advertisers new shoppable formats and advanced targeting capabilities.
The collaboration aims to make TV moments more engaging and interactive for consumers while providing brands with a direct path to purchase.
By combining Roku’s reach with Instacart’s grocery expertise, advertisers can now create targeted, shoppable ads that drive sales and measure their effectiveness.
The expanded partnership offers advertisers the ability to create ads that allow viewers to directly purchase products on Instacart simply by scanning a QR code or sending a text message. This seamless transition from viewing to buying provides a convenient and engaging shopping experience.
Brands can also place targeted, high-impact ads on the Roku home screen, ensuring maximum visibility and engagement with viewers.
Advertisers can leverage Instacart’s first-party data to create more relevant and targeted ads based on consumers’ purchase behaviour. This allows for precise targeting of specific audiences and improves campaign effectiveness.
