Scaling reach and demand for your monetization partners

 

For Publishers

BidSwitch is smart infrastructure for DSP’s and SSP’s_

Publishers

We don't easily fit into the LUMAscape because BidSwitch serves a unique and sometimes confusing, mostly invisible role within the ecosystem.

BidSwitch provides the underlying infrastructure that optimizes trading connection and activity between different programmatic technology platforms (most commonly DSPs and SSPs). Today, we facilitate more than 4,000 of these trading connections globally. So as a Publisher, it means that BidSwitch is most likely already working with you today via one (or likely several) of your favorite supply-side platforms (SSPs).

For our SSP partners, a single integration with BidSwitch has the potential to put a publisher’s inventory in front of more than 220 DSP partners (and their respective buyers) across all media types in 250+ countries.

 
 

Custom criteria for accessing select SSP partners

Just as an SSP might use BidSwitch for specific connections, each of our DSP partners also engages with BidSwitch for a wide range of reasons and often also exerts a custom criteria for accessing select SSP partners. These criteria can depend on numerous factors such as cost efficiency, performance or a range of technical protocol parameters.

BidSwitch is not a DSP, SSP or Exchange_

Publishers

For the vast majority of both of our SSP and DSP partners, BidSwitch remains entirely invisible. Normally, a DSP or SSP will simply map directly to each other, and appear in the respective platform User Interface (UI) under the relevant partner name, even though BidSwitch is facilitating the connection.

However, in some SSP or DSP UI’s, a DSP and / or SSP may actually appear under or be incorporated under the BidSwitch name in aggregate. Publishers who encounter this should try to work with their SSP partner to help us resolve this where possible.
