Private Marketplace

What is a Private Marketplace (PMP)?

A Private Marketplace (PMP) is an exclusive, invite-only platform for digital advertising where premium publishers sell ad inventory directly to selected advertisers through programmatic auctions. Unlike open exchanges, Private Marketplaces provide:

• Exclusive Access: Only pre-approved buyers, including brands and demand-side platforms (DSPs), can bid.
• Premium Inventory: Access to high-quality placements, such as the Forbes homepage.
• Deal Types:
  • PMP Auctions: Real-time bidding (RTB) with established floor prices.
  • Programmatic Guaranteed: Fixed-price, reserved impressions.

Private Marketplaces emphasize brand safety, transparency, and control, making them an excellent choice for advertisers looking to reach high-value audiences.
