European Fraud Study: IVT Rates Held Under 1% For Half a Decade in European Channels with Tough Anti-Fraud Standards

Retrieved on:

Mercredi, juin 21, 2023

WASHINGTON and LONDON, June 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- According to the 2023 TAG European Fraud Benchmark study, invalid traffic (IVT) rates in Europe have been held under the industry's accepted benchmark of 1% for five consecutive years in TAG Certified Channels (TCC), where multiple participants have adopted TAG's rigorous anti-fraud standards. The study found the invalid traffic (IVT) rate in TCCs in Europe was 0.68% last year, and it remained in a tight range of 0.53% to 0.69% across all five years of the study.

Key Points:

"This year's study demonstrated the success of TAG's efforts in the CTV space, as IVT rates were dramatically lower in TAG Certified Channels where multiple participants had adopted TAG's high standards than in Non-Certified Channels.
European advertisers are increasingly interested in global certifications that provide validation of low IVT rates.
"This shift is becoming increasingly evident as companies take a proactive stance not only against fraud but around other ad-related issues."
Upon receipt, all data was aggregated within a secure database in order to create the proper reporting.
