De-risked adoption

Revenue-sharing applies only to uplift. Addressable demand complements – rather than cannibalises – national linear sales, protecting baseline revenue while creating incremental growth.

How Addressable Advertising works

When broadcasters want to grow CPTs and deliver more value from existing linear inventory, Arqiva enables postcode-level addressable advertising within existing ad breaks – creating additional value on top of current ad revenues.

Postcode level addressability in existing ad breaks

Different ads served to different households within the same advertising break, increasing relevance and value without changing how ad breaks are sold.

Delivered via HbbTV capabilities in real-time

Targeted ads are dynamically selected and delivered at the moment of broadcast using standard connected TV technologies.

Works alongside your existing ad stack

Integrates cleanly with current ad sales, traffic and broadcast systems, avoiding disruption to established operations.

Uninterrupted program quality and viewing experience

Content, scheduling and break structure remain the same for viewers – ads become more relevant.

Ad replacement for DTH

Dynamic ad insertion over Sky, Virgin and SOIP

DTH ad replacement is built using BCi’s Ocelot Software and Arqiva’s UK DTH solution and is now available via satellite through Sky and Virgin Media, as well as Sky over IP (SOIP) platforms. Arqiva streamlines implementation, managing your playout integration, orchestration, connectivity, and trigger processing.
