The Challenge
Apple’s announcement of major changes to the IDFA on iOS 14 at WWDC 2020 was a huge shot across the bow in the mobile advertising world. As the deadline approached, the industry sought to understand the impact of the IDFA removal. Triwin Games partnered with Aarki in July 2020 for a user acquisition campaign targeting iOS users with Limited Ad Tracking (LAT) enabled on their device.
The objective of the campaign was to understand the return on investment (ROI) potential of the LAT traffic while acquiring new users for Triwin’s Billion Cash Casino app.
The Solution
Aarki has been running LAT targeted campaigns for our advertisers for several months, even prior to the iOS 14 announcement. As a result, we have a seamless LAT campaign process and several LAT specific optimization models available to be trained for our advertisers’ app campaigns.
For Billion Cash Casino we utilized our LAT ROI optimization models to meet, and exceed, Triwin’s KPIs.
To track the performance of the campaign, we used the install and event postbacks from Triwin’s MMP.
The Results
The campaign proved to be successful right from the start. Though the non-IDFA environment limits some of the targeting and optimizations possible, we were able to train our models using the available signals for this campaign successfully and exceeded Triwin’s ROI goal by 24.80%.
Furthermore, LAT traffic outperformed the IDFA traffic with over 30% higher ROI.
Bottom Line
At Aarki, our data scientists develop advanced machine learning models to reach and acquire prospective users and deliver strong ROI. This reality hasn’t changed with the iOS14 IDFA deprecation. Due to our adaptability and creative approach, we continue to hold our values driving innovation and delivering superior performance to our customers.
