Mumbai : Geo-targeted TV ad network Amagi has announced that its ad spots will be certified by AdEx India, a division of TAM Media Research.
The certification adds a new dimension to Amagi’s offering of geo-targeted advertisements on television. An endorsement of Amagi’s ad-spot reporting mechanisms, the certification will include proof of execution and time of delivery, which will be included in the company’s post-campaign report, the company said.
The certification is currently specific to Zee TV ad-inventory purchased through Amagi.

This partnership will add not only add credibility, but also ensure transparency to the ad play-out process, a realignment which media planners have been waiting eagerly for. A first-of-its-kind certification for India’s geo-targeted TV advertising industry, this will help accelerate the adoption of geo-targeting by advertisers. This substantiates our commitment to a value-driven and effective advertising service. As a pioneer in this industry, we see it as our responsibility to grow the world of targeted advertising in India, and this is a big step in that direction.”
Amagi’s geo-targeting aims at helping media planners, marketers and advertisers across the country plan their budgets more effectively. It also gives agencies the opportunity to offer specific, result-oriented campaigns to their clients across sectors. Furthermore, the TAM-AdEx certification will ensure that media planners can now be absolutely certain about their reporting for geo-targeted ad campaigns.
Amagi’s platform offers advertisers the flexibility and focus of digital on television.
