Jumptap’s open, flexible and consumer focused approach is gaining visibility in the mobile advertising industry, which now includes giants Google and Apple. Jumptap CMO Paran Johar had this to say about Jumptap’s role in mobile marketing:
“We believe an open approach is in the best interests of advertisers because they only care about reaching and engaging targeted audiences, not specific devices or operating systems. We are also the only independent mobile ad network that leverages our advanced IP portfolio to deliver the most relevant ads and have a healthy, diversified business that’s growing 30 percent quarter-over-quarter and is best positioned to make this a three-horse race.”
Jumptap is a co-author on the MMA’s new white paper “Expanded Mobile Ad Unit Sizes.” As exciting new devices come to market, including the iPad and other tablets, Jumptap strives to lead the way in innovating mobile marketing opportunities.

It is important to point out that companies such as Jumptap are doing much more beyond just multiple ad formats to support ‘openness’. Advertisers buy the ability to reach out to audiences; they are really trying to reach out to a proper set of target customers when planning inventory buys across different devices, applications, operators or data channels. Jumptap currently offers all these features to help achieve maximum distribution and good campaign results to its customers.

Jumptap, a mobile advertising network headquartered in Cambridge, Mass., is working on a feature that every ad network should have. The company will host user profiles that let mobile phone customers toggle their own preferred ad settings — basically letting them filter categories they don’t want to see. There’ll even be an Opt Out button for the whole thing.
Through 25 easy to set parameters stretching across a valley of verticals, consumer intelligence allows consumers opt in to more relevant advertising through the management of their mobile advertising profiles. The feature is slated for release circa mid-year, but Jumptap is beginning to inform consumers of the ramifications.
“We’ve evolved [our] mobile ad network – offering the reach of unique
users through mobile Web sites, carrier portals and apps,” said Paran
Johar, chief marketing officer of Jumptap, New York. “Our platform is an
open platform – supporting all devices and technologies – this is in
direct contrast to iAd – which is starting to look like the new walled
garden.
