TripleLift, the ad tech platform elevating digital advertising across every screen, today announced that it has been selected by Raptive, the full-service creator media company that powers creator independence, as the preferred Supply-Side Platform (SSP) partner for its Raptive Represents program. The two brands will collaborate to secure additional investment in diverse publishers from targeted agencies and brands, launch joint efforts supporting diverse advertising, and consolidate in-market programmatic demand to TripleLift’s ecosystem targeting Raptive supply.
TripleLift is the largest minority-owned SSP in ad tech and now has the ability to offer a single programmatic pathway that allows budgets targeting specific consumer markets to flow directly to Raptive’s diverse-owned inventory, which Jounce has identified as the largest source for advertisers who want to reach diverse-owned media. This makes the partnership and new offering a win for advertisers who want to meet supplier diversity goals with ease.
As the premiere creator media company, Raptive exclusively represents more than 500 minority-owned websites, which collectively reach an audience of 58 million people across 27 verticals.
“Given Raptive’s position representing so much of the diverse-owned digital ad inventory on the open web, this partnership makes sense for TripleLift and our goals,” said Thomas Brandon, economic inclusion lead at TripleLift. “We have long been committed to helping diverse-owned businesses. Now, with Raptive’s strong relationships with this incredible community of diverse and independent creators, we can bring them even more success as a team. Raptive understands our vision for fostering inclusivity, especially among publishers and creators, and we are so proud to be named a preferred partner.”
“Raptive and TripleLift share a deep commitment to supporting underrepresented creators on the open web. Our Raptive Represents program provides a tailored, end-to-end advertising solution designed to empower creators from diverse backgrounds while driving meaningful impact for our clients,” said Marla Newman, Raptive’s EVP of Sales. “This partnership with TripleLift will amplify diverse voices and ensure more advertiser media spend goes to minority business owners across the entire supply chain, from the publishers to the SSP. This collaboration will drive value for all involved—from creators to brands—by building authentic, inclusive representation opportunities.”
