Matomy Media Group Acquires Performance-Based Social Advertising Agency from Adquant

Matomy acquires the social advertising agency of Facebook PMD Adquant.

Matomy now offers performance-based solutions for Facebook advertisers 

TEL AVIV and NEW YORK (October 22, 2013) — Global performance marketing company Matomy Media Group today announced the acquisition of Adquant’s social advertising agency, which was formerly known as Adotomi. Adquant will now focus solely on being a technology provider for its Facebook advertising platform.

Adquant’s social advertising agency team, along with its clients, will be integrated within Matomy Media Group’s social advertising unit, which will use Adquant’s technology.

“Adquant is a leader in social advertising and has an impressive record of delivering results for its customers,” said Ofer Druker, CEO of Matomy Media Group. “Its social advertising team is well aligned with Matomy’s DNA, which is focused on delivering performance-based results for advertisers. This acquisition gives us access to one of the best Facebook advertising platforms on the market, as well as an advantage in one of the most influential trends in online advertising.”

Matomy and Adquant are joining forces to bring performance-based desktop and mobile solutions to Facebook advertisers. As Facebook’s advertising model continues to evolve there is a growing need among advertisers to effectively engage, acquire and retain new and existing customers via Facebook.

The acquisition also enhances Matomy’s growing mobile marketing practice by offering advertisers the ability to use Facebook’s superior targeting capabilities and drive quality users to mobile apps. Advertisers that work with Matomy can receive deeper insights and more robust performance from their mobile social advertising campaigns.

Adquant drives 15 billion monthly ad views on Facebook and has more than 50 apps that have one million-plus users each. It is part of an elite group of social advertising companies that have been qualified as Facebook Preferred Marketing Developers (PMDs). Companies that have received this designation are held to a higher level of performance and industry standards.

“This acquisition represents a win-win for both Matomy and Adquant,” said Adquant CEO Joe McCormack. “The social advertising agency that Matomy has acquired will now have more resources at its disposal and will be able to tap into Matomy’s large and diverse client base. Adquant will now be able to move forward focused 100% on developing our technology, increasing our abilities to innovate and allowing us to maintain our position as one of the premium SaaS Facebook advertising platforms.”

“Facebook is no longer just an engagement platform,” said David Serfaty, the former chief operating officer of Adotomi who is joining Matomy as its director of social advertising. “It’s about driving real, measurable business results. Matomy’s focus on performance-driven advertising allows us to provide clients with a results-based social advertising service.”
