An app-open ad appears when someone launches an app, before the main screen loads. Lyft Ads sells an animated map overlay that shows your brand as the rider opens the app.
How it's sold
Lyft Ads is the only publisher listed, and you book through its sales team. The overlay is tied to the rider's location or trip.
What it costs
Most publishers quote the price on request, and app-open ads are normally sold on a cost per thousand impressions or as a flat daily fee.
What you supply
You supply a logo and a short animation or image, plus any location or offer details the publisher requests.
Best for
It suits local awareness, such as a venue or a store near the rider.
Before you buy
Check how often the same person sees it, since an app that opens many times a day can wear out your message.
