Adverty invents and launches new in-game brand advertising format with seamless In-Menu™ ads
Adverty AB (publ) has invented and launched a new in-game brand advertising format called In-Menu format, completes a product suite of seamless in-game ad solutions that combine both brand awareness and performance-based advertising.
Adverty, the leading in-game platform for advertisers, agencies and game developers, today invites a new category of advertisers into the world of gaming with the invention and launch of a revolutionary new in-game brand advertising format that enables contextually relevant IAB display banner ads in between gameplay.
Deeply integrated at game design level, In-Menu enhances a highly innovative product suite that also includes Adverty’s current In-Play
“As the first and leading provider of seamless, programmatic in-game ad solutions, Adverty is once again showing the way to bring brands into the new world of gaming. This is a massive entertainment platform with nearly 3 billion gamers, and within it we are building the media channel of the future”, explains Niklas Bakos, CEO and founder of Adverty.
The interactive nature of Adverty’s In-Menu
“To date, programmatic advertising on a global scale is predominantly populated by performance-based ad campaigns built for the web, and media buyers in this space expect users to click on ads to generate conversions and fulfil KPIs. Our In-Menu
Adverty is working closely with IAB, IAB Europe, IAB UK, IAB Sweden and IAB Tech Labs to establish new industry standards for in-game advertising. The company believes strongly that programmatic media buying will grow to include more opportunities for the in-app space – in which gaming is by far the largest category – alongside the current web focus. It is increasingly clear that the future of programmatic advertising is likely to include a mix of both awareness and performance-based brand demand.
“Programmatic advertising is essential if you are to run any digital ad business at scale. As we now start seeing initial commitments from brands and agencies to run in-game brand awareness campaigns using our traditional In-Play offering will allow even more brands to participate and accelerate the establishment of gaming as a substantial new media channel”, says Bakos.
Adverty’s full range of seamless in-game ad technology is now available to game developers using the company’s latest Unity-based SDK. The In-Menu and vice versa, and the new product launch marks an important milestone in enabling yet an additional revenue stream while boosting current sales.
The initial feedback from both leading game publishers and indie game studios around the world has been overwhelmingly positive and Adverty expects its game portfolio to include In-Menu ad unit in the upcoming direct-to Unity Asset Store SDK, through a partnership announced with Unity Technologies earlier this year.

The company said the expansion is aimed at helping operators diversify and localise their game lobbies for emerging markets through a single integration.

Comparasino has launched a three-month Broadcaster Video on Demand (BVOD) advertising campaign running exclusively on ITVX, starting Tuesday 14 April, 2026. The Leeds-based online casino comparison platform said the campaign will run across ITVX premium prime-time programming and hit shows.

The company said the creative focuses on its proprietary Recommendation Engine, positioning it as an alternative to static casino list formats. Comparasino said the tool asks users for preferences such as bonuses, payment methods and minimum deposits, then returns matches from UK Gambling Commission (UKGC)-licensed brands.
Comparasino also pointed to its free-to-join Member Zone, which allows users to save preferences and a list of matches. The company said the portal’s automation engine surfaces new matches in real time as additional casino partners are added, and that members can receive brand-launch news and profile-based bonus offers.
Martyn Hannah, Co-founder and CEO of Comparasino, said: “Advertising on ITVX is a transformative step for us. For too long, the online casino search process has been a ‘one size fits all’ experience. Our mission is to humanise that journey by putting the player’s specific needs first.
“By launching this three-month campaign on a platform as prestigious as ITVX, we’re not just building brand awareness, we are showing the UK public that there is a smarter, safer and more tailored way to play.”
Comparasino said all brands featured on its platform are licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, positioning compliance and player protection as central to its UK-facing proposition.

New category-level analysis breaks down non-branded iGaming demand by vertical across France, Brazil, India, Italy and Switzerland.
Blask says lottery-related queries account for around 78% of total gambling search demand in France, outweighing online casino (~10%) and live dealer, betting and poker (each ~4%). The company positions the data as evidence that sports betting is not the primary driver of gambling demand in every market.
Blask said the figures come from non-branded search data and are part of a new category-level analysis feature designed to break down demand across verticals and subcategories within each market. The tool is intended to help operators compare player intent across jurisdictions, including “lottery in France, football betting in Brazil, or culturally driven formats in India.”
Outside France, Blask’s data shows Brazil is more betting-led, with online betting at ~52% of demand, which the company attributes largely to football. Lottery represents ~25%, fantasy sports ~11%, while casino (~6%) and live dealer (~2%) remain smaller segments.
India is described as more evenly distributed, with lottery at ~35% and live dealer at ~29%, and online casino, betting and fantasy each at roughly 10%. In Europe, Italy’s demand is reported as seasonally influenced by football, with fantasy sports leading at ~37%, while Switzerland is presented as casino-first, with online casino at ~38%.
Across the markets analysed, Blask said two themes recur: older categories often remain the biggest, and regulation heavily shapes demand. Where certain verticals are restricted, the company said interest tends to shift into adjacent or offshore segments rather than disappearing.
