Media Troopers reported stronger seasonal campaign performance during the NBA postseason and the FIFA World Cup, citing increases in traffic, player registrations, first-time depositors, and affiliate revenue.

The company said that so far in 2026 it has gained more than 100 thousand new depositing customers, a 60% increase compared to the previous year. Media Troopers also pointed to a January surge in bets it attributed mainly to Super Bowl-driven activity.

During the NBA Finals window (June 3 to June 13), Media Troopers said betting interest was concentrated across game winners, spreads, totals, player props, futures, and live betting. The company reported a 120% spike in betting activity compared with the previous year.

For the World Cup period (June 11 to July 19), Media Troopers said its campaigns reached a wider audience and that betting activity rose 80% compared with last year, when it said no tournament was taking place. The release also referenced tournament changes including 48 teams across 104 matches.

“Major sports moments create a powerful combination of fan attention, betting intent, and acquisition opportunity,” Media Troopers CEO Shmulik Segal said. “The NBA postseason and FIFA World Cup gave us two highly active campaign windows, and our early performance indicates that our localized, data-led approach helped operator partners capture meaningful demand.”

Media Troopers said it recorded strong seasonal growth in campaign performance and affiliate earnings, citing increased traffic, player registrations, first-time depositors, and affiliate revenue during campaigns aligned with the NBA postseason and FIFA World Cup.

The company pointed to two campaign windows—the NBA Finals (June 3 to June 13) and the World Cup (June 11 to July 19)—as key drivers of the results. Media Troopers said its operator campaigns are designed to help partners market to new wagering audiences while aligning with current wagering trends.

Media Troopers said that so far in 2026 it has gained more than 100 thousand new depositing customers, representing a 60% increase compared to the previous year. The company also cited a January surge in bets that it attributed mainly to the Super Bowl.

During its NBA-focused campaigns, Media Troopers said betting interest spanned game winners, spreads, totals, player props, futures, and live betting, with betting activity up 120% compared to the previous year. For the World Cup, Media Troopers said betting activity increased 80% compared to last year, when no tournament was taking place, and attributed engagement to loyalty to national teams, a tournament structure featuring 48 teams across 104 matches, and match-day wagering.

“Major sports moments create a powerful combination of fan attention, betting intent, and acquisition opportunity,” Media Troopers CEO Shmulik Segal. “The NBA postseason and FIFA World Cup gave us two highly active campaign windows, and our early performance indicates that our localized, data-led approach helped operator partners capture meaningful demand.”

PropellerAds Launches Paid Social Traffic: A New Paid Social Traffic Format Goes Live

Published

 PropellerAds, a leading advertising technology platform, has officially launched a new ad format, Paid Social Traffic, offering advertisers a new way to reach social users without the need for a social advertising account. The product leverages exclusive supply partners to deliver highly active social audiences into the PropellerAds Self-Serve Platform (SSP), without requiring additional accounts, third-party integrations, or new creatives. Advertisers only need an existing landing page to start running campaigns.

Paid Social Traffic is a new standalone ad format within the PropellerAds platform that enables direct access to users active within social feeds. The traffic is sourced through the platform’s partner ecosystem and is available exclusively within the PropellerAds environment. It also supports a “Custom Collaboration” model for long-term optimization, designed for advertisers with sustained budgets and scaling requirements.

High-Intent Social Audiences and Performance

According to PropellerAds, this traffic type reaches highly engaged social users who are typically in an active browsing and content interaction state, making them more likely to click and convert.

Early tests conducted by partners under matched conditions (same GEO and device) show that Paid Social Traffic delivers conversion rate uplifts of approximately 30–40x compared to traditional display formats, with some tests reaching around 32x higher performance. Results may vary depending on industry, product, and market conditions.

The traffic is currently available across a range of high-performing GEOs, including the Philippines, Brazil, Bangladesh, Thailand, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Congo, Tanzania, Nigeria, Malaysia, and Indonesia, with further expansion planned.

Relationship With Existing Social Traffic inside Onclink Ad Format

Paid Social Traffic and Organic Social Traffic both form part of the PropellerAds Social Traffic ecosystem, but they differ clearly in source and operate in parallel.

Organic Social Traffic refers to traffic coming from blogger and publisher-owned channels within the Onclick ad format, while Paid Social Traffic is a new standalone paid source delivered through the exclusive setups run by PropellerAds partners. The two are not mutually exclusive and can be used together within campaign strategies to optimize overall traffic structure and acquisition efficiency.

Industry Applications and Campaign Setup

The format currently performs strongly in verticals such as gaming, finance, and mobile software, while also being applicable to other verticals depending on platform policy and regional availability.

For gaming and finance advertisers, the format offers a simplified campaign setup process while still adhering to PropellerAds’ standard ad quality and compliance requirements. No social platform advertising account is required, and all campaigns can be launched directly within the platform by selecting Paid Social Traffic during campaign creation.
