How Traffy Cut FTD Cost in Half and Scaled Betting in Tanzania for Africa Bet Partners via Moloco Ads
This case highlights the impact of systematic optimization in Moloco Ads for the Betting vertical. Despite market turbulence in East Africa, Traffy not only maintained Africa Bet’s KPIs but also significantly improved ROI through deep, data-driven optimization.
Project Overview
Africa Bet Partners Offer: Betting
Traffic Partner: Traffy
Source: Moloco Ads (Google Play Inventory)
Geo: Tanzania (TZ)
Period: 2 months
Total Spend: ~$42,000
Final CR (Reg-to-FTD): 60%
Final CR (FTD 1-to-FTD 2): 45%
Challenge and Initial Metrics
At the launch of the campaign, the situation was challenging. The complex economic and political environment in Tanzania had a direct impact on consumer purchasing power and the stability of payment systems.
Initial Cost per FTD: $15.00
Goal: Reduce the cost of the target action to below $8 and identify scaling potential.
Optimization Strategy: What Was Done
The success of this case is the result of Traffy’s consistent work across four key areas:
1. Traffic Quality Management (Exchanges & Publishers)
Traffy conducted a comprehensive audit of publishers (placements) through which Moloco acquired inventory.
- Blacklists were created based on low deposit conversion.
- Collaboration was optimized with specific ad exchanges that demonstrated stronger Retention.
2. Creative Strategy
Traffy moved away from standard approaches and implemented a system of regular testing of new creative packs. Creative optimization significantly increased CTR and IPM, providing the Moloco algorithm with more data for learning.
3. Traffic Cleanup to Avoid Paying for Bots
- Placements with suspicious install times (CTIT) were filtered out to protect against click flooding.
- Device “farms” were identified and banned through Device ID analysis.
- Using BI tools, installs were cross-checked with real user activity. Placements with no engagement were added to the Blacklist.
4. Funnel Optimization
Through targeting optimization at the campaign level, Traffy attracted more relevant users. This led to an increase in the CR from registration to FTD up to 60%, which is an abnormally high indicator for this region.
Key Insight
Deep publisher analytics in Moloco Ads combined with category segmentation allows reducing deposit cost by more than 2x while maintaining high player quality (Retention and repeat deposits).
Result
Traffy not only met Africa Bet’s KPIs but also built a stable model for further scaling. Even in “difficult” geos, a systematic optimization approach makes it possible to achieve outstanding results. At the moment, the campaign continues to run, and user Retention (FTD 2) shows organic growth.
