Conversion

Click to Sign Up

Make it effortless for viewers to join your loyalty program or promotional campaign — right from the TV screen. With “Click to Sign Up”, viewers use their remotes to enroll in rewards programs, access special offers, or join waitlists without leaving their TV.

How It Works
During the CTV ad, a simple on-screen prompt invites viewers to sign up. With one click, their email, that is linked to the streaming service, is used to register them or a sign-up link is sent directly to their email. It's a seamless, remote-powered experience that drives real conversions.

Tagging

‍

Process (Direct Buys)

  • BrightLine creates the VAST tag (which contains the video and interactive creative) and delivers to the media partner(s) (1 VAST tag per creative).
  • If the agency team has additional trackers, they should be provided to the media partner(s) to add in line with the VAST. As the 1st party ad server, the media partner will traffic the tags, add the 3p trackers, and will control the rotation/flighting if there are multiple creatives.

‍

Process (Programmatic Buys)

  • Agency obtains Deal IDs from SSP(s). If activating via BrightLine’s Accelerator MP (Xandr), BrightLine will provide the Deal IDs to the agency.
  • BrightLine creates the VAST tags (which contain the video and interactive creative) and delivers to the agency team (1 VAST tag per creative).
  • Agency will traffic the VAST tags (with DSP’s support) on the provided Deal IDs only (which include BrightLine-enabled inventory ensuring the interactive ad will deliver properly).
    • Agency will apply any targeting (recommend loosest targeting possible for scale), and will control the rotation/flighting if there are multiple creatives.
    • If the agency team has additional trackers, the agency team should add them in line with the VAST within the DSP interface.

‍

3P TAGS

  • 3p trackers can be added in line with BrightLine’s VAST. However, click trackers should be omitted, as the unit doesn’t click to web, and this could break the unit.

BrightLine Best Practices

‍

Universal

  • Spot: Leverage a :30 spot where possible, otherwise :15.
  • Calls to Action: Highlight states should be very prominent and consistent for ease of navigation with the remote (up-down, left-right, select).
  • Ordinality: Lead with the brand’s highest priority content as it will see the most views.
  • Text: Should be short, concise, and large enough to be easily read from 10 feet away (see recommended character maximum by ad format).

‍

Overlay Design

  • Ensure the overlay is large in size
  • Leverage a CTA that is short in length, large in size, and sets clear expectations (Recommend 5-10 words including “Scroll to/for...” or “Press OK to/for”)
  • Additional messaging, if any, should be kept to a minimum
  • Include visual cues to engage (remote, arrows, etc.)

‍

QR Codes

  • Size: 200px min., 300+px recommended for ease of scanning from 10 feet away during short time frame
  • Spot: Leverage a :30 spot if available to allow time for viewers to grab their phone, open their camera, zoom if needed and click.
  • Consistency: include on all overlay images (not hidden beyond engagement) to maximize QR code views.
  • Additional Messaging: if any, should be kept to a minimum, especially if the QR code is the priority.
  • Call to Action: For maximum QR scans, tie the QR CTA into the creative and/or feature a compelling hook.

Reporting

‍

Engagement Metrics

  • BrightLine reports on engagement metrics (these metrics cannot be 3p-tracked) and will provide regular reporting.

‍

Delivery Metrics

  • Impressions and associated delivery metrics will be reported by the media partner (or by the DSP in the case of a programmatic buy).
