Pixalate, the global market-leading ad fraud protection, privacy, and compliance analytics platform, released the Q2 2024 Global Ad Fraud and Invalid Traffic (IVT) Benchmark Reports, analysing the invalid traffic (IVT, including ad fraud) rates for open programmatic advertising in Q2 2024.

Pixalate released desktop and mobile web, Connected TV (CTV), mobile app, and region-specific versions of the report, including North America, EMEA, APAC, LATAM.

Pixalate's data science team analysed over 88 billion global open programmatic advertising impressions in Q2 2024 to compile this research. The reports benchmark IVT and ad fraud by global region (Global, North America, EMEA, APAC, LATAM), country, browser (Google Chrome, Firefox, Apple Safari, Microsoft Edge, Opera), device type, app category, ads.txt, and additional breakdowns. Pixalate’s findings concerning the mobile web traffic analysis cover smartphones as well as tablet devices.
