Objectives & Goals

  • Accelerate user growth in key emerging cryptocurrency regions.
  • Transform brand visibility from sports partnerships into tangible app downloads.
  • Lower Cost per Acquisition (CAC) without compromising on secure, authentic expansion.

Challenges

  • Conversion from Sponsorships: Awareness from sports partnerships wasn’t directly translating into trading activity
  • Emerging Market Complexity: Each region required unique messaging due to cultural and financial differences.
  • Fraud Risk: Expanding in new markets carried risk of invalid traffic and unverified installs.

The Solution

Starti designed precision-targeted CTV campaigns to engage “crypto-curious” audiences across fintech documentaries, esports streams, and FAST channels. Country-specific creatives highlighted local incentives in Brazil, Turkey, and the Philippines, turning sports sponsorship awareness into app installs. AI-powered opp?ptimization dynamically shifted budgets toward the best-performing channels, ensuring efficiency. Meanwhile, IAS-certified brand safety and fraud detection kept invalid traffic under 0.8%, enabling OKX to scale growth with confidence.
