Emerging Digital-Place-based and Location Intelligence company, Motio has announced its continued expansion of programmatic across its Australian networks, adding its Retail-On-The-Go network, Motio Go, to its existing Health and Play environments.

Michael Johnstone, COO at Motio told us “This brand-new inventory stream is powered by Vistar, who have worked incredibly hard to make this a successful launch. The quality of Vistar’s technology, energy and industry expertise has enabled Motio to accelerate its position in this market. Coupled with Motio’s commitment to 1st party data, it gives brands the confidence to deliver for is customers who purchase more than just fuel”.

Motio Go is described as a highly scaled, in-store retail network in over 500 Ampol locations across Australia with 10 million customer contacts per month, reaching consumers committed to purchase.

Motio has announced Vistar as its launch partner utilising its leading end-to-end programmatic ecosystem for Digital-Out-Of-Home. Vistar’s demand & supply-side platforms empower buyers and sellers to easily transact on high value inventory while applying intelligent data insights that improve and enhance media performance.

Ben Baker, Managing Director, APAC at Vistar Media said “Our aim is to grow the entire out-of-home ecosystem, by enabling advertisers to seamlessly tap into the wide variety of unique, impactful media experiences with the same data-driven strategies that drive programmatic success in other channels. Inventory like the Motio Go network that can influence consumers right at the point-of-purchase is highly valuable to buyers and we’re pleased to partner with Motio to further expand our scale.”

Motio won the media sales rights to the Ampol network in June last year which is operated by Engagis.

Following the programmatic deployment of Motio Health and Motio Play earlier in the year, the company continues to grow in the Digital-Place-Based sector as it approaches its first year of operation in media sales.
