Comscore and Frameplay Launch Brand Lift Survey Series to Better Understand Intrinsic In-Game Advertising Performance

RESTON, Va., Jan. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Comscore (NASDAQ: SCOR), a trusted partner for planning, transacting, and evaluating media across platforms, today announced it has completed the first of a series of brand lift surveys in partnership with Frameplay, a leading global intrinsic in-game advertising company. Focusing on the intrinsic in-game advertising category, the new brand lift survey series is designed to study and highlight the value of this highly lucrative and emerging advertising space and the enhanced creative standards brought forth by Frameplay's capabilities.  In the kickoff survey, Comscore and Frameplay worked with a leading snack brand that wanted to connect to the significant gaming audience in a meaningful, authentic way using Frameplay's intrinsic in-game advertising capabilities. Frameplay enabled Comscore's brand lift survey to better evaluate the impact of intrinsic in-game advertising on key branding measures.  

As a result of the joint effort, this leading snack brand recognized a brand attribution lift across the board. The brand registered double-digital point lifts including a +31.8 point lift in Mobile Ad Recall, +32 point lift in Fit as a Game Sponsor, +46.4 point lift in Like the Brand's Sponsorship of the Games and +26.2 point lift in Purchase Intent.

The survey results showcase Comscore's industry-leading brand survey methodology, which gives brands validated and trusted third-party measurement that highlights the value of the emerging intrinsic in-game advertising opportunity to marketers.
