Private Marketplace (PMP)
A Private Marketplace (PMP) is an invitation-only programmatic environment where publishers sell premium ad inventory to selected advertisers under negotiated terms. Unlike open auctions, PMPs provide greater transparency, brand safety, and pricing stability.
In a PMP deal, the publisher defines rules for pricing, ad formats, and buyer access, while advertisers benefit from preferred placement and higher-quality traffic. For example, a major news publisher may reserve its homepage inventory for verified advertisers through PMP deals.
PMPs combine the automation of real-time bidding with the control of direct sales, making them ideal for brands seeking to protect their reputation while maintaining programmatic efficiency.
