Netflix has added Yahoo‘s demand-side platform [DSP] to its roster of programmatic advertising partners.
In a blog post, president of advertising Amy Reinhard called the move a “milestone” and said it will “enable clients to buy Netflix advertising through Yahoo programmatically.” The Trade Desk, Google Display and Video 360 and Microsoft are already working with Netflix on programmatic ads.
