Discord will soon get advertisements on the mobile app. Don’t worry, they will not be as annoying as they are on other social media platforms.
According to a report by The Wage, a gaming-centered chat platform will launch a pilot for video quests on mobile this summer. Video quests are sponsored advertisements that discord users can see to earn prizes for their accounts, such as in-game items and avatar decorations-things that usually spend money, whether they have a discard nitro subscription or not.
Advertisements will not appear in random moments such as they do on other social media platforms such as Instagram, Ticketkok and YouTube. They will pop up as a search bar at the bottom of the screen and, the discord user should choose to tap it to the dedicated quest tab, play a full-screen video. If they do not want to see the advertisement, they can dismiss them. This is a similar method used in some mobile games Candy Crush Jelly SagaWhere players can opt for advertising to regain the tricks when a level beating is close to a level beating.
Peter Cellis, leader of the disk product, said the move to expand video quests into mobile is part of the strategy of appealing for gaming brand partners. Discord introduced video Quests on PC last year, causing some controversy among users who are proud to be one of some advertising platforms in Tech.
“Extending our advertisement platform into mobile is a clear, natural development in our strategy,” Sellis said. “Our mission is to create the most authentic, player-focused advertising platform in Galaxy. This expansion will provide brand partners’ highly busy, cross-platform mobile audiences of the discord-and create new opportunities for businesses to join our community meaningful, and protesters.”
An announcement of expansion of video quests of Discords comes after more than two weeks for mobiles when the company talked about starting an initial public offering (IPO) with investment banks. Discord is a value of $ 15 billion as 2021. This news also comes after updating the platform with some impressive new features, including some users’ ability to ignore their knowledge without their knowledge.
Discord will launch video quests on mobile on June 2025.
