Company Description

Launched in 2017, CitrusAd was purposely built with a retailer-first focus creating incremental revenue opportunities through a best-in-class technology platform and a services division to create and develop leading Publisher Monetization programs. This winning combination of tech and highly experienced services allow us to unleash the potential of online shelf space, where CitrusAd effectively turns retailer websites into highly targeted and effective marketing platforms - changing the way in which retailers, advertisers and customers manage and experience e-commerce.
