App User Acquisition
Pangle
Pangle is TikTok for Business's mobile advertising network for app developers, publishers, and advertisers outside the core TikTok feed. It supports user acquisition and app monetization through formats such as rewarded video, interstitial, native, banner, and playable advertising, with automated optimization, creative resources, reporting, and integrations with mediation and measurement partners across supported markets. It is most useful for apps seeking additional scale in Asia-Pacific and other regions where Pangle supply is strong, while availability and performance vary substantially by country.
What it does
Pangle is ByteDance's global advertising and monetization network for mobile apps, the same demand engine behind much of TikTok for Business' programmatic supply. App developers integrate the Pangle SDK to fill rewarded video, interstitial, native, and banner placements with demand sourced from global advertisers, while supporting in-app bidding through major mediation platforms. For advertisers, Pangle extends TikTok-style performance campaigns into a wide network of third-party apps and games. Its creative formats lean on playables and immersive video, and reporting covers fill rate, eCPM, and revenue so publishers can tune waterfall and bidding setups to maximize yield without sacrificing user experience.
