Playgama launches dedicated advertising solution for web gaming ecosystem

Dubai, UAE — January 29, 2026 — Playgama, a rising force in the web gaming infrastructure space, today announced the launch of Playgama Ad, a specialized advertising solution for the web gaming ecosystem, engineered to maximize revenue while maintaining a precise equilibrium between ad load, session length and player UX. 

It was successfully tested by industry players like Pocket Heaven Games and Play-Games.com, and is now moving into open beta phase, allowing to onboard more html5 game developers, publishers and portals looking to growthhack their monetization.

Recognized for its “master-key” Playgama Bridge SDK and a proprietary PaaS for web game distribution, with this launch Playgama expands its product stack and dives deeper into the AdTech space, leveraging internal expertise in high-frequency testing and yield optimization across diverse geographies. 

Playgama Ad provides web game developers and gaming portal operators with a high-yield, scalable monetization solution beyond traditional ad networks. It is designed as a complementary monetization layer that can be used as a primary solution or a fallback, without locking partners into exclusive agreements. 

Key features of Playgama Ad:
  • Unified format support: comprehensive coverage of both in-game (pre-roll, mid-roll, rewarded video) and portal-based formats (interstitials and various display banner sizes).

  • AI-driven ad frequency logic designed to balance monetization and engagement.

  • For gaming portals and game developers with more than one game: fallback cross-promotion to capture incremental value from unsold inventory.

  • A fast rollout enabled by a lightweight SDK integration, without the need for manual ad setup or ongoing optimization on the partner side.

  • Granular customization: partners can maintain brand integrity with customizable ad loaders, logos, and flexible controls over ad categories to prevent churn.

  • Dedicated analytics dashboard that delivers granular performance metrics and timely visibility into key KPIs, without reliance on manual reports.

Naghi Stefan, Co-founder of Play-Games.com: "Playgama Ad integrated smoothly with our setup, and the collaboration with their technical team allowed for custom modifications that aligned perfectly with our portal. The lack of exclusivity is a major benefit, this flexibility allows us to test what works best for our revenue without restrictions, while their transparent, easy-to-read dashboard provides the granular daily insights we need to monitor performance effectively."

Valeria Svistunova, Head of Monetization at Playgama: "We’ve spent the last year stress-testing our advertising logic across our own partner network to find the balance between monetization and player retention. Now we are opening up a solution that handles the heavy lifting of ad tech—frequency capping, pricing optimization and multi-format delivery—so developers and portals can focus on building great player experiences while ensuring every impression is fully leveraged.”

Dmitry Kachmar, Founder at Playgama: “The web gaming renaissance is being held back by a high level of fragmentation and a lack of sophisticated, gaming-first ad tech. We are launching Playgama Ad to empower the entire ecosystem: providing ad networks with higher-quality demand while ensuring developers and platforms maximize their earnings.
