INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS

  • PLACEMENTS ON APPS

    - Banner ads for Nokia appear on the News section of the application only. The ad displays on the screen for 5 seconds when a news story is loading, then retracts to the bottom of the news story page.
    - Banner ads for iPhone & iPad appear on the News section of the application only. The ad displays on the screen for 5 seconds only, then retracts to the bottom of the news story page.

  • COLOR INFORMATION AND REQUIREMENTS

    - Ad background should not be black as it will interfere with the interface. If black is important to the client’s brand, then a design element—e.g. an outline—
     should be applied to differentiate the ad from the application.
    - White (R 255, G 255, B 255) should also be avoided as it will appear too bright. Please use R 204, G 204, B 204 as the white equivalent.

  • Additional Rich Media Specs:

    - Expanded ad must include a close button
    - Expanding ads must be approved by Bloomberg prior to launch
