BIGO LIVE worked with the agency, AdTiger, to test and discover the best performing creatives in Snap Ads. They found the engaging vertical and full-screen creatives attracted users’ attention and helped acquire more high-value users from the United States and Saudi Arabia. They also saw a 25% higher 24 hour retention rate than other platforms in the United States and a 33% higher 24 hour retention rate than other platforms in Saudi Arabia. They were also able to achieve a higher D7 ROI by targeting the most engaged users with app install goal-based bidding.  ¹
