Okanjo Launches Product Match, Making 'Buy Now' Ad Technology Available to Any Online Publisher

Milwaukee, July 16, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Okanjo, a Milwaukee-based native commerce company, has announced the launch of Product Match. This unique tool allows any online publisher to add 'Buy Now' technology to their advertising options.

On the heels of Pinterest's "Shoppable Pins" and Twitter and Google's announcement of "Buy Now buttons", Okanjo is democratizing this technology, bringing shoppable display ads to publishers and advertisers of all sizes.

"Providing customers a seamless and instant shopping experience is a game changer for online publishers and their advertisers," said Okanjo CEO Michael Drescher. "We're excited that we can provide online publishers of all sizes with 'Buy Now' technology. Up until now, this is something that's only been available to eCommerce giants and top media websites."

Product Match is plug-and-play, an easy addition for any online website, and brings two powerful features to digital publishers and their advertisers:

• Contextual Placement - Product Match reads publisher content for sentiment and keywords, then places advertiser products next to the most relevant content, ensuring the right products appear in the right places.
   
• In-Ad Transactions - Product Match's technology makes display ads shoppable. Users complete their entire purchase within the ad unit, never leaving the publisher's page.
