There’s something magical about the Holy Month of Ramadan. A month of reflection, generosity and togetherness. But for brands, it’s also the most competitive time of the year, a digital battleground where attention is the ultimate currency.

Imagine this: It’s iftar time. Families are gathered, phones in hand, scrolling through content, engaging in conversations and shopping for Eid. This is where brands must be, not just present, but relevant, engaging and seamlessly integrated into the Ramadan experience.

The question is, how do you cut through the clutter? The answer lies in the intersection of creativity and data driven precision. And that’s exactly where DXTA Technology thrives.

“Ramadan advertising is about being in the right places, with the right message, at the right time. DXTA’s AI-powered, programmatic ecosystem ensures that every touchpoint is optimised for engagement and conversion.

The AI-powered shift in Ramadan marketing

During Ramadan, consumer behaviour takes a sharp turn. Screen time skyrockets, social media becomes more interactive, online shopping surges and digital content consumption reaches new heights. This is an opportunity for marketers, but only if they leverage the right tools.

At DXTA, we don’t just run ads, we engineer impact. Our AI-driven, proprietary advertising technology platform ensures that brands don’t just appear on screens; they dominate them, with precision and engagement that’s second to none. Let’s break it down.

1. Programmatic advertising: precision meets scale

DXTA provides direct access to more than 25,000 premium websites globally, processing more than 20 billion daily impressions. But it’s not just about scale; it’s about precision. Our AI-powered audience targeting technology ensures your brand connects with real, high-intent audiences, within an engaging context.

2. High-impact programmatic takeovers: owning digital space

Ramadan is no time for subtlety. DXTA is the only technology platform in the region offering programmatic takeovers: full-screen, high-impact digital experiences that capture attention instantly.

Ramadan social media activity is different; it’s more personal, more engaged and more community-driven. DXTA’s AI-driven social media platform automates campaign planning, optimisation and reporting in real time. This means brands don’t just participate in Ramadan conversations; they lead them.

6. Programmatic DOOH: the power of real-world impact

Ramadan isn’t just digital; it’s also deeply rooted in physical experiences – shopping, dining out, traveling. DXTA’s Programmatic DOOH solution ensures brands reach audiences at the perfect moment. DXTA exclusively offers programmatic campaigns across our sister company Hypermedia extensive digital smart Retail Media network in the UAE. Our AI-powered audience identification technology can detect gender, clothing style and even behaviours, allowing for hyper-personalised outdoor advertising on metro screens, malls, hypermarkets and high-footfall destinations.
