Launch announcement

Self-service entertainment advertisers can now run Feature Rotator ads on Fire TV

2 October 2023

What’s launched?

Feature Rotator is a carousel ad placement that appears above the fold of the Fire TV Home screen, making it one of the most visible placements in the Fire TV UI. This placement is now available to self-service entertainment advertisers in 11 marketplaces: US, CA, MX, BR, AU, UK, DE, FR, IT, ES and NL.

When the user navigates to the ad via the remote, the initial static imagery is replaced with an autoplay video with audio enabled. After a moment, the video expands to fill the majority of the screen. At this point, the customer can use the left and right buttons to view other content items in the rotator or continue to watch the rest of the video.

Ad Formats
