Criteo and Flipkart dial up Motorola’s buzz with data-driven ads
MUMBAI: Call it a smart move Motorola’s brand buzz just got a signal boost. In a bid to turbocharge its budget smartphone presence, Motorola teamed up with Flipkart Ads and global commerce media giant Criteo to launch a data-fuelled campaign that’s made noise for all the right reasons. Over a 13-month stretch, this retail media offsite strategy didn’t just work, it rang in results loud and clear.
Using Flipkart’s Product Performance Ads and Criteo’s Retail Media Offsite Solution, the campaign reached 110 million unique users, clocked over 1.1 billion ad impressions, and achieved a remarkable 34 percent engagement rate. But more than just vanity metrics, it translated into business results: an 18 percent rise in Share of Voice (SOV) for Motorola on Flipkart’s product pages.
The goal? To engage high-intent audiences not just on Flipkart, but across the wider internet and then lead them back to Flipkart’s app and website. With Criteo’s precision-targeting and Flipkart’s first-party data at play, the dynamic display ads served to 86 percent of the relevant audience base delivered a full-funnel marketing impact.
According to Motorola, marketing head, APAC Shivam Ranjan, “The collaboration has helped Motorola forge direct connections with more than 110 million high-intent users. The campaign’s performance validates our commitment to data-led storytelling and customer engagement.”
Flipkart Ads vice president and general manager Vijay Iyer highlighted the importance of the campaign’s closed-loop strategy: “Our Product Performance Ads helped Motorola scale up with high-impact re-engagement tactics using real-time performance data and audience intelligence.”
Meanwhile Criteo India country head Medhavi Singh called it a demonstration of “cutting through the digital clutter” with hyper-personalised engagement. She added, “The real-time insights and tight integration with retail platforms allowed us to tailor the messaging, improving visibility and conversions across every touchpoint.”
The partnership underscores a wider shift in digital commerce where data, not discounts, drive discovery. With the retail and e-commerce space becoming more crowded than ever, this campaign is a case study in how to get seen, heard, and remembered.
The success story signals a new era for Indian e-commerce marketing, one where personalised, offsite display ads could just be the main character in a brand’s growth narrative.
