LONDON – November 26, 2020 – Sage + Archer, the European programmatic digital Out-of-Home (DOOH) and mobile media buying platform is working with JCDecaux UK, scaling up reach in the UK.
The partnership enables advertisers and agencies across Europe to reach their target audiences efficiently by connecting high-impact JCDecaux UK Out-of-Home screens to mobile data and devices. The partnership was immediately put to good use with a campaign for the Flower Council of Holland.

Matterkind and UM used the Sage + Archer platform to reach the Flower Council of Holland’s urban target audience across media owners, including JCDecaux UK. Mobile data was utilised to pinpoint where and when to reach the intended audience across The Netherlands, Germany and the United Kingdom. The data-based approach reduced waste and increased campaign effectiveness.
Mark Bucknell, Chief Commercial Officer at JCDecaux UK: “We are delighted to be working with Sage + Archer in the UK. Programmatic Digital-Out-of-Home enables brands to reach audiences with contextually-relevant messaging, with the ability to serve impressions as and when a brand wants them, giving advertisers true flexibility. As the latest research from Lumen shows, running the creative across the public screen of OOH and the private screen of Mobile makes a campaign work harder, delivering enhanced outcomes for our clients.”
“We are thrilled to have partnered with JCDecaux in the UK ” said Diederick Ubels, Co-Founder at Sage + Archer. “The ability to combine out-of-home reach with mobile data enables media buyers the opportunity to run dynamic, effective and measurable out-of-home campaigns. With JCDecaux’s high impact, programmatic digital screens available in Sage + Archer, we offer brands and agencies the unique opportunity to reach audiences in the UK with access to over 90% of the DOOH marketplace.”
