About This Ad Tag Example
This VAST 3.0 wrapper tag example from AdPlayer.Pro demonstrates how to redirect to another VAST tag while maintaining comprehensive tracking and analytics. The wrapper includes a VASTAdTagURI element that points to AdPlayer.Pro's VAST video content, allowing publishers to track impressions and video engagement events (start, quartiles, complete) before passing the request to the final VAST response. This approach is commonly used for server-side ad insertion, mediation waterfalls, and multi-tier advertising setups where multiple parties need to track ad delivery and performance. The tag includes impression tracking, creative view events, video progress tracking (0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, 100%), and click tracking, making it ideal for CTV/OTT and OLV campaigns requiring detailed analytics and attribution.
