Rich Media Mobile Advertising (RMMA)

Definition - What does Rich Media Mobile Advertising (RMMA) mean?

Rich media mobile advertising (RMMA) is mobile advertisement that allows multimedia applications to be encapsulated in different virtual mobile contexts, including mobile Web browsing or mobile applications.

RMMA applications and browsers offer multimedia experiences to users that go beyond just displaying text, static pictures and animations or video. RMMA allows users to enter media elements such as ad banners by extending them across the page, creating a larger surface area for the display of information and interaction.

Rich media mobile ads have certain advantages over conventional display advertising in terms of both the enhancement and the streamlining of the user experience. Advertisers or agencies prefer rich media mobile ads because they create an exciting user experience and convey information to the user more effectively.
