2021-18 Release Notes

Release Date: June 5, 2021

Sprint Overview

This sprint focus on several backend and server code enhancements. Most of these changes are needed for internal reporting and accounting needs. We did release a feature with the Video product that was typically solved through custom templating but now it is an easy adaption to a video template so customers can easily utilize consumer savings in their video ads.

MSRP and Price Delta – Show The Savings

When using dynamic video ads for automotive advertisers you can now select a pricing structure that mimics standard Dealer VDP pricing structure at the ad version level. For instance, a dealer website may use a pricing structure of “MSRP – Discount = Final Price.” If you select “Advertised Discount” when creating an ad version, the final video output will mimic this pricing. You will see an original price, a final price and a reduction amount for each record. Simialr to the Reduced by value below consumers will see the difference in MSRP and the dealer’s price.
