About the Platform

What is RetiBazaar?

RetiBazaar is an AI-driven OOH (Out-of-Home) advertising marketplace designed to simplify how outdoor media is planned, bought, sold, and measured. It brings together media buyers and media owners on a single platform supported by data, analytics, and intelligent recommendations.

Instead of relying on guesswork or fragmented information, RetiBazaar provides structured insights such as reach, impressions, traffic intensity, and audience context. This helps users make informed decisions while maintaining transparency and trust across the ecosystem.

RetiBazaar is built for two primary users: media buyers (brands, agencies, advertisers) and media sellers (media owners, operators, and publishers). Each user type has a dedicated dashboard designed around their specific workflows and objectives.

Buyers focus on planning, targeting, and performance insights, while sellers focus on listing inventory, managing pricing, and understanding how their locations perform. This separation ensures clarity without compromising collaboration.

RetiBazaar currently offers OOH analytics and marketplace coverage across Nigeria. All insights, audience measurements, and traffic estimations are designed at a Pan-Nigeria level, enabling both regional and nationwide campaigns.

This allows advertisers to plan consistently across multiple cities or states while sellers benefit from standardized exposure and measurement across the country.

The platform supports both Static OOH (billboards, unipoles, wall wraps, etc.) and Digital OOH (DOOH) formats. Each screen type is handled differently to reflect real-world viewing behavior and exposure patterns.

This distinction ensures that impressions and reach estimates are realistic and tailored to how audiences interact with different formats.

Reach and impressions are estimated using a combination of traffic flow patterns, surrounding activity levels, location context, and media characteristics such as screen type and venue environment.

Rather than using flat averages, RetiBazaar dynamically adjusts these values to reflect how visible and impactful a location is relative to others, providing a more realistic view of performance.

POIs (Points of Interest) represent commonly visited places such as shopping areas, transport hubs, religious centers, or entertainment zones. They help indicate where people naturally congregate.

By analyzing POIs around media locations, RetiBazaar provides context on audience presence and activity, helping users align placements with campaign intent.

Traffic classification provides a relative indicator of how busy an area is compared to others. Instead of raw numbers, locations are categorized to quickly communicate visibility potential.

This makes it easier for both buyers and sellers to assess location quality without needing technical traffic data.

Yes. Every inventory submission undergoes an admin verification process before becoming visible to buyers. This includes checking geo-coordinates, media specifications, pricing consistency, and visual references.

This review process ensures quality, accuracy, and trust across the marketplace.
