What is Companion CTR?

Companion CTR is the click rate on the display banner that appears alongside an audio ad. Rates are low by nature, since most listening is screen-off, so judge it against audio benchmarks, not display.

Worked example

If companion clicks is 420 and companion impressions is 150,000, then Companion CTR = 0.28%.

Companion CTR = (Companion clicks ÷ Companion impressions) × 100

Tactical application guide

Companion CTR links companion clicks and companion impressions in a fixed ratio, so any two pin down the third. Planning backwards is where it earns its keep: enter the companion clicks you have and the Companion CTR you are targeting, and the solver tells you the companion impressions you must secure. Or lock companion impressions and Companion CTR from a benchmark to see the companion clicks that plan implies before you commit.
