About

Was one of the leading mobile app monetization and user acquisition platforms globally, particularly dominant in the mobile gaming vertical before being absorbed into Unity Software.

ironSource was an Israeli software company focused on developing technologies for app monetization and distribution, with its core products centered on the app economy.
