Goodbye Forced Clicks, Hello Intentional Engagement
Picnic’s in-house experts design formats with the user in mind, optimising towards intentional engagement rather than accidental or forced clicks.

No forced clicks
The ad-funded web is rife with ad formats optimised for maximum clicks, with no consideration for the quality of those clicks, and whether or not they were actually intentional. Picnic avoids this with formats designed for user-led, intuitive engagement.
No disruptive pop-ups
Does disrupting users actually have positive outcomes for your brand? Our survey with YouGov suggests not - 71% of people say they’re less likely to purchase from a brand which shows them an intrusive ad. That’s why Picnic’s formats are designed to work with the user’s journey, rather than disrupting it.
No blocked content
Blocked screen content was named the second most annoying ad experience according to respondents from our YouGov survey. Picnic formats are designed to fit seamlessly within publisher environments, with assets optimised to function within the dedicated ad slot.
