    What Are Push Notification Ads?

    Overview

    Push notifications are native browser alerts that reach users directly on their desktop or mobile device, even when they're not actively browsing your website. These notifications appear in the user's notification center and provide an excellent way to re-engage audiences with timely, relevant messaging that drives clicks and conversions.
