The advertising firm has released its Global Facebook Advertising Benchmark Report for Q4 2016. The report studies ad spend on the social network for the holiday period.
It found that 18.9% of all mobile ad spend in the Americas was spent on video ads. Game advertisers were the main advertisers to increase video spend, though Nanigan didn't break out specific numbers on how much they spent.
