Dublin, Feb. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Indonesia Digital Advertising - Market Share Analysis, Industry Trends & Statistics, Growth Forecasts (2026-2031)" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering. The report segments the market by formats (Display/Banner, Video), devices (Mobile, Desktop/Laptop), verticals (FMCG, Telecom, etc.), and buying models (CPC, CPM). Companies like PT Google Indonesia, Meta Platforms Inc., ByteDance Ltd., and others are covered in the report.

The Indonesia digital advertising market is projected to expand from USD 3.23 billion in 2025 to USD 4.51 billion by 2031, reflecting a CAGR of 5.70% from 2026 to 2031. This growth is driven by a significant rise in smartphone usage, integration of social commerce, and increased video content consumption.

Brands are shifting towards performance-oriented models to ensure measurable results, and super-apps are exploring consolidation. Sovereign AI investments are localizing creative endeavors, while stricter data privacy policies shape competitive strategies. The expansion of connected TV and live commerce is generating new opportunities for inventory monetization, prompting advertisers to adopt omnichannel strategies that connect brand awareness to conversion. Moreover, new brand safety standards and contextual verification tools help protect brand reputation.

Smartphone Penetration and Mobile Internet Boom

Indonesia's transition to a mobile-first market is influencing advertising budgets. With smartphone ownership expected to rise from 86% in 2025 to 91.3% by 2028 and 4G coverage reaching most populated areas, advertisers can reliably employ programmatic techniques. Concentrated efforts by key operators like Telkomsel ensure deterministic audience data, while increasing mobile traffic cements the market's focus on handheld devices.

Budget Shift from Traditional to Digital Media

Brands are allocating more resources to online platforms as traditional channels like linear TV and OOH face challenges. Between 2023-2025, national advertisers shifted 7 percentage points of their budgets to digital, supported by robust ROI evidence. Indonesian brands embrace multi-format experimentation, leading to innovations like dynamic creative optimization.

Ad-fraud and Brand-safety Concerns

With election-year misinformation on the rise, brands are investing in verification solutions that assess content at a granular level. Demand for transparency is increasing, but inconsistent publisher quality can lead to higher monitoring costs. Until standards solidify, sections of the market may face challenges related to pricing.

Other drivers and restraints:

Segment Analysis

Video ads captured 34.02% of market spend in 2025, benefiting from OTT viewership spikes and robust measurement tools.
