Behavioral targeting, multilingual, high-frequency retargeting success

OANDA Trade is a global trading platform offering forex and crypto assets. They wanted to rapidly scale crypto registrations and deposits for their new crypto division. OANDA used Blockchain-Ads to reach high-intent users with capital and trading history.

Campaign Overview

The campaign aimed to drive new crypto user registrations and deposit volume for OANDA’s crypto division. With a 30-day timeframe, the campaign focused on performance and precision, while maintaining a strong return on ad spend (ROAS). Using a total ad spend $64,073.20, with the primary goals to maximize conversions and deposit volume.

Strategy

  • Smart Contract Interaction Segments: Targeted users who interacted with centralized exchange smart contracts and Layer 2 DeFi bridges, identifying active cross-platform traders.
  • Behavioral Scoring: Prioritized users making frequent stablecoin transactions in the last 30 days, rather than filtering only by wallet balance.
  • Multilingual Funnel: Ads were localized for English (US/UK/Canada), Arabic (UAE/KSA), and French (France/North Africa), addressing market-specific pain points.
  • Pre-Qualification Ads: Some creatives highlighted OANDA’s regulatory compliance and advanced trading tools to repel low-intent users.
  • High-Frequency Retargeting: Dynamic creatives were refreshed frequently to reflect asset volatility and offer urgency, optimizing bounce re-engagement.

Results

  • Total Conversions: 1,932
  • Total Deposit Volume: $805,520
  • Total Impressions: 18,500,000
  • Total Clicks: 71,400
