In ad tech, a ‘stack’ refers to a single vendor that offers a variety of marketing services. Stacks are designed to consolidate the steps of ad-buying, ad-selling, inventor management, billing, measurement, and reporting into a single integrated software suite. Depending on which package is chosen, services such as social media, search, retargeting, and offline media might also be part of the offering.
