History

In 1999 the company was established in Sweden by Martin Lorentzon and Felix Hagnö as the first affiliate network which operates across Europe with the idea to offer performance-based affiliate marketing solutions. Only two years after the foundation of Tradedoubler, the company was awarded the prestigious Swedish "Guldmusen" prize as "IT Rookie of the Year".

Since 2005 Tradedoubler has been listed on NASDAQ Stockholm.[4] In the same year the compyn launched a white-label solution for global partner management called Tradedoubler PVN. In 2014 Tradedoubler launched a Business Intelligence solution which provides advertisers (brands) with detailed live information about their program performance and visualises complex data through customised dashboards. One year later, Tradedoubler launched a cookieless tracking technology and in 2016 cross-device tracking. Also in 2016, Tradedoubler acquired the email marketing agency R-Advertising in France. In this year the French media group Reworld Media became Tradedoubler's mahority owner by acquiring a 19.1% stake in the company.[5][6] In 2017, Reworld Media increased its shareholding in Tradedoubler to 40%. In 2023 their shareholidng in Tradedoubler is at 51.8%.[7]

Since 2017 Tradedoubler expanded its product portfolio through investments, acquisitions, and the further development of in-house solutions. This includes the purchase of the influencer network Metapic which is now an essentioal part of the Tradedoubler business. Through the acquisition of shares in Onbaz in 2022 and the purchase of zezam in 2023, Metapic has expanded its business further.

The year 2020 was marked with the launch of Grow by Tradedoubler which enables affiliate marketing for smaller businesses. In addition, the acquisition of the assets of PocketMedia took place which led to the foundation of Appiness one year later.
