MolocoMoloco Releases New State-of-the-Art Re-Engagement Models, Drives 15% ROAS Gains and Lowers CPA by 12%
Moloco has globally launched its AI-powered re-engagement models, designed to boost ROAS and lower CPA for app marketers, now generally available. Early results show up to 15% higher ROAS and 12% lower CPA. Re-engagement is increasingly vital as conversions grow 10x faster than user acquisition, with 5x more cost-effectiveness and stronger ROAS.
On Moloco's platform, re-engaged users yield 3x higher ARPU than UA users. However, retention challenges persist: 77% of users drop off within 3 days of install, and 30-day uninstall rates in non-gaming categories are high (e.g., Dating 61%, Lifestyle 49%). The new models feature shorter learning periods for faster optimal performance, enhanced targeting of high-intent lapsed users, and flexible goals like ROAS, CPA, and app open.
Moloco's top five gaming partners now invest 3x more in re-engagement, achieving greater returns with less investment. Moloco offers a single platform for full-funnel growth, enabling combined UA and re-engagement campaigns. Results include a trading app cutting first-deposit CPA by 50% and a gaming studio seeing 4x ROAS improvement and 3.5x CPA drop.
Re-engagement is essential for maximizing LTV and marketing efficiency.

AppsFlyerStrong open rates, weak app revenue: your email campaign isn’t broken. Your links are.
Email, SMS, and push are high-intent channels, but a structural gap between click and in-app action causes massive drop-off. CTRs of 30-40% often yield only 1-3% in-app conversion. The root cause is ESP link wrapping, which breaks deep link context and attribution. Fixing the handoff through proper deep linking can double purchase rates and unlock channel performance. Brands must treat the link as a continuation layer, not a redirect, and ensure context survives the transition.
