Pause Ads: The New Trend in Streaming
Update: 2025-11-10
Description
Pause ads are revolutionizing streaming content, with major platforms like Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, and Hulu now using them. These ads appear when you hit pause, offering interactive features and direct purchasing options. Companies are betting that viewers will be more receptive to ads during self-initiated pauses. Amazon has seen a 12% increase in purchases, and Netflix found that 77% of ad-tier members keep a pause ad on screen for 15 seconds or more. Other services are expanding their strategies, with Disney introducing Pause Plus for trivia games and coupons. The goal is to make ads feel less intrusive and prove that good ads dont have to interrupt the viewing experience.
