“Q3 2018 was a mixed bag for us. On the upside, Zedge Premium, our marketplace for digital content, shows early promising potential. Even without aggressive promotion or deep product integration, usage and conversion rates are outpacing our expectations,” said Tom Arnoy, CEO. “We are heavily focused on scaling Zedge Premium, initially by building a robust self-serve platform which will enable far broader artist participation, expanding the number of content verticals that we support, and increasing the number of ways in which artists can market and monetize their content. Separately, we are happy to announce that Nicki Minaj, a multi-platinum artist, is now using Zedge Premium to promote her new music and upcoming world tour.”
