Radio advertising in South Africa

South Africa has one of the most sophisticated radio markets in the world, with stations broadcasting in 11 official languages to millions of listeners every day.

In a market this competitive, verified airplay data is an edge — SoundIt gives South African advertisers and agencies independent proof of every airing.

Verify every airing on South African stations

Upload your ad once, and SoundIt creates an acoustic fingerprint of it. Our monitors then record your chosen stations around the clock, matching the live broadcast against your ad every few seconds.

Every detection is logged with the station, date and time — and the actual broadcast clip is saved, so you can hear exactly what went to air.

Agencies can manage every client under one account, each with their own campaigns, dashboards and PDF reports. Brands get independent proof that their media budget delivered.
