UB Media Partners with Oongalee to Expand Canada's Largest Digital Restobar Media Offering with Interactive Tabletop Advertising

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Toronto, ON — June 25, 2026 — UB Media, a leading national digital out-of-home (DOOH) media company, today announced a strategic partnership with Oongalee, Canada's live commerce media platform, expanding its ability to deliver innovative and measurable brand experiences across the country's Restobar landscape.

Through this partnership, UB Media will now represent Oongalee's interactive tabletop media inventory alongside its own industry-leading Restobar Network. By combining these complementary media offerings, advertisers gain access to a unified network of 1,349 unique venues and 15,578 digital screens nationwide, creating one of Canada's most comprehensive digital media footprints within social dining and entertainment environments.

This strategic alliance significantly expands UB Media's commercial offering by introducing interactive and gamified advertising opportunities that complement its premium sight, sound, and motion network. Together, the two companies provide brands with enhanced opportunities to engage consumers across every stage of the on-premise experience—from large-format video awareness to direct consumer interaction at the table.

UB Media's Restobar Network currently delivers over 7.3 million weekly impressions across more than 2,000 digital screens in high-traffic venues nationwide. The addition of Oongalee's inventory extends that reach considerably, providing advertisers with access to highly engaged audiences through interactive touchpoints designed to drive participation, engagement, and measurable action.

Oongalee's interactive tabletop media platform enables consumers to engage directly with brand content through touch-enabled experiences, QR code activations, contests, instant offers, gamification, and mobile engagement opportunities.

By adding Oongalee to its portfolio, UB Media can now offer advertisers a broader range of campaign formats that combine the scale and impact of digital out-of-home with the engagement and measurability typically associated with digital media.

Together, UB Media and Oongalee offer advertisers:

  • National reach across 1,349 venues and 15,578 digital screens

  • High-impact sight, sound, and motion advertising environments

  • Interactive tabletop experiences that encourage consumer participation

  • Average consumer dwell times of over 70 minutes

  • Measurable engagement through QR scans, interactions, contests, and offers

  • Flexible regional and national campaign opportunities

  • Access to consumers during high-dwell social and entertainment occasions

"At UB Media, we're continually looking for innovative ways to help brands connect with consumers in meaningful and measurable ways," said Barb Huggett, SVP Sales at UB Media. "Partnering with Oongalee allows us to significantly expand our national reach while introducing interactive capabilities that create deeper engagement opportunities within the Restobar environment."

"We couldn't be more excited to partner with UB Media," said Amrit Sagoo Co-Founder at Oongalee. "Both of our organizations are proudly Canadian and share a passion for innovation, customer service and delivering measurable results. Together, we're creating a powerful network that will connect Canada's leading brands with consumers in one of the most engaging environments possible."

The complementary nature of both networks creates new opportunities for brands to build awareness, increase engagement, and drive measurable outcomes within one of Canada's most valuable consumer environments.
