You Liang Hui: What Is It?
You Liang Hui (优量汇) is Tencent's advertising network platform, aggregating ad inventory from apps, mini-programs, and websites operated by third-party developers outside Tencent's own product ecosystem and connecting that inventory with advertiser demand sourced through Tencent Advertising (腾讯广告). It functions as the external, third-party-traffic layer of Tencent's advertising business, distinct from ad placements sold directly on Tencent-owned surfaces such as WeChat Moments, WeChat Official Accounts, WeChat Video Channels (视频号), QQ, Tencent Video, and Tencent News.
Developers, referred to as "媒体" (media partners) in Tencent's own terminology, integrate a Tencent-developed SDK into their apps, mini-programs, or websites to display ads in exchange for a share of advertising revenue. You Liang Hui supports seven ad format types — including open-screen/splash ads shown on app launch, native feed ads, rewarded video ads, banner ads, interstitial ads, and video pre-roll ads — and offers multiple pricing and auction models, including fixed-price waterfall arrangements, OCPM (optimized cost-per-mille) and OCPA (optimized cost-per-action) bidding assisted by AI-based optimization, and server-to-server real-time bidding (S2S Bidding) for programmatic demand.
Advertisers use You Liang Hui, as part of the broader Tencent Advertising platform, to reach audiences on third-party apps such as Ximalaya (喜马拉雅), Meitu (美图秀秀), and Bilibili, extending Tencent's audience-targeting data — built substantially on QQ and WeChat account signals — beyond Tencent's own apps. This third-party inventory sits alongside Tencent's owned-and-operated ad placements within Tencent's unified advertiser-facing platform, Tencent Advertising.
History and Naming
You Liang Hui's direct technical predecessor was Guangdiantong (广点通, commonly abbreviated "GDT"), the performance-advertising system Tencent launched in test form in October 2011, following Tencent chairman Pony Ma's announcement of an "open platform" strategy at Tencent's June 2011 partner conference. A dedicated mobile-app inventory product, the Guangdiantong Mobile Alliance (广点通移动联盟), launched in internal beta in June 2013 to aggregate advertising inventory from third-party mobile apps; this is the product now known as You Liang Hui. The service was renamed You Liang Hui in 2019, following a period of operating under the name "Tencent Alliance Advertising" (腾讯广告联盟), according to Sina Finance and Tencent's own official You Liang Hui Developer Agreement, which states the service "was formerly named the Tencent GDT Mobile Alliance Service." Some English-language third-party integration documentation, including Google's Mobile Ads mediation guides, continues to refer to the underlying system as "Tencent GDT" rather than by its current Chinese name.
You Liang Hui: Disambiguation
You Liang Hui should not be confused with the following related products and entities:
- Guangdiantong (广点通 / GDT)
- The original performance-advertising and audience-targeting technology system Tencent launched in 2011. You Liang Hui descends from Guangdiantong's mobile-alliance product, and the two names are sometimes used interchangeably in developer documentation and third-party mediation tools, but "Guangdiantong" more properly refers to the underlying ad-serving and targeting technology rather than the external app-network product itself.
- Tencent Social Ads (腾讯社交广告)
- The umbrella brand Tencent used from around 2015 for its advertiser-facing, owned-and-operated ad placements on QQ and WeChat. You Liang Hui is the external, third-party-inventory counterpart to these owned placements, not a synonym for them.
- Tencent Advertising (腾讯广告)
- The current unified advertiser-facing platform and brand under which You Liang Hui operates alongside WeChat Moments ads, Official Account ads, and other Tencent-owned placements. You Liang Hui is one inventory source within Tencent Advertising, not a synonym for the whole platform.
- Tencent Marketing Alliance (腾讯营销联盟)
- A separate aggregation and mediation layer that lets developers configure bidding across multiple third-party ad networks, including but not limited to You Liang Hui. It is a mediation tool for combining networks, not an ad network itself.
- Pangle (穿山甲)
- ByteDance's competing mobile ad network. It is frequently compared with You Liang Hui in developer guides as China's other leading ad network, but it is a separate company's product with no ownership relationship to Tencent.
- Baiqingteng (百青藤) and Kuaishou Alliance (快手联盟)
- Ad networks operated by Baidu and Kuaishou respectively. Both are competitors to You Liang Hui rather than related or affiliated products.
- Tencent Ads (overseas self-service advertiser platform)
- A separately branded product aimed at advertisers based outside mainland China. It is not the same product as the domestic You Liang Hui developer/publisher network described on this page, though both operate under Tencent's broader advertising business.
