InMobi CMP (formerly Quantcast Choice): ownership, TCF and GPP support, Google certification and pricing
Published · Last updated
Next review:
InMobi CMP is the consent management platform once sold as Quantcast Choice. InMobi bought it in 2023 and now runs it for web and app publishers. IAB Europe lists InMobi as TCF CMP 10, Google certifies it, and a free Essentials tier sits beside a $20 Premium tier (InMobi, CMP Premium).

What it does
Quantcast Choice became popular as a free CMP for web publishers. When InMobi bought it, the deal release said InMobi would keep it free for existing customers and extend that to new ones (Quantcast, 16 August 2023). InMobi's stated aim was to bring the CMP into its app SDK, which it said reached 40,000 apps (company claim, same release).
InMobi's own documentation now calls the product "InMobi CMP (formerly Quantcast Choice)" (InMobi CMP docs). Google's list and InMobi's support menu use a third form, "InMobi Choice CMP". All three names describe one product with one IAB CMP ID.
The free promise still holds in part. Every site or app can use the Essentials tier at no cost, with TCF and GPP strings and Consent Mode v2. InMobi says geo-targeting, custom vendors, reporting and branding control "will now fall under Premium" (InMobi, Premium FAQ). The table below shows the split.

How it works
A publisher adds a universal tag to the site or the SDK to the app and configures themes and vendors in InMobi's portal. The tag then shows the right screen and writes the TC String, the GPP string and the legacy US Privacy String. InMobi's web changelog tracks each standard by date (InMobi, web changelog, updated 22 December 2025):
- 29 February 2024: Google Basic Consent and Global Privacy Control support (version 52).
- 4 June 2024: GPP support on the web.
- 21 October 2024: the Disclosed Vendors segment added to the TC String.
- 16 July 2025: MSPA support for ten more states, from Florida to Tennessee.
- 15 December 2025: a GPC message on the banner and updated IAB TCF libraries.

Pricing
InMobi publishes its price. Essentials is free for all apps and sites. Premium costs USD 20 per domain or app per month, and it is free for a property that monetises through InMobi's SSP (InMobi, Premium FAQ, updated 25 February 2026). A property counts as SSP-integrated once it has served at least 500 ad impressions through InMobi's SSP in the past seven days (same source). A publisher with five sites that needs region targeting would pay $100 a month at list price, unless it sells inventory through InMobi.
Two Premium features, Consent or Pay and custom GDPR consent text, were still marked "coming soon" on 9 November 2026 (InMobi, CMP Premium).
Strengths and limits
Strengths
- A real free tier. Essentials includes TCF, GPP and unlimited pageviews at no cost (InMobi, Premium FAQ).
- Wide US state list. InMobi's docs cover US National and 15 of the 20 state sections; Minnesota, Maryland, Indiana, Kentucky and Rhode Island are not listed (IAB Tech Lab, GPP sections).
- Google certified for web and app. It meets Google's certified-CMP rule for the EEA, UK and Switzerland (Google).
Limits
- Geo-targeting costs extra. Free properties can only choose "Worldwide", so every visitor sees a consent screen.
- No CTV. The IAB registration covers web and app only.
- Documentation lags the standard. InMobi's TCF page still describes TCF 2.2, and we found no note on TCF 2.4 (InMobi TCF docs).
- Tied pricing. Premium is free only with InMobi's SSP, which links the CMP choice to a monetisation partner.
Alternatives
- Usercentrics and Cookiebot: free tiers for small sites and paid plans from €7 a month with TCF 2.4.
- Open-source CMPs (Klaro, Orejime): free code, but not registered for the TCF.
- Sourcepoint: an enterprise option for publishers that also need CTV.
Test an InMobi string with the TCF consent string decoder, and see GPP and TCF implementation for engineers for how it reaches bidders. More pages sit on the identity and privacy hub.
What we could not verify
- Whether InMobi CMP met the TCF 2.4 web deadline of 23 October 2026. The web changelog was last updated on 22 December 2025.
- The date Premium launched and the date the features moved out of the free tier.
- The original launch date of Quantcast Choice.
- Where consent logs are stored, and how many publishers use the CMP today.
