There is nothing unusual about a new brand campaign claiming broad reach. What makes Lotto24’s latest move more interesting is the channel choice behind it. As reported by MEEDIA on July 1, 2026, the campaign leans into linear TV and Connected TV while leaving out out-of-home and radio for now. That is not just a creative rollout detail. It is a media-allocation signal.
What changed in the plan
The obvious reading is that Lotto24 wants scale and visibility. The better reading is that it is prioritizing environments where attention can be concentrated and message control is stronger. Linear TV still offers fast reach, while CTV adds a more addressable and measurable layer. Choosing both together suggests a willingness to build overlap deliberately rather than spreading budget across every traditional awareness channel.
For marketing leaders, the important point is not whether this exact mix is universally correct. It is that the brand appears to be making sharper inclusion and exclusion decisions. In many organizations, media planning still defaults to historical channel comfort. A plan gets built by inheritance: TV, some digital video, some radio, some OOH, and then small adjustments around the edges. That is often safer politically than it is strategically.
Why this matters now
In a more fragmented video environment, attention is not evenly distributed across formats just because the planning sheet includes them. A tighter plan can outperform a broader one if the chosen channels fit the audience, the creative, and the measurement model better. That is especially true when a campaign targets younger or mixed-age audiences that split time across broadcast and streaming environments.

If your current media plan still grows by habit, Lotto24’s move is a useful prompt. Ask whether each channel is there because it serves the audience and the business objective, or because removing it would start an uncomfortable internal conversation. In 2026, sharper omission may be a bigger competitive advantage than broader presence.
