Through this targeting, the floating button can be properly served even on open RTB. In simple terms, the system is looking for a topframe=1 signal in the bid. It will be on the bid that has this signal. Top frame targeting is enabled by adops.

- Local issues with users browser ( JS cache, browser/device lag )
- Slow internet, can cause a dip in viewability ( scripts loading too long )
