English term or phrase: drives more than 10% of
The company incorporated this feature into their mobile ad strategy, and now finds mobile [drives more than 10% of] online sales.

Guys, I'm not sure the meaning of this expression here. Does the author mean mobile has increased online sales by 10%, or mobile has driven the sales so much so that the sales from mobile accounts for 10% of the total online sales?
