CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Commerce Signals, a platform that connects advertisers and publishers to aggregate insights from transaction data, today announced a partnership with LiveRamp, an Acxiom company and leading provider of omnichannel identity resolution. Via this partnership, Commerce Signals and LiveRamp enable advertisers to measure the online and in-store sales impact of their advertising consistently across digital publishers and devices at the individual level.
Commerce Signals’ secure platform allows advertisers and agencies to access aggregate transaction insights from approximately 70 percent of U.S. card-based purchases in near-real-time. With these insights, it’s possible to measure how different tactics are performing, and optimize those tactics based on actual sales response. Using IdentityLink™, LiveRamp’s identity resolution service, advertisers can resolve online impression and offline sales data at the people-based level, and obtain a holistic view of advertising matched to sales.
“To effectively compete in today’s world, marketers need to build an omnichannel understanding of the consumer, and ultimately decipher the path to purchase,” said Jeff Smith, CMO, LiveRamp. “We’re excited to work with Commerce Signals to connect their data through IdentityLink with advertising exposure data to advance the discipline of people-based measurement and bring a better understanding of return on advertising spend to marketers.”
“Together, Commerce Signals and LiveRamp are providing an accessible entry point to deterministic sales measurement, with the same methodology and data source across publishers,” said Tom Noyes, CEO, Commerce Signals. “We’re taking the headache out of measurement by making it easier and quicker than ever. With LiveRamp, a new advertiser can get started in three to five days, enabling a model where you only pay for the data you use.”
In partnership with Commerce Signals, LiveRamp is giving away 1 billion impressions across LiveRamp IdentityLink-enabled partners to measure campaign performance with Commerce Signals.
