Accountability and New Choices for Marketers

2 min read

Facebook and Instagram are enhancing transparency, choice, and accountability for over four million advertisers. They will share detailed impression-level data including milliseconds for ad in-view and duration. The platforms commit to an MRC audit to verify accuracy.

Third-party verification expands to 24 global partners for reach, attribution, demographics, brand lift, sales, and mobile measurement. New video buying options include completed-view (pay for full views up to 10 seconds), two-second (MRC standard), and sound-on buying. These options offer flexibility for diverse campaign objectives and align with mobile creative best practices.

Independent Data Collaboration Platforms Are Gone — Except One

Data collaboration platforms are consolidating under ad-centric owners, threatening measurement neutrality. Publicis bought LiveRamp, WPP acquired InfoSum, and LiveRamp absorbed Habu, leaving AppsFlyer as the only major independent player. Brands must vet partners for conflicts: does the platform or its parent benefit from ad spend? Without independence, budget allocation and ROAS calculations may reflect agency incentives over actual performance. Key questions: revenue from ads, cross-channel attribution consistency, data governance, and auditable methodology.

Mobile Measurement Set the Standard. Web Is Finally Catching Up.

Mobile performance marketing succeeded by building a signal infrastructure—independent attribution, fraud protection, and structured postbacks—that fed optimization-grade data to ad platforms. Web measurement has lagged, relying on fragmented, platform-reported metrics. As AI-driven campaign optimization becomes standard, bad signals amplify errors. AppsFlyer’s Web Performance Measurement brings mobile-grade signals to web: independent attribution, server-to-server postbacks, cross-platform closed loops, and unified cost/revenue measurement. For ad ops decision-makers, this means one truth source, actionable optimization signals across networks, and complete omnichannel ROAS visibility—enabling AI to compound advantage, not error.

What eCommerce brands get wrong about retail media measurement

Retail media networks report ROAS using different methodologies, causing up to 63% fluctuation across networks for the same campaign. This isn't a data quality issue but a structural one. Brands using multiple networks face a fragmentation tax where each network is its own source of truth, and budget decisions based on these irreconcilable figures are misleading. Independent measurement, applying the same attribution logic across all networks, is needed to reconcile data and enable confident cross-channel decisions. The signal infrastructure for this already exists from mobile measurement.
