Despite the loss of signal, CTV retargeting to mobile devices can work

By Alyssa Boyle

Mobile retargeting is an integral part of CTV’s functionality formula.

And while streaming campaigns don’t use third-party cookies (there are no cookies in CTV media), the IP address, email, or familiar knowledge that anchors CTV campaigns will need to be adapted to a smartphone or cell phone user for retargeting to work.

On Monday, Intent IQ, Strategus and PubMatic announced a partnership to help advertisers retarget iOS device owners after watching an ad on a smart TV. Strategus advertisers will need to access Intent IQ audience segments and campaign execution will be done through PubMatic.

The challenge is to make the procedure of retargeting CTV to mobile devices work when Apple’s IDFA requires voluntary consent (many other people don’t consent) and third-party cookies disappear. The formula requires a small number of trackable users. And for iOS, at least, the scale it used to be.

Balancing the Scales

For Strategus, retargeting CTV to mobile used to be straightforward, Cox said.

But after Apple released its AppTrackingTransparency framework, it became much more difficult to locate and track iOS users. After ATT, Strategus found that a little over a quarter of its retargeting impressions were for iOS devices, out of the expected 50-50 split between iOS and Android. Devices.

Strategus is keen to retarget iOS users, as they tend to be younger and higher-earned, Cox said.

Strategus went live with Intent IQ, an identity provider. Publishers and sell-side monetization platforms (such as Taboola, Primis, and Mediavine) leverage Intent IQ to place first-party cookies on publishers’ sites to protect data about site visitors, such as IP address, browser and device type, said Fabrice Beer-Gabel, the company’s vice president of strategy and partnerships.

Intent IQ also has a knowledge management platform (DMP) partner, Datonics, which aggregates and acquires knowledge from publishers and sales platforms.

In the case of this integration, Strategus creates audience segments by matching a brand’s unique awareness to Intent IQ’s DMP. A Strategus customer could target iOS users who belong to a specific age diversity and have express interests, such as those who like to cook or play golf.

Intent IQ also uses an identity graph within its DMP to organize Americans through family. So while there’s some guesswork in determining which family members have noticed an ad on CTV, advertisers can still retarget those who fall for a safe target. audience segments (such as other people searching for a car) after an ad is shown on CTV, Gabel says.

While it’s still too early to identify functionality trends (campaigns are still in their attribution windows), Cox said Strategus has targeted roughly the same percentage of impressions to iPhone users since testing the new Intent IQ integration as before. in strength.
