Platform and regulatory changes have made it more challenging to understand the full impact and performance of your App campaigns. Google’s Integrated Conversion Measurement (ICM) solution directly addresses these challenges by offering more accurate and comprehensive cross-channel attribution across iOS and Android in your third-party App Attribution Partner interfaces. Ultimately, with improved reporting visibility, you will be able to make more informed business decisions and improve return on ad spend.
Benefits of using Integrated Conversion Measurement
Google’s Integrated Conversion Measurement is an innovative protocol which provides more real-time, comprehensive, and accurate attribution in your third-party App Attribution Partner interfaces. With this solution, you can gain a clearer picture of how your App campaigns for installs are driving conversions across both iOS and Android devices, providing actionable insights to effectively optimize campaign performance and allocate budgets.
Key benefits:
-
Enhanced reporting across iOS & Android: Enables real-time and event-level reporting of your campaign performance. On iOS, advertisers will get improved reporting for app conversions from iOS 14+ users. On Android, advertisers will get better reporting for app conversions from the European Economic Area (EEA) or when a user opts out of device-level permissions.
-
Privacy-preserving techniques: Incorporates innovative technologies, such as on-device conversion measurement, to improve measurement accuracy, all without compromising user privacy.
-
Flexible integrations: Integrates reporting improvements for advertisers using third-party App Attribution Partners, and for those using the App Conversion Tracking API for attribution.
