At A Glance

Experian’s Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes joint solution connects digital identifiers with rich consumer attributes. Our joint solution supports identity resolution, cross-channel media activation, analytics, and measurement, helping marketers unify fragmented signals and drive greater reach and insight.

What is Experian’s Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes?

Experian’s Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes joint solution is a unified identity and data framework that connects digital identifiers with rich consumer attributes.

Experian’s Digital Graph connects digital identifiers to people and households, while Experian’s Marketing Attributes add depth, including demographics, interests, shopping behavior, and media preferences. Together, they help marketers and platforms with the insights and connectivity they need to understand who their customers are and reach them across digital channels.

How signal fragmentation and omnichannel are reshaping audience connection

Signal fragmentation and third-party cookie uncertainty are reshaping how our industry reaches consumers. At the same time, omnichannel media consumption spreads engagement across platforms, creating a broader but more complex view of consumer behavior. Together, these shifts are pushing marketers and platforms to rethink how they connect insights, activation, and reach across channels, opening the door to more unified approaches.

How Experian’s joint solution helps marketers and platforms address signal fragmentation and omnichannel behavior

Our Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes joint solution helps marketers and platforms navigate signal fragmentation and omnichannel behavior by providing identifiers for seamless cross-channel engagement. By adding Marketing Attributes to our Digital Graph, like demographic and behavioral data, marketers and platforms can gain a better understanding of their consumers. Our joint solution uses Experian’s identity keys, the Living Unit ID (LUID) and Person ID (PID), to combine offline and digital data, giving you deeper insights into consumer behavior, greater audience reach, and improved cross-channel visibility.

“Digital Graph” identifiers (hashed email, MAIDs, CTV IDs, cookies, IP addresses, universal IDs) alongside “Experian Marketing Attributes” (financial, interests, shopping patterns, car ownership, media consumption).

What are the benefits of Experian’s Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes joint solution?

Our Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes joint solution brings identity and insight into a single framework, supporting the following benefits:

Consumer insights

Experian’s 5,000 Marketing Attributes provide you with detailed consumer information and insights, such as age, gender, purchase behaviors, and content consumption habits. Marketing Attributes help you create more relevant messaging and informed audience segmentation.

Consumer connectivity

With Experian’s Digital Graph, you can access digital identifiers like mobile ad IDs (MAIDs), connected TV (CTV) IDs, hashed emails (HEMs), and universal IDs to target the right consumers with the relevant messages across all digital media channels.

“Consumer insights” and “Consumer connectivity,” explaining how Marketing Attributes and Digital Graph identifiers work together to improve media strategy and cross-channel reach.

Four ways to use Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes

When our Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes come together, you get a 360-degree view of your consumers, powering four critical use cases:

1. Analytics and insights

Connect Marketing Attributes to Digital Graph identifiers to understand audience composition. A retailer may identify shared interests among recent customers and adjust brand activation or messaging strategies.

2. Inventory monetization

Supply-side platforms and publishers can use enriched audience insights to attract advertisers seeking specific consumer groups.

3. Activation

Expanded identifier coverage supports reach across channels with frequency management. Advertisers can engage defined audiences wherever digital content is consumed.

4. Measurement and attribution

Our Digital Graph supports exposure and conversion analysis across identifiers. Marketing Attributes help identify which audience segments responded to messaging.

How OpenX uses Experian’s Digital Graph and Marketing Attributes joint solution

OpenX is an independent omni-channel supply-side platform (SSP) focused on audience and identity-based targeting across CTV, mobile, app, and desktop environments.

OpenX licenses Experian’s Digital Graph to support one of the largest independent supply-side identity graphs. The addition of Experian Marketing Attributes enriched this graph with consumer-level insight tied to IPs, MAIDs, and client identifiers.

This approach has supported greater addressability and insight for buyers and improved monetization opportunities for publishers during ongoing signal fragmentation.

“We built on our long-term partnership with Experian to enrich our digital IDs with Experian’s Marketing Attributes, which help provide buyers better insights to audiences, thereby helping our publishers monetize their inventory. With partners like Experian, OpenX effectively facilitates the value exchange between demand and supply, ensuring our partners are able to drive results for their business in the era of signal fragmentation”

Tapad, a part of Experian, partners with Sojern to simplify the complex travel consumer journey

Tapad Device Graph™ and Sojern’s mobile offering unify travel intent signals; achieve amplification rate of more than 600 percent NEW YORK, June 15, 2017 – Tapad, a part of Experian, the leader in cross-device marketing technology, is partnering with Sojern, travel’s direct demand engine, to provide marketers with an even stronger understanding of travelers as they research and shop across multiple devices. Combined with its 350 million global traveler profiles and billions of predictive purchase intent signals, Sojern utilizes the Tapad Device Graph™ to resolve the complex travel consumer journey, target travelers more precisely, and derive more actionable insights for its travel clientele. According to Sojern’s research, travelers visit hundreds of websites preceding their trip purchase, with some consumers reaching upwards of 450 touchpoints prior to booking. Sojern’s partnership with Tapad will help unify these touchpoints across devices, enabling travel brands to more effectively nurture and engage potential buyers during the purchase process, regardless of which device they use. “Sojern’s been focused on travel for over a decade, helping brands activate predictive purchase signals and leverage our traveler profiles into effective performance marketing campaigns,” said Mat Harris, Sojern’s VP of Product, Enterprise Solutions. “The cross-device insights we gain from the Tapad Device Graph provide a valuable tool for our customers to reach travelers across devices in real-time and at scale, on the right device.” Prior to selecting Tapad as its cross-device partner, Sojern surveyed several probabilistic and deterministic cross-device vendors and performed an extensive global test. The test was an examination of scale, match rate and several other factors, which enabled Sojern to learn as much as possible about each vendor. After examining the final test results, Sojern selected Tapad based on its excellent test performance, tried-and-true experience in the market and complimentary business model. To date, Sojern has already seen an amplification rate of more than 600 percent as a result of the integration, meaning that the Tapad Device Graph is connecting an average of six or more device and browser IDs for every one existing Sojern ID. “Not only is Sojern a compatible partner for our singular Device Graph capabilities, but they are also an incredible data partner to help expand our work in the travel industry,” said Pierre Martensson, SVP and GM of Tapad’s global data division. “Working with the team at Sojern allows us to solve a true challenge within the travel industry today: creating a unified view of customers so travel brands can better understand and access their key audiences at every point along their path to purchase.” Contact us today
